24 hours and counting

This time tomorrow cedarsong and everflame will be picking me up to head out for first day at Faire. Woo! Gotta get some good sleep tonight.

Dancing went well yesterday! I had a fun time. Thanks to the bazillion people who came out. You all rock. It was wonderful to finally meet starwyse.

A non-LJ friend of mine sent me an email with some Out Of Office replies. I wish I could use a couple of these. I would if I knew they'd only go to people I knew and not to potential grad school applicants:

I am currently out at a job interview and will reply to you if I fail to get the position. Be prepared for my mood.

You are receiving this automatic notification because I am out of the office. If I was in, chances are you wouldn't have received anything at all.

I will be unable to delete all the unread, worthless e-mails you send me until I return from holiday on 4 September. Please be patient and your mail will be deleted in the order it was received.

Thank you for your message, which has been added to a prolonged system. You are currently in 352nd place, and can expect to receive a reply in approximately 19 weeks.

I've run away to join a different circus.

I shall finish the last bodice today during my lunch (it's just handwork stuff so I brought it with me to work). And then: Sewing for My Costumes is Done!

And, um. That's it. Feeling much better mentally and emotionally today. That pleases me. Oh, and another new icon. This one, like the champagne bottle one, is from my NOLA trip. Full image here.

Grrrrr

I brought my last bodice with me to work today so I could stitch the bottom closed during my breaks and lunch.

Apparently the spool of thread I set out didn't make it into the bag.

Rats.

A thousand words. Or more.

Oh, and kimonthejourney has a seething-anger-inducing quote here. To my more right-sided friends: I'm sorry. I cannot see how you can stand by this president. Call yourself a conservative, a republican, a right-winger, fine. You're entitled to your own beliefs on how government should be run. On some of those points I will actually agree with you. But if you stand by This Fucking Lousy Excuse For A Leader there is Something Wrong With You. You may have a right to your opinion, but I'm sorry, your opinion is WRONG.
