A sense of accomplishment

The concensus seems to be in favor of Style #4 (see yesterday's post). GK agrees. I have yet to decide where I'm going to have it done---I'm long out of touch with any stylists had a rapport with---but I have a few weeks to contemplate it.

I played hooky from church today and drafted all the notes I've made for the SPN Season 4 AU/crossover. Almost 7K words, and I'm just getting started. My goal is to start posting it before the "real" S4 starts, not that I think Kripke's version will be anything like mine.

The curtains I had up in the front windows of my office for the last couple of years were starting to disintegrate, so I bought a new tension rod---the old ones were held up with push-pins---dug a length of simple off-white fabric out of my stash, grabbed some cafe rings, of which I have a respectable stash---and got it taken care of. The side window needs something to match, but as it is, it's much improved. These new curtains are quietly opaque, and being off-white, are in line with what I eventually want the room to be.

I need to work on my room...it's a hot mess, and it's making me crazy that I can't find things. Plus, I need to do laundry, because I have no idea what I'm going to wear to the Posh Brits training...which I *did* manage to get moved to Tuesday, go me. (Someone else needed to trade Tuesday for Wednesday, go them!) I have to BE there at 10 AM, sit through training, kill 3 hours, and work my shift. Thankfully, I'll have Wednesday to recover and don't have to make the trip JUST for training.

I don't mind spending an evening in my room, because a) it's where the A/C is, and b) last payday I invested $6 in a "new" lamp. It's vintage, an etched-glass stem like a candlestick on a pressed-glass base, topped with a simple off-white shade that I already had. It's subdued light is just right, especially for snuggling up with some erotica at 3 AM.

Okay, time to go do something useful....

Not productive, but damn fun

Resist temptation? Who, me?
