It's a combination of randomly waking up before my alarm, which got me here on time, and being in the limbo where all of my work is waiting on other people, which means I don't really have anything to do right now. Sweet!
Angel's lame. His hair goes straight up, and he's bloody stupid!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The department here at work is freaking out over the re-IPing of the servers happening overnight. I have to be in between 8:30 and 9 am tomorrow so I can test my two databases to make sure there's no problems. Good thing is the manager (who is also going to be here and is testing a hell of a lot more than two databases, so he's no slacker) is providing goodies for those of us who are coming in. Others get to test the remote connections from home, including my direct boss, so they miss out on the free food.
This testing is a good thing, because it means I'll be up and dressed early and won't be here too long (as long as there's no problem with the testing--knock on wood!!) and can get my grocery shopping done on the way home.
I'll be on vacay next week since Mom's flying in tomorrow evening, so must get the apartment cleaning done tonight!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Supposably there's a big storm a'coming to town this weekend. I'm closing all the windows and laying in supplies!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Do you have enough weapons? And in case your food runs out, do you have a copy of To Serve Man?

That was my favorite Halloween costume ever--I wore a chef's apron and hat, and I carried a cookbook with a mocked-up dustjacket which read To Serve Man. I wore it to the bookstore to work my shift, and since I couldn't carry the book around while working, it was just assumed I was a chef. Oh, well, at least the boss thought it was funny when I came into the store to work.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, I've done as much construction of Aunty Entity's dress as I can before taping myself into it tomorrow. I feel dissatisfied with the shoulder thingies, but I'm going to try not to obsess.
Going through my provocateuse mail backlog (huge, I've been bad), and I found some from a woman who's a huge fan of Vikas Khanna (of whom I'd never heard) and managed to convince his camp to have him take some barefoot pictures for my site. She's such a happy fangirl right now.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
This cold can go away any time now.

Crazy Vincent used a lot of staples and glue in the contruction of his "couture-like" garment.
Hee! Good to know that my last-ditch "Must finish the alterations so I can wear this to the club tonight" efforts are used by "professionals".
ita, if you decide to glue any bits of your costume, be warned: some glues (like the ones for hot glue guns) glow under black light. Which can be a cool look, but only if you have a very steady hand when you apply the glue.
