+ Today's Costume: Phantom of the Opera. Yes, The Phantom. I was going to do something else, but I stumbled upon a mask and remembered that I'd gotten some velvet cloth, so I found a pin to make the cloth a cape, cut off half the mask, put on my fake top hat and a nice black suit and bow tie and VOILA. I love having random bits of costume materials at my disposal. <3 The mask is currently on my hat, though, as I need to be able to see and work today and I have glasses. It looks nice up there, though. I KNEW it was a good investment getting that tuxedo shirt, too.
+ I am slightly paranoid because someone honked at me as I was crossing the street from the parking lot to get to my workplace. But then, maybe it was the costume? I don't know, it always startles me. Don't honk at me if you see me, it freaks me out. XD
+ My mom wants to make my Terra shoulderpad armor things. Which is good, because I don't have the first clue how to start on them. I'm glad one of my parents is an artist.
+ Since I really can't do much else with the modules until, I don't know, people start coming into work (everyone's sick, it seems, which is troublesome), I think today might be spent entirely on typing up my design methods so that they don't panic when I go back to school (which makes me head reel a little at how much I've done since the summer... god I love my job).
+ I haven't written much in two days, so if I start having mind wandering today, I might want to hop on that. Considering my works in progress, and all.
+ Found a program to help me re-tag my music, which was getting out of hand. Considering that I will be moving all my shit to a new computer soon enough, this is good.
+ Oh, and we ORDERED MY NEW COMPUTER. I AM GOING TO HAVE A DOCKING STATION AND A WIRELESS KEYBOARD AND IT IS PRETTY!
ETA: Found not only the right kind of blonde wig, but I FOUND BLACK OPERA GLOVES. Meaning, I can finally do my Audrey Hepburn outfit. Let's hope it's not ridiculously cold in the next three days.
To Do:
+ Write something. I have two that are time sensitive! Write those. Hopefully. Especially theimaginarybeasts submission. I love the theme. Oh, do I love the theme. It's daunting, because the writing there is really rather good. *crosses fingers*
+ Possibly make icons, because I have The Urge. I love knowing some layer modes and coloring tricks now!
+ Mail out letter? Find out letter postage rates, as I fear my stamp might be out of date.
+ Start a list of the programs that MUST be installed on the new computer, make sure that you can get the install files for a lot of them. It'll be a week or so until it gets here, but always prepared!
+ Tag some music in down time, which always happens despite my efforts to always have something to do.
+ Make Mom soup when I get home, as she feels sick. Which is sad because she was supposed to go to the costume shop with me. :<
+ Finish application/profile forsouthofbakerst. Hypochondriac Ukrainian born tinkerer ftw.
+ Email bosses, make sure they didn't die.
Random:
+ Oh the things my communities link me to. Am I ever so glad I found![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)

Date: 2007-10-26 07:53 pm (UTC)Congratulations on the computer and getting your costume items. Opera gloves are so awesome. Way back when there was a pair in my family old play cloths. Good luck with the weather for the costume.
Don’t worry about the writing project your original stuff is good, I’m sure you won’t have any problems.
I hope your mom feels better.
