coolTopic: No Topic Today!
Good thing I stayed home...it poured rain all afternoon! Dan came home soaked. It's turned warm again, about 20 and humid. Not bad at all, really. I'm going to try to go out today to Downtown Kitchener. Ben refuses to come with me, he can't handle the aggressive panhandlers. I don't enjoy being screamed at when i refuse to part with my hard earned money that some weirdo will use for crack or worse, but after a while you learn to tune it out.
I should mention I'm now working on a CLEAN KEYBOARD! It was so disgusting that the keys would stick to my fingers and i would pull them off...not quite, but they were a rather interesting shade of grey and pizza. Now it's just boring beige. NEW RULE! No more wanking while staring at internet porn, got that whoever the hentai is in the family!
In other not so disgusting news, I finished the sewing part of the lumberjack shirt. Now all i need to do is add eyelets and snaps and then lace the suede through the eyelets. Later today I will finish up the brown skirt. I'm happy I'm binding the raw edged rather than serging them, the fabric makes a ton of fuzz as it's going through the serger knife and I don't enjoy wool fuzz settling in my lungs as much as i used when i was younger.
Oh yes...CSI...it seemed to mostly go nowhere, didn't it. The whole point of the show was Grissom asking Sara to marry him...and we almost got a kiss from those two. This episode seemed more about developing characters and interaction than it did about solving crimes or violence or anything else. Which is okay, I suppose. Has Catherine gotten anything from her fabulously wealthy mobster dad yet? How about her mom? Is her mom now the what's the word for head gangster? big Carp? big fish? Whatever? Since fish made up a plot element...why did only that one guy have chesticles, shouldn't every guy in the area been sporting a nice pair? And that letter found on the scientist's computer that Catherine handed that guy...if it was found on the guy's computer, then there should not have been a signature in ink on the paper, especially if it had just been printed by the cops. OOPS!
And that's all for today. By Monday the New Burda patterns magazine will be up in english and there are some really nice pattern in it. Every once in a while they put out an issue that's a real keeper, filled with things that can be made over and over or things that are fashion classics. This one has a collection of classic cocktail party clothes, from formal to semi formal. It's a perfect magazine to hold onto for those times when you need a cocktail dress that looks special and can be made quickly. Most of the pieces look like they can be embellished and customized. The other companies should have their newest pattern up by monday, I hope Vogue has nothing as atrocious as that Peter Pan Getaway getup from Sandra Betzina again!
Time to go do things! Later!
