Feb. 24th, 2003 10:36 amWell, I have heard back from the Chatelaine of Gyldenholt (my local SCA barony) and have decided that I'll start participating at next month's Pentathalon. Which is incidentally being held at my college. Am wondering if "Eleanor of the Roses" is a sufficiently period name... both for the ones in my cheeks and the thirty-plus ones I have planted and growing in the yard.
Prodded a bit more at the Yami no Matsuei fic last night. Jumped ahead a bit, actually, though not yet to the lemony bits. I need to decide if one of Hisoka's lines is justified and figure out what happens in the bit I, blocked, skipped over.
My grandmother may be coming home this week, which is good. I will need to see about getting an extra cushion for her chair, though I'm not sure what I can do about the toilet seat. I wonder if my mother's going to be able to schedule the carpets being deep-cleaned before her return?
Sewed velcro to the waistband of my petticoat last night, am quite pleased with its adjustability. Practiced a few swing steps in it, even. This month's Chobits calendar picture shows Chii in a similarly fluffy skirt of approximately the same length, except red. Hmm.... [I'm not that hot on the rest of the picture, but I like the redness of the skirt.]
Best friend has managed to score Kaim Tachibana's _Himuro no Sakura 1_ whilst in Japan. I am madly jealous. I WANT that book. Ah well. I shall find it someday. In the meantime, I've won my auction for Tamora Pierce's _The Realms of the Gods_ in HC/DJ. Only five more to go and I'll have them all....
_Lady Jane_ was released last week on DVD. It's on my want list. Next week comes the first volume of .hack//SIGN. Also want. But not buying. Yet.
Still waiting for the government to send its okay for my fiance's visa. It theoretically should arrive today; it's been two months to the day since they received it
