Progress

I got the trim sewn onto one side of the coat last night. Damn was that a pain. I still need to sew on the other side, sew in trim to the inside of the coat, sew trim to the side hem on my pants and fix the front with hooks to pull it back.

Its not perfect, but I don't think its too bad either. I wasn't able to find the perfect trim so I just improvised. This experience I think has taught me that though I like the planning and initial costuming work, I end up getting bored with a project and really annoyed with it at the end. I'm really looking forward to sewing a couple of Xmas presents that are simple day or weekend projects!

Heh, *then* paint my gun, *then* make my belt buckle. I also have to make that holiday themed hat for work. It looks like I know how busy my week and weekend will be, and all of this is after homework.

I won't have tonight to do anything, since we're going to The Lacuna Coil show. This kind of bums me out since I'm always so excited to just go home on Wednesdays, but I'm happy to finally be seeing Lacuna Coil too! I'm going to be taking my hubby out for a romantic Taco Bell dinner if time permits. :)

Figures!

I had to wear a suit today for a meeting, so I wore a black one. I figured, if I lost the blazer later on I wouldn't look too out of place at the show tonight.

It was a lunch meeting and lunch was to be provided, so I didn't bring a lunch with me, and didn't bring anything to amuse me during lunch (like homework or my Lord of the Rings book or some sewing stuff).

The meeting was just canceled :/

Looks like I'll be finding something interesting to eat in the Malden area instead . . . generally though, I try not to buy lunch since the money can add up fast. I wish the cafe in the hospital building across the street didn't suck so much - the one at Melrose is really nice, I'm so jealous :)

Neat!
