I passed my big hard "Are you smart enough/capable for a teaching liscence" test!

On Friday, my parents, Tony, Arch, Greg, and I went to the Crosstown Showdown. It was a cold, but fun game. Especially since the Cubs won. The only thing that made me sad was the fact that some Sox fans started to get pretty inappropriately vulgar when they began to loose. I didn't understand the need for it. Yes, the one person who ( Read more... )

About three weeks ago, I made a chain for Crystal. Now, three weeks later, my mandrels (Mandrels I'm missing) that I used to twist the wire into coils. I have no idea where they are and I can't work on my line without them because I need very specific jumprings. I don't get how I could have lost all three of them.

From there, I headed down ( Read more... )

I just put in my first zipper ever and it was so amazingly easy! That just made the whole not working collar issue go away and made me feel so much better.

I had a craptacular day. Mom was home today because the weather was really bad. So while she was, I decided to take advantage and ask for advice. I was working on the stand up collar for my Full Moon costume for ACEN and things went really shitty really quickly. Because of a miscommunication between Mom and I, I put the collar together wrong ( Read more... )
