Let's get this stuff off my desk before work picks up again.... I hate doing so many at once, but work has been so busy.

I got my new boots yesterday! Wheee! They are so mighty and tall! I am quite pleased. Now I no longer have to design renfaire costumes that hide my feet. I can proudly show off those toes encased in oh so fancy shoes.

I'm thinking I should make a pirate persona at some point, now that I can wear pants. I would look fantastic! Yarrr!

Anyway, my excitement over shoes had me wandering over to pennsic stuff. Not that I could ever go, mind you. If I ran into certain people there (I know that despite the massive size of the place, I would somehow run into them every day.) it would create all sorts of omg!drama that I do not want to start up again. (It might be fun to join the sca though. Pooo to people who prevent me from trying new, interesting stuff!)

I guess I'll just wait for the next renfaire. Maybe if I start my costume early enough, I won't have a sewing panic like I did last year.

I have an hour left of work and I just really don't want to do anything. It helps that I ran out of things to do, but I know I should ask for more stuff. I don't know. Maybe I'll go fix that messed up spreadsheet.

I checked my bank account and it looks like saturn FINALLY cashed my check. Now I can spend freely again. Or pay bills. You know, stuff. (I guess that means I should find the bills.)

I think this weekend should be an adventure to find the other fabric store. That means I'll have to get dressed and stuff. Poooo. But I want to start ben's sister's embroidered pillow. And I am never against checking out the fabric selection. Maybe there will be something cute I can use for later.

I do want fabric to make myself a summer yukata. Not that I'll ever wear it. But it would be fun to make and cute to have. Oh, and must pick up more dye for feathers.
