watching Trippin the Rift, hoping that maybe Venture Bros will be on tonight, and putting hair on a 5.5 inch porcelain dollhouse doll. :) She's going to be a rockabilly chicky if I can make the dress right.

Waiting for my ride to the restaurant to come. Ha, going to a restaurant and just ate tacos. It's a good technique to use if you don't want to eat there by spending too much. I'm good for some appetizer right now :D

At home. I proofread my bf's resume and coverletter. Had honeycombs cereal (healthy!). And I'm now sewing on my skirt again. I'd done the side-seams and the waistband...and found out it was tooo huuuge. So, I had to rip out the waistband, and am taking the side seams in another inch, and then cutting off the excess fabric. After that, it's the bias tape waistband and the bias tape hem, and I'm done! Whew.
Hopefully I can get it done by Sunday.

And now I'm at work. I had some string cheese and a muffin, and some diet pepsi. checked out glitter, and threadbanger, TWOP, and rickey.org. Re-Watched the Mia Michaels routine from last night's SYTYCD.
Oh, yeah. I should actually keep doing this thing they call "work." This thing that pays the bills n stuff? Hee.
Oh, and I'm wearing my sunglasses at work, b/c my regular glasses are getting new lenses in. So I'm confusing a lot of people lately.

And here I am at home, again. I'm, well, here. And I'm working on sewing my bias tape waistband to my skirt. Which is so not gonna be done by Sunday. (Another board I go to posts pictures of finished crafts on Sunday. It's a good motivator.) So, oh, well, it gets done when it gets done. :) Bias tape is AMAZING. I'm just hand-stitching double-fold bias tape to the waist, and then will use 1/4" elastic. Then, bias tape on the hem to finish off the hem. No folding the hem! Woo!
And then I have tap class at noon. After that, I need to buy a little metal shopping cart (I call it a "granny cart" because you see lil old ladies use them all the time.) I totally busted the back wheel off our old one. Whoops. It's nearly impossible to repair - 5 spokes popped out, and some are bent.
And then maybe I can do some laundry. Because I need the granny cart to take my stuff to the laundromat.
***Edit:
Hmm, maybe I can buy the granny cart *before* tap class. Duh.

i do that too. Except , most of the time , its when my alarm goes off , and i imagine my self waking up and turning the alarm off. for about ten minutes , then i fall asleep. then i wake up and forget it's even there. I come back home and i realize my alarm is on. wait... its been on all day....
i am very absent-minded
i once wore my flip-flops to softball , because i seemed so used to them.
i just finished reading the LAST harry potter. SPOILER ALERT.....

yea but you can do it basically anywhere as long as whatever program you're using has a pencil tool. the hard part is cleaning it all up so its 1px all around and then being able to add partial transparency in the right places so it looks more pro.
since i'm doing it all (its a big project, pix art is just one little part of it) in photoshop, importing it from paint would be a pain since
1. ms paint has a default white background, so the onyl way you get partial transparency is by using grey, and it would be hard to fix withour those evil layer masks i hate
2. resizing and moving etc would be a pain because it won't automatically follow the pixels i made originally, so it could lose quality/pixelatedness
uwah sorry for ranting XD;; and your right, ms paint is probably best for plain px art because that's basically all you get~
*is a perfectionist*
