Yikes! I have to update more often! I unfortunately haven't had a lot of exciting things to post about lately, but today I found out some of my designs got picked for the Future Fashion Folio for the next Costume Con! Pretty cool! I'm pretty excited to see if anyone picks one of them, and what they'll look like made up. I really wish I could go to Costume Con this year, it looks like it's going to be most awesome, but at least now I'll feel like I'm participating in some small way. :)
Much to my dismay, I decided not to try to do NaNoWriMo this year. Phooey. Really wanted to, but no time. Maybe next year!
On the bright side, the figure skating season has begun, and even though it's probably contributing to my general lack of time or will to do anything productive, it is mightily fun. I'm a little thrown for a loop (no bad pun intended!) by the Grand Prix schedule being entirely different this year - Skate America always used to be first! Now it's third? WTF? So I don't know if it all aired on network TV and I just missed it, or if they're only showing the ones with American skaters competing or what. But anything is better than nothing, and I hope to heaven that Worlds will be on NBC, because if I miss it again this year I think I might die, and I seriously don't want to have to give tons of money to my evil cable company for a new tier of useless programming just so I can see some skating. But anyway how awesome do all my favorite skaters look this so far this year?! Skate Canada was happiness itself for me, gold for Alissa Czisny and Patrick Chan! I love Rachael Flatt and Jeremy Abbott too, they both have great free programs this year. And I'm hugely tantalized by the glimpse they showed of that Russian ice dance team that won Cup of Russia this year. I'd love to see their whole program! They should show ice dancing on network TV, it's bigger than it's ever been in the US! Now is the time, c'mon people! Besides, I'm also dying to see what Meryl Davis & Charlie White are doing this year! I love them so, even despite Charlie's awful new haircut. Now, I'm no idle fangirl, but Charlie's mop of blond locks did add to the whole experience. Just sayin'. But no matter what they look like, I'm so excited for all my favorite skaters this season. Yay!
