Counting down the minutes until I can go home to bed

120 as of the moment I'm typing.

Hey, a girl has to feed her brain too!

Random thoughts from my brain

So, I've lost just enough weight (again) that my current underwear is too big, but the next size down is too small. I firmly believe that underwear - actually, all clothing - should come in half sizes, just like shoes!

I like the daily planner that I bought last year, so I thought I'd save money this year and just buy a refill for it. After going to three bookstores & two office supply stores, I *FINALLY* found one at Office Depot... and it cost just as much as buying a new planner would have. Actually more, because I would have at least gotten a 10% discount and B&N if I bought a planner there. I bought it anyway, but it really irked me. I mean, shouldn't there be some sort of eco-discount for reusing something & buying a refill for it rather than adding more junk to the landfill?!? On the other hand, the cashier was a cute little tattooed boy who lit up when he saw my Doctor Who inspired shirt. We had a good chat about our favorite Doctors and tattoos.

Here's a pic of the design on my shirt:

Tom Hiddleston & Michael Fassbender are trying to kill me. They both have several movies coming out that I desperately want to see. I may actually have to break down and set foot in a movie theater.

Nightshade is getting possessive. I think she knows I'd adopt all the feral cats if I could and she's making sure that they know I'm *HER* human and she's not sharing. Some of them have gotten brave enough to let me touch them - just for a second - before they run away. Or they'll brush against my leg when I'm filling their food bowl. Anyway, now there's an adorable little black kitten in the bunch. She looks like an even smaller version of my Shady-girl, right down to the white spot on her chest! I don't care what Shady thinks; if I can catch that little one, she's living inside with us. Period. In the meantime, Shady comes and stands by my feet while I talk to the outside kitties and hisses if they start to come over.

Tune in later for another installment of Random Thoughts...

Swapoween & Stitching Progress

So, I've signed up for another exchange with the Chaotic Goddesses! I'm looking forward to this one too. And a Halloween swap seemed like an appropriate post to share my Chat Noir progress:

I'm about halfway done with the cat itself. Hopefully I'll be working on the border the next time I post a progress update! There should be an update on my SAL piece and La FLeur in the next day or two.

Ooops, I Did It Again

I checked the Chaotic Goddesses page and found another exchange to join. They're not the sponsors of this one, but I think it's cool that they let their followers know about other programs running. I hope I get accepted into this one- I found it at the very last minute, so the registration may have closed- because I *LOVE* Etsy!
