Hakama repaired and packed. Costumes picked out and packed. Clothing... not quite packed 'coz I'm waiting for the bra I want to take to finish drying. Desk at work cleared to the point where I'm going to have nothing to do tomorrow. Cookies baking. In short, I am ready. Mwah?

Just watched Princess Princess episode seven. The only episode of the series I consider "good" to this point (as in living up to the potential of the premise) has been five. Seven utterly destroyed that. It rocked. It /finally/ pulled out the stops and started with the stomach punches. This, of course, means that next episode it's probably going back to mediocre suckiness, but ah, the moment.

Finished the top for my Fuu costume last night. With luck (knock on wood) the rest of the costume will go easier. There's a pair of pants with minimal trim, a lined dress with trim around the hem, and a belt with a bow in the back. And, if I wanted to get technical, a pair of Arabian-esque pointed toe shoes. But those will depend on other projects because I can substitute black ballet slippers if time requires. Because I have to put Shinku back together and make at least two kimono (Wonderful Husband will be helping with that, we went and bought our fabric last night) as well in the next month. So, speed cosplay, which is not my norm.

Finished rereading the Earthsea trilogy and am feeling the need to purchase the other books in the universe. Also finished reading through my new Threads magazine and am feeling like making some summer wear. But projects first!

And Princess Princess. ^_^
