*cue silent scream of rage and incoherent flailing*

So, when I took two whole days off to go to SDCC, my boss took it upon himself to parcel out part of my job to my coworkers. If it was the filing, that I wouldn't mind. But NO.

He had them send out new contracts.

Which they totally screwed up.

And now they're coming back in the mail and I have to try to fix their messes.

Joy.

A Stitch In Time

Reading through my new old issues of Threads is kind of amusing. Back then it wasn't so completely a high-end home sewing publication. There are articles about knitting, crocheting, and quilting as well as about sewing clothes. The individual issues are actually not outdated and pointless; though styles have changed since then, I've already found three or four techniques I want to try. But the entertainment factor is also high. These magazines are from the nineties, you see. Pre-widespread Internet access. None of the ads have websites. And there are tips about using the holed strips at the edge of printer paper as measuring devices. Oh, the nostalgia!
