Gratitude catch-up. Plus faaaaaire.
Y'all, I have been feeling profoundly BLECH in the last few days. My body is flippin' out on me, I'm tired a bunch, and I frankly don't have the energy for the vast majority of the morons freaking out about the "WTC Mosque" and round twentybillion of "Obama is a Muslim 'cause I believe he is." My brain? It has not been in a calm place lately. I think I am going to impose on myself no Facebook and more limited Twittering until I don't feel the need to smack someone for ignorance through the intertubes. Anyhow.
18. I am grateful that I've at least been pretty productive in the studio. Getting things accomplished helps.
19. I am grateful for the eloquence of Keith Olbermann, who made me cheer during his Special Commentary on Park 51.
20. I am grateful for the ability to research and access facts when our prevailing media outlets have overwhelmingly been following a "it's okay to erroneously report so long as there's discussion!" path. Journalistic integrity, where have you gone? Oh right. To the comedians, I forgot for a minute.
Tonight is Annabean's wedding reception. Can't wait! In that spirit:
21. I am grateful for my Annabean, who has been an unfailing support since high school. She is most awesome, and deserves all the joy that the universe can heap on her.
Also, my dreaming about Faire has begun! As in actual dreaming, though this morning, I've spent about an hour tallying up how much it would be for me to plan out the lovely forest green outfit I was wearing in the dream. Probably something like $130-- I want to get a U-top with Persian sleeves from L Rose Designs and a matching 25 yard skirt from Tribe Nawaar. And maaaaaaybe a tassel belt. Which reminds me, I gotta get talk on my gahwazee coat rolling. In any case, I have a couple of major things to pay for before I purchase a green costume, so that's on the backburner, but I think it'll be a lovely shade on me when I do.
In any case, weather permitting, I'm planning on faire on Sept 5th & Oct 16th... though if local peeps are going on other days that I'm not working at the shop, I might try for three. I love faire so.
