Baby, That's The Way You Are
Trying a new shampoo/conditioner. My hair smells all hair-dresserish and feels... actually, pretty nice.
I missed my lecture today. I stupid. So very stupid.
Beta is so cute!!
Anyway, not a lot to report day-wise. I don't develop a social life until tomorrow. But I was recently informed that a. The house was indeed being sold, b. it wasn't being sold until summer and c. we'd probanly be moving either to this place in croydon or some other nearby hidey-hole. I've never liked the idea of Croydon much - I'm sure it's a nice neighborhood and all that... Just the old primary school gang wars. Yes, primary school gang wars. It was really quite ridiculous, but the year 4/5 class managed to turn the place into a veritable warzone - Croydon vs Woodville. Wierd.
I'm thinking of colouring this picture in reverse - Do the background first and then make the forground characters fit it.
I've been looking at some oriental patterns lately. I want to make a dress, or at least a top. I saw some gorgeous fabrics at DK that would make an uber top - Perhaps that'll be my project next holiday. That and the mask-making. And I've still got some paterial left over - I'm sure I'll find something to do with it though. I have this strange urge to make a fur suit. No yiff enabling though, thankyou very much. I think that's a bit beyond my tastes.
So many things I want to do... So little time to do them in. The fact I don't have a sewing machine also dampen things, as I'd have to spend time at Ledi's place to sew anything and appart from being unfair it's also somewhat dejecting.
HENRI!!!!
