Better. Mostly. And mostly just feeling foolish.
The headache is gone.
I would feel better, however, if I hadn't spent six hours (five last night and one this morning) looking for my most recent bodice pattern. The sewing room is more organized than it's been in a year. But here's where the story gets funny.
Bodice 2005 made an immediate appearance, right where it was supposed to be! Filed away in the box marked "Dance, Costuming, Bodices." Bodice 2006 not so much. I tore the place apart, even though I hadn't used the pattern last year (since I was busy making![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
nottygypsy's garb), so it wasn't likely that it had fallen behind anything or gotten tucked away.
Now. Process that last bit, shall we?
I had the pattern for 2005. Right there. But the current bodice pattern? Nowhere to be found.
Except.
I didn't make myself a new bodice last year. I didn't make myself a new bodice pattern last year. Last year being 2006.
Therefore: There Is No 2006 Bodice Pattern To Be Found Because One Doesn't Exist. The "current" pattern was there all along, right were it should be, filed away neatly and tidily because I am a good secretary and organized beyond belief. I'm just really, Really, REALLY oblivious sometimes. And maybe not so good with numbers and years.
And you know what makes the situation even better? I didn't even realize that 2005 was the current bodice pattern until I was walking up the hill to work today and had a little Road to Damascus experience.
I blame the headache.
