Clearly, I don't feel like doing anything useful....
I'm totally stymied by everything I could (or should) be doing right now.
After two wonderful days in Costumer Candyland with Sarah and Bess and Edmond and everyone else at Bristol, I'm totally enthused about jumping headlong back into total elizabethan research whoredom and I have a strong desire to drop everything and start a detailed journal of me trying to follow the directions (Ha! Me? Follow directions?) from the Tudor Tailor book. Unfortunately, I have to finish a fairy costume before this sunday when the Friends of Faire "Fantasy Folk" costume contest runs. I'm organizing (Ha! again... Me? Organize?) the thing, so I feel like I ought to dress like I know something about the topic. The costume is also the project for the Bridal Couture class I took over the summer, and I have to finish it. My teacher was cool enough to let me do a costume for the class, but I ended up asking for an incomplete so that I could finish the wedding gown I was being paid for. Irony, there....
The felting and silk paper books I ordered from Amazon, to use in my textile surface design class arrived over the weekend, and I totally want to play with everything in them. Unfortunately, the class has been cancelled due to lack of enrollment. Darn these teenage students who won't take anything that's not necessary for graduation.
All the yummy rovings I ordered from Winderwood Farms' ebay store arrived today, and I desperately want to haul out my spindle. Pity about the fairy costume, all the work that still needs to be done to put the Fashion Department rooms back together before classes start, and the classes that start on thursday. :(
And can anyone recommend a good mac client for LJ? Or tell me how to link to other LJers? And why in the world does LJ have moodicons for "quixotic" but not for "stymied" or "thwarted"?
