Today's favorite word: discombobulate
I might not be very popular, but my fellow anime characters rawk. From
stimps,
My weekend: Friday night, a friendly gathering, half of whom were (believe it or not) non-LJers, although one confessed to starting his own blog. Just not on LJ. We had a sporadic conversation about "favorite words." Sporadic conversation meaning every once in a while, someone would come up with a new favorite word--"poppycock", "persnickity"--and interrupt the current topic.
Saturday a wonderful lunch with
radcliffe. Very nice to see her again. Had a nice time at
_mac_ and
stuology's party, but as always, I went home before the fun started. Sunday, got lots of sewing done for Cairo on the Kaw. I will not allow myself to get into this situation if I do this show next year. I don't mind sewing nearly all the costumes, but I'm not going to do it with less than a month before the show. No. I've had no time to practice the choreographies. Sucks. At least I already knew (mostly) the finale number or I would be screwed.
Hopefully just a few more hours of work on those costumes. After the show (I am counting the hours until Sunday evening, believe me), I can start working on RenFest costumes. I want at least 2 different whore outfits (I know from past experience I can't stand to put on the outfit I wore the previous day--shudder) and 2 different bellydance outfits. Three bellydance outfits if I want to have a standby in case of a rain day. Heads-up: I might need some help fitting the muslin for my bodice. I know
radcliffe has zero time, but if anyone else has experience with this sort of thing? I have no idea what I'm doing here and would very much appreciate some guidance.
Margaret Cho and I agree on the Martha Stewart BS. Thanks to
shrijani for the link. Actually, no. Hm. After a careful re-reading, there's a lot in there that I don't agree with. I kinda got swept away with the first paragraph and didn't read through to the end as well as I should have. Let's say I agree with parts. But I don't think Martha Stewart is a political prisoner.
UPDATE: Two. More. Hours. Is it any wonder that I'm ready to throw myself off a bridge when I get to hear this song at least twice a day?
