The only difference between uptown and downtown, is therapy and Valium

Today I went shopping for more supplies, and picked up my machine from the shop, so now I can get some serious work done! I keep thinking San Japan is this weekend, but isn’t in fact till next weekend, so I have time to work on a few more little things for one of my costumes, and not have to stress out.

In my depression this week I picked at my nails more than I should have and their super sore, and despite sewing with a finger condom on (those plastic things they give you when you work in a restaurant and you cut your finger) it hurts to touch things (even type) So I’m going to make a bit of a break until tomorrow.

Let’s start with today Haul from shopping!

A bunch of tees! I’ll let you guess what the blue and orange are for :P. but other wise a few tees, a white hoodies, a dress shirt and skirt for my Rally costume all these came from the thrift store ( Savers on N. Burnet).
2 yards of NEW G.I. Joe Fabric, which I’m going to turn into a night gown for myself.
As well as two great graphic novels (from halfpricebooks.com) World of Warcraft GN 3, and Elric by Micheal Moorcock. I love his book The Cornelius Chronicles, so I felt I should go this a fair shot too.

Tomorrow I’m getting my new bed delivered, my car fixed, and the exterminator is coming by to take care of those pesky scorpions that keep invading my house. If they would just stay outside I wouldn’t have to kill them, but alas. This is my house.
Slowly but Surely things are looking up.

I’m proud to day I have slept less than 5 hours over the last three days. I’m praying for sleep tonight. :(

Have a comic shelf? Share it! Nothing says more about a person, than what kind of books he/she reads, and how they are organized!

Tomorrow I’m hoping to dry run another one of my costumes to make sure I got everything ready.

On Etsy I’ve been putting together some fun, and pretty geeky, treasury listings! check them out here!

Well that’s all for now, I’m going to go (attempt) to sleep. If I’m back in a few hours, I was obviously unsuccessful!
