Almost got the sewing project finished in one weekend. Almost. The problem is that there's a topstitching step in there, and I ran out of thread the right color and don't have anything else close enough to match. But I did everything but that topstitching on Maggie. I would've done the topstitching on her too, but I only have three bobbins for her and they're all full. Must get some more long bobbins.

Went to see Harry Potter 8 today. A good conclusion to the series. I was crying in appropriate locations and, like everyone else, making mental notes of "ooh, this is different from the novel... but I kind of like it this way too." SO GLAD they kept Molly vs. Bellatrix verbatim to the book because that was honestly one of my favorite moments from the novel. Am amused to note that three weeks after its release the theater was still packed. People were lining up for sold out showings of Rise of the Planet of the Apes and, surprisingly to me at least, The Smurfs.

Waiting for the oven to ping at me so I can put the quiche in. Harvested a good lot of tomatoes, jalepenos, and the first habeneros today... debating between canning the tomatoes, or making salsa with them. Suspecting that salsa will win out due to less things to wash afterwards.

Inlaws have booked their flights and will be joining Wonderful Husband and I and my family for Christmas this year. Not going to stress! (Yet.) Still, maybe time to start talking with my mother about who's going to host Christmas this year....

Friday night: seeing Cirque du Soleil for the first time, performing Quidam. Waaaaah....

Saturday: general laundry and dishes stuff, along with finishing up more floof to Kirari's petticoat.

Sunday: RenFaire for about 4 hours with husband and inlaws. I love knowing that every single stitch I have on was made by myself. Need to do a new bodice for next year, though.

Today: Getting a call from hoshikage, asking if we can move WorldCon costume plans up to AX, and only later going online and finding out why. Still panicking. Will have no social life for the next yay many months.

'Laters, y'all.

Not updating much this week (or next) because I have in-laws visiting, which is neat. Tomorrow night we're going to see Cirque du Soleil. I've never seen Cirque before, so I'm rather looking forward to it.

Got approved for my panel for Fanime. Yay!
