I am getting dressed up and going out tonight! I'm not going to dance AT ALL, which makes me a little sad, but I know is the right thing to do. But I'm going out! I get to see people! Wheeee!

(EDIT: I just realized this means that I could dress up in an impractical-for-dancing manner. Ooooh. Time to go stare at the wardrobe.)

A look inside my brain: last night, while waiting to drift off to sleep, my brain goes "Hey, remember that one black skirt? The one you haven't worn in, like, a year? How about adding rows of black ruffles on the back panel, and two rows of black velvet buttons in the front? That sounds like a good plan." So now I have a new sewing project. On top of the gazillion other sewing projects. First I need to check my stash of button blanks and make about 20 black velvet buttons ...

I managed to get some writing done last night, yay! I have blown the deadline I set for myself, thanks to the continuing rounds of the Plague, but am determined not to fret about it. It is not the end of the world if I take more time to work on it and have more to send off. IT ISN'T, BRAIN, SHUT UP WITH THE FREAKING OUT, OKAY?

Tumblr just weirded me out a bit, in a nostalgic manner. An old photo of me in my big-haired, quasi-Deathrocker stage just surfaced on a Tumblr I follow. The photo has been online for a few years now, but I don't remember if I ever posted it on Tumblr. Wacky! Hey

jola, I'm assuming your Big Hair Challenge is about current-day big hair, not images from the Wayback Machine?

I spent today writing something for the GCS site, answering all sorts of emails relating to GCS things, and job-hunting. Oh, and I walked up to Neptune Coffee and back, because I wanted a double-tall iced americano AND I figured that getting Out Of The House would be a good idea.

Tonight, I am ... going to work a little bit more on some GCS writing, do some alterations on that cute stripy Ben Sherman blazer I geebled about a while ago, and have a comfort movie playing on the tv. (Perhaps Moulin Rouge? I haven't seen it in ages ...) I am also going to indulge in some absinthe, and maybe a piece of chocolate.

The Great Re-Decorating that

maiaarts helped me with, while for photo and film purposes, also has made the library feel much more like "my" space. It always was, but now it is decorated in a very Cupcake Goth sort of style, including turning the big table into a more enticing workspace for me. Now let's just hope that because the space is so enticing and decorative, I'll do better at, erm, putting things away in their proper places, and not letting heaps of clutter build up.

Oh! I'll post a more detailed reminder tomorrow, but as a quick nudge: The Clang-Bang Cabaret is this coming Saturday night at the Rendezvous Jewelbox Theatre! It would be lovely to see you there.

When real things happen to imaginary people

Not using the Leeches icon!

Again, no clever title, and I've used Stuff and Things rather a lot.
