snowflake! curling! work! exciting shit
challenge #5 - resources!
most of these are from tumblr because i like tumblr even tho it's a terrible time sink.
omg that dress! - i've shared this before because i love it. mostly historical fashion tagged by decade (and sometimes just century), with occasional forays into red carpet fashion. the person who runs it has Opinions about celebrity clothes but i mean that as a positive. i judge and it makes me happy. (right now there's a lot of golden globes red carpet if that's your thing.)
hey, writers! - writing advice and tips and tricks and posts that (if you write) may or may not make you feel seen and also called out.
renegade publishing - fanbinders, by which i mean people who bind fanfic. i used to make books and the stuff here makes me go "i know how to do that!" and also "holy shit i could never do that". mostly i'm just jealous a lot because there are some really fabulous books here.
r/crossstitch - what it says on the tin. :D makes me go "i can do that!" and also "i don't have the patience to do that". sometimes people post pics of their floss stashes and i just want to reach into the screen and steal it all. sometimes i'm a dragon, what can i say.
in totally other news, i curled for the first time in three weeks on sunday and we lost. >.< it took most of the game for me to get my shit together and by then it was too late. i like my team, tho. afterwards during the broomstacking (when you sit and drink with the other team) we were talking about wedding food and having to cater to various incompatible diets, and someone said "if you want to make everyone unhappy, just serve gefilte fish", and i raised my hand and allowed as how i like gefilte fish. i got such a collective look of disbelief. hey, if you don't want your gefilte fish that is totally fine. more for me. >(((">
tomorrow i have my very first yearly evaluation with my main pi at work. (thank god i don't have to do this with all of them.) i haven't had a one-on-one work evaluation in YEARS. i have to fill out a self-evaluation form beforehand which i haaaate altho does anyone actually like doing them? we have an hour blocked off and i really hope it doesn't take that long. just tell me what i'm doing right, tell me what i could be doing better, and let me go on my merry way.
