try your best to hold on to sanity

A friend of mine posted something about enneagrams this morning and I couldn't remember what I was so I went to take a quiz to see. And I ran into the problem I run into everytime I take one of these personality quizes: costuming me is a very different person than real life me. Do I persevere until the job is done? In costuming, yes. In real life? Absolutely not. ...

the bold and the tired

It's Monday again. Working overtime Mon-Thurs this week to be off Friday... I think this is my first time doing this since I started working from home? Last year I had a bunch of extra time to burn at the end of the year so I didn't have to ration my vacation days. Anyway, the past week has been ALL JACKET ALL THE TIME! What jacket, you may ask? Because ...

that crying audio bit from tiktok

That's me today. Because I found these shoes for my disneybound Leia and they were too dang expensive and there's no way I'm spending that much but now everything else I look at is just (me crying thinking about the jordans). I think what I'm going to do is find some cheap plain white high tops and just do some silver vinyl rebel symbols for them on my silhouette. Anyway. ...

it’s a very useless post

Hey so remember how last Monday's post I talked about being sick with a head cold? Well just repeat that because I still have this freaking head cold. I was feeling much better by Friday of last week but then Saturday it came back with a vengeance - or rather, it came back with a migraine. I just felt absolutely awful all day Saturday, so that sucked. I say all ...

climbing in the garbage can

Got one more Christmas present from Chase. My work phone needed a case so Carrie Fisher in a garbage can seemed perfect. Got a good bit of sewing done this weekend. Not as much as I wanted... another storm, another migraine. But made good progress anyway. More work on the underdress. I decided to change the shape of the top and make it more curved - that straight across cut ...

its the final countdown

Sorry for no post yesterday. Had corporate in and I was so stressed I just couldn't add another "thing" to yesterday. So today is my last day of getting up and going to the office. Tomorrow I start working from home. Yay! There's a lot of crappy to what is going on at work but I am looking forward to working from home. Today in particular was awful. It was 21 ...

Happy Birthday Sims

When I did my birthday blog stuff last month, I had considered doing a post just about Sims stuff... but decided I didn't have enough content and just folded some of it into the "weird stuff" post. But then today I found out the Sims turned 18 on Feb 4! So what the heck, I thought I'd go ahead and show some of my fav Sims posts and screencaps from over the ...

A Non-Birthday Blog Post

It's been a bit since I did a regular post! I've been concentrating on getting the birthday blog posts up and going. So let me pick up since the last post. Chase and I split an amazon gift card from Christmas and I got this: Oh yes. It's good. And we got a lion hat for Luna. She hates it. But at least she enjoys it as a toy (she ...

Happy New Year!

GUESS WHAT! My blog is 20 years old now. It's in college. My earliest blog posts were late 97/early 98 and the oldest post I was able to track down to reupload was from January 8, 1998. I think next week I will do a big post about it for its birthday! So anyway, this weekend was rather lazy. Mostly because it was SO cold. Like seriously it was in single digits?! It's never ...

Sims Pets and Star Wars stuff

Ok so Chase got me Sims 4: Pets for for Christmas! He surprised me with it early, and then since they were on for 50% on Origin, I went ahead and got Get to Work, too. So now I have all of the Sims 4 expansions. Fun. So I wanted to make a new family so I could make pets to go with them. I started with a cat named Drake and a ...
