I'm still here and alive. I made a tiny wristlet purse thing, embroidered and everything. Maybe someday I'll post pics. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Work is busy. I need a real vacation, though. I'm getting fed up with the paperwork and the bureaucracy. Home is good. We need to pick up the living room (still!), and the place ( Read more... )

We went to my parents' house for the Christmas holiday. As they live in the middle of nowhere, it was a pretty relaxing weekend. Lots of laying around watching bad Christmas movies and eating fattening foods. mangledpuppies, kcsdhottie (aka my little sister), and I made a quick trip to a Dollar Tree on Saturday after we got to the house; it must have been a fairly new ( Read more... )

*Our AC is fixed now. Why they had to arrive at 7a for a job that took an hour, I don't know. But though I'm sleepy, I no longer have to empty a bucket of water every 8 hours or risk flooding my apartment (not to mention the downstairs neighbours' apartment ( Read more... )

My luggage got delivered today. Five minutes after I left home to get back to work, according to my tracking information. So it's probably sitting on my porch, waiting the boy's arrival home, if anyone is looking for a lovely four-piece purple set.

Tonight I think I'm going to stay home alone. mangledpuppies is going to a bachelor party, most of my going out ( Read more... )

*My ears feel much better. No more pus or anything. It's awesome. I got some dinky little spirals to keep them from closing up. They're adorable, but it makes me sad that my lobes have shrunk so much. They were nearly at .5in and now they're maybe at 6gauge. Teensy ( Read more... )

I laid around on the couch most of today, listening to Jonathan Strange (only 6.5 more hours to go!). I did eventually get up to get zippers for some theoretical skirts, and I got a couple of half-price patterns for a wide variety of skirts. Some A-line and some tiered, gypsy-ish. A step toward more colour and patterns in my life, I think ( Read more... )

We leave for Canada in three days. In two days I get my hair done. Tomorrow I shall clean my home so that the_cyr isn't grossed out when feeding my cats. Tonight I shall finish my costume. Yay! Sometime in there I need to do laundry and pack, too. Vacations are hard work, yo ( Read more... )

I am sad today. I'm supposed to be at a photoshoot this afternoon for ZS, but I feel the crappy. So I'm staying home from that. My skirt should be worked on, but I don't wanna. My hairs need to be cut to the proper length, but boring. My house needs to be cleaned, but ugh. I just wanna go to H+M. So I might drop by on my way to the ARC for ( Read more... )
