Well that's fun

Spent a lot of the weekend working remotely, as we had a grant due at noon today. Came in kind of early today to help finish it; yup, I still have my ability to pull shit out of my ass under pressure, which proved useful considering that someone forgot about the sustainability plan. I also took care of all the references and put them together for everyone. Everyone crashed and headed home around 1pm, I'm still here because I have to meet one of the interns to go over his programming stuff. So that meant I've been writing and generally not doing a lot of serious work for the past couple hours because I put in extra hours this weekend. XD

So, other stuff!

- Fashionista pics. I'm linking because I don't feel like formatting. Feb 22 (in which I wear a wool skirt I found at a thrift store) and Feb 24 (in which I wear suspenders). I'm still figuring out flash with those photos, so.

- Empty Bellies Do Not Beget Genius. Good sentiment, and very very true.

- Achievement Porn. I'm not going to comment on this, because I think you should read it and form your own opinions. It gave me a LOT to think about.

- Jealousy's a Green-Eyed Bitch

- T Lo talks about ice skating costumes. A comedy in three acts: one two three.

- ff_kissbattle is still going on! I just filled out another prompt myself today. So I can write some EBCJ fics. Because Sev and Drakon are evil. Come on, there's still people without prompts filled out AT ALL. I'd fill out them, but some of them are for canons I don't know too well, so. (FFXII and FFX-2... I never finished FFX-2--or cared much about Those Three Random Guys They Threw In--and I've played very little of FFXII... plus I wasn't terribly interested in FFXII anyway). If this sounds like something you write, go do so!

- I also made some earrings this weekend, while I was waiting on dudes to send me shit (my weekend was a lot of sit around, wait, FREAK OUT WRITE STUFF FIND SOURCES, wait, eat nachos), I'll take pics later. I kind of don't want to part with any of them. I went and got some more hardware for them (while my stuff is primarily made from recycled and random stuff, I use new stuff for like, the bits you put in your ears... because that's sanitary). If I get off my duff I may work on the hats I'm going to sew (nice wide-brimmed ones for spring!). And finish the vest I started like a week ago. The fallout from working on it is behind me on a table in one of the fashionista photos. XD

- Goodwill gifted me with another picture frame (I have a TON of art I'm trying to frame) and I caved and bought a couple new frames (on sale... frames are so expensive otherwise) and a pair of very steampunk wool shortpants that I can't wait to wear (dry cleaning them first... they're dry clean only and from goodwill, so yeah). Now my giant cat watercolor has a frame and it's lovely. Haven't figured out which of the art I want in the other frames yet. And need to wait until poster frames get cheap, as I don't want to ruin my awesome Audrey posters. Man, to have a place where I can put up all my art at once...

- Oh, and fake flowers and replacing my lightbulbs with brighter ones? Make me so very happy. Soon I will put up my tube lights!
