*leans* Back from NC

Enjoyed the hell out of it -- but it's good to be home. I will say, if you're ever staying in Raleigh, the Marriott by the big mall has incredibly uncomfortable beds. We're all exhausted from sheer lack of being able to sleep.

I have a ton of work to do, and I have a mask to paint, a sock to knit, and a Barbie to make into Pele...

So, altering Barbie dolls?

Is like *way* more fun than advertised.

No, really.

I'm making mummy!barbie and americastopmodel!barbie and I want to make goddesses next. And an OompaLoompa.

Pele!barbie. Kali!barbie. Oh... Raven!barbie.

my to do list

is big enough that it's going to eat my head.

O.o

periodically I look at my life

and I go...

Is this mine? I mean, really? Do I live this life?

How very odd.

Man, I'm very heart-tender today

Which always means that the vicious evil people will come hunting me. They can smell weakness. ;-)

*turns off her phone and closes browser windows and put her head down to work*

Of course, maybe I just need a cup of coffee...

I have this position on hobbies

and when they cause stress, it's time to go find something else. Period.

(And yeah, someone was unexpectedly nasty to me and, after a little weep in that 'gee, I'm 5 and somebody said something mean' way, I'm going to bow out of the situation, but I hate the whole drama/meanness thing for ruining something that's supposed to be a fun, creative, non-writing outlet. I get enough assholes in my work; I require a No Mean Girl Zone in my arts and crafts, thanks.)
