back in the sand
Sep. 26th, 2008 02:41 amApparently I've had my head stuck in the sand for a while. I just clued into
*US financial disaster. Me, tonight: Holy Crap! Did Bush get a payout to allow this subprime thing to go unchecked? and take over WaMu so JPMorgan could buy it? Enquiring minds want to know.
*SCA: apparently there are issues/drama in various SCA sandboxes and I've been merrily oblivious until the last few days. (Go me!)
*does Obama have a sidekick yet? I saw a bumper stiker that said something like "Hidden" or "Bidden". Both ideas made me laugh.
*What alien planet did Palin come from? I wouldn't hire her, so why would I vote for her?
*you mean we really need to outlaw texting while driving? wow. Becomes the law Jan 1, 2009. That means we spent tax-payer money to pass that law.
I'm staying in my sandbox and sticking my head back in the sand. Ignorance really is bliss.
and for those of you who didn't send me your cell numbers when I lost my phone and you breathed a huge sigh cuz I no longer had your numbers? My phone came home today (via US Mail). ha! Gotcha!
And for my personal wackiness, I've been doing power embroidery for months. That's done and now my Muse convinced me I'm a slacker. I surveyed my puny SCA wardrobe and got rejuiced to do the linen chemise and I'm almost finish with the last bit of Italian hem stitching. I finally washed the blood out of my partlet (cut my hand and bled all over myself over a year ago). I'm in the process of tearing apart my wool cloth socks and reconstructing them by hand with linen thread and tacking down raw edges. Next: finish Opus piece, finish 2nd Campi dress (started, bodice done), finish embroidery on apron. Woot. Then I'll go back to back-log pieces for friends.
Yeah.. clearly I had to be pulling stuff apart and redoing by hand. Cuz that makes sense when you have NO free time. But I can't help myself. Oh, and in other bits of my non-existent free time, I'm redoing my website. It's not "viewable" yet, so don't bother poking around. But I miss teaching, so I'm going to use it to pimp myself out to teach workshops in other chunks of my (non-existent) free time.
