totally tool'en
Oh my gosh. I want to crawl into a hole and sleep for days. Yesterday started off not so bad. Slept in - apparently never set my alarm. Figured out the sizing and darts on the bodice finally! I fiddled with the skirt some and added three gores to give the skirt some more flowyness; I liked the affect in the mock-up so we'll see if it translates well into the actual dress. I would imagine that it would, and the weight of the fabric will hopefully make it all hang nicely. I'll probably sew some of it tonight; mainly the sheer fabric to the backing and zigzag the edges since I don't own a serger.
I got to go to my small group Sunday for the first time. It was nice, sort of small and a bit awkward at times, but I met some nice people. One of whom is an avid fan of the Tool Academy! We're getting together tonight to watch the latest episode.
Also went and caught the Whip It! movie with two of my friends; one of whom is a derby ref still. It was a cute movie - not really accurate on the rules, definatly more theatrics. Not a whole lot of hitting or speed for the actual bouts they showed but it was fun and I think it'll be good for the sport. Afterwards they both came back to my place and I proceeded to introduce both of them to the Tool Academy. They didn't leave until well after 1am. Tons of fun - but man o man am I tired!
I'm making plans to maybe meet up with some other NaNo peoples before November for some pre-November prep. We'll see if it really happens!
Lunch is over - need to do some more work. Hoping for a nap after work, a bit of sewing and then Tool Academy!

About Me
- Cid
- Grew up traveling to rodeos with my parents. I've gone across the world thanks to my gypsie feet. I feel sometimes like I've done everything & nothing. I've played roller derby, traveled parts of the world, have four degrees. I've done some things most people will never do in their lives & still I want to do more. I want to work with orphans & teenagers again. I'm a Christian. I have a lot of tattoos. I like art therefore I want to be art. I love people. I started writing years ago when I was a kid. I think at the time it was an outlet for me; I found escape in my word & the worlds I created. Eventually I just started to like creating stuff & that's when I started sharing it with other people. Now I think I write every day. I want to do NaNoWrMo this year. I'm also learning how to knit. I think I'm on my way to being an eccentric old woman who runs around the world doing silly cazy things and knitting while she does them. Be on your guard I have knitting needles!
