Less than bleh ;p

So we found some NyQuil squirreled away in the bathroom earlier, so I can knock myself out tonight and sleep like the dead! YES ;_; I am feeling somewhat better, after finally getting some sleep. It's kind of annoying how it seems to take me 12 hours of trying to sleep in order to get 6 hours of *actual* sleep. ;p

I am going to work tonight, which is probably not the greatest idea in the world, but eh, whatever. It's Tuesday, it'll be easy. And I'm really bored and frustrated with sitting around doing nothing. And money's good, too.

The costume goes slowly. All my pieces are cut, and I attempted to do the stay-stitching of the necklines today, but the sewing machine kept snagging after like 2 stitches. This does not bode well for our hero. Maybe I'll just sew at the Craft Center tomorrow and Thursday--it looks like a fairly simple pattern, so it shouldn't take long to build the shirt. The hardest part will be the gold/yellow detailing, which I'll probably hand-sew, and I can do that anywhere I want to. :)

If I had some more yarn, I'd do some knitting, but the yarn I currently have is too skinny. BOO. I hate being sick.

It does that a lot if you have it threaded wrong (I did that a lot - I'd forget to pull it up on the tension thingy and it kept dying on me). What kind of material are you using?

I'm making it out of satin. And yeah, I was a bit unsure of how the thread should be strung through... ^^;

I can come up there during a commercial on Angel tonight (you said you might not be back for Smallville? ;_; ), and make sure you're threading it correctly... I'm not sure if the satin would be a problem or not, but knowing my machine... picky thing. :)

Heh, I changed my mind about what I felt up to doing today, so we could check it out earlier, if you're around the building beforehand? :)

Sure! I have class until 6, but I will be around shortly thereafter. Whenever you want to, just drop by Sean and Elaine's - I will be there. :)
