ack!

The new devart layout is going to take a little getting used to. I don't know if it's better than the old one or not, but it's definitely... different.

Profound, ain't I? ;)

No new photography in a while because I have six rolls of film sitting on my desk waiting for me to be able to afford to have them developed. Anyone want to donate to Lilith's Film Developing Fund? I only need about $30, but it's more than I can get these days. This film has been sitting here for months. :(

Off to knit the night away.

Whew, that's a lot of new photos, huh? Well, more than I usually do in a batch. I *have* been taking pictures, I just haven't been doing a lot of scanning/uploading. There are two reasons for this: new boyfriend (complete with new relationship euphoria) and Christmas presents to make... lots of presents. I think this will probably be the last installment of photos before Christmas, but I'll try to take some photos in the meantime so I'll have some new stuff to put up in the new year. Happy Holidays!

Where the heck did summer go? The leaves are starting to turn and I haven't touched my camera in so long that... the battery's dead. I went out on a long drive, intending to take a bunch of photos, and when I was ready for the first one, nothing happened. So I need to wait until I have some cash before I can get a new battery. Feh.

Aside from that, life is wonderful. My fantastic friends got me tickets to Cirque du Soleil as an early Christmas/Solstice present, and it was amazing beyond words. It was another world. My Canadian boy is almost definitely moving east next autumn, and I'm looking forward to being able to see him on a regular basis. I'm loving my new car (2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser), and I've put almost eight thousand miles on it in five months.

I'm gonna get back to my knitting now. I should have some new pics up in the next month or two. Hopefully.

So, let's see, I think an update is in order.

I spent about a week with my Canadian sweetheart earlier this month, and once he moves to Ontario I'll be moving in with him. This will be either this coming January or sometime late in 2007.

A few days after he went back to Alberta, my best friend called me in a panic... the fabric she had ordered for a bridesmaid's dress from David's Bridal back in March *just* came in, but only 2/3 of it, and she had to leave for the wedding within three days. After making one very stupid mistake (not measuring her first) that cost me a day's work, I made the dress in one 26-hour marathon sewing session and got it to her with time to spare.

This week I've been getting a lot more culture than usual... went to see the Bolshoi at the Met on Tuesday, then to a play yesterday. Today was a little less posh, spent vacuuming out my car and re-arranging my sewing workshop. On Saturday I'll be off to the Northeast Maille Fest, and hopefully I'll take some decent pics while I'm there.

Two weeks (ish) of rest are coming my way, and then I fly out to Oregon to help a friend drive her stuff from there to Washington, DC. Cross-country road trip! Woo!

So this summer is one of the busiest I've had in a long time. I'm happy.  :clap:

Two weeks before the first RenFaire is not the time to be doing costume research, is it? At least my costumes for this year are mostly finished. My to-do list is down to: buy soles and attach them to shoes; trim tabs and attach to doublet; stitch trim to skirt; wash and press everything; embroider servant's pouch flap if time permits.

Ten days to get everything finished. I can do that, assuming I don't have sole issues. If all else fails, I'll pry the soles off my old (too tight and stiff) boots. Wish me luck, and don't expect to see any new photos until mid-July.
