When you first look at the calendar, you think, "Oh, a month to move? That's a long time."

It's not. Not when you work a day job and you don't actually get weekends as such (most of my days off are not consecutive, and it's harder to actually get what you need to do done in a single day, because you know it's all the time you have and you'd kind ( Read more... )

What I really didn't need in my life right now is car problems ( Read more... )

I took tomorrow off so that I would have two days off in a row, and would be able to get stuff done without stressing out completely since I'm losing half of my day to the tournament on Saturday. Which is awesome and exciting but time-consuming, and I wouldn't want to have to try and do all of my chores and errands in one afternoon. Plus this ( Read more... )

All I want to do right now is sleep. I woke up at about 4:15 am last night, and made the mistake of checking Twitter, and of course it was madness because of what was going down on in Boston. I didn't fall asleep again until around 5 am, and then my alarm went off at 5:30 because I'd agreed to go into work early ( Read more... )

I really hate when I have only one day off at a time, because it means that I end up with a giant list of stuff that needs to be done that day, and very little in the way of down-time. *grumble* At least I don't have to worry about Easter festivities, as I am not in any way religious, have no children, and my family-of-choice that I live with is ( Read more... )

I made sticky notes, but the trouble with Sticky Notes is that once you delete it, you have no record of what you did. So I'm making a list as well, so I can have the satisfaction of seeing everything crossed off as well as the satisfaction of having my desktop cleared of all the Sticky Notes ( Read more... )

I have a dilemma. I'm trying to do a Hawkeye costume, which will include his jacket from the beginning of the movie. I have found the actual jacket, but I need to put the patches on the sleeves. Now, there are two different SHIELD logos. One is the one they used for Black Widow's costume in Iron Man 2, and one is the one they use in The ( Read more... )
