Shirts and bags and books
Apr. 28th, 2007 03:51 pmAaaargh, only half an hour left to update journal, wrrryyyy did I put off that "Make a list of SRS poll links for November plz :Db" thing? DD: Ahem.
Mailed out a couple of shirts today, both of which were more than a teensy bit late -_-a Hopefully I'll get back on track with that. (My excuse for the first is that the transfers had decided to hate me; for the second it's that I kinda don't check my Gmail account all that often :D;;)
On the topic of shirts, I finally got around to finishing the Orange + 75 = Canada design last nightat nearly three in the morning while I was waiting for the shirts to dry, hooray! My motivation was actually a white canvas bag I picked up at Hobby Lobby for about $2.50 (plus tax). I figure, if I get it ironed on and decide it looks good, it's another thing I can offer ♥ ...Also, aprons and bandanas, 'cuz Hobby Lobby has those, too. The bag is 13.5"x13.5"x4", so I'm hoping it'll be both stylish and useful once I get the transfer on it. Sadly, I seem to be running low on yellow ink at the moment, which has slowed down the "applying the transfer to the @#$@#$ bag already" initiative. I'll probably be able to get away with making off with the upstairs ink cartridge, though, 'specially since they're the same type of printer. The straps are a bit shorter than I'd like, but they'll do, and then I'll have a nifty new bag, yay!
More importantly, I just finished reading this book last night, and couldn't be more pleased with the entire thing. It's just absolutely beautiful and delicious and warm and alsdjfsldjfadl. Incoherency-inducing. It took me a little while to get past the first few chapters and into the story, but once I did, I didn't regret it a bit. I love the theological theorizing on how gods came/come to exist, and now reccommend it to anyone interested in that, and also in magic cowboys. Be warned (or enticed), there is graphic man-on-man action.
Long story short, I NEED THE OFFICIAL PUBLISHED VERSION, so I can flip to my favorite parts whenever I feel like it, and otherwise re-read it until the pages fall out. Sadly, it costs money DD: But someday, when I have cash, I will buy it!
...On a slightly more random note, I'm roughly two pages into a Meet the Robinsons fic for Lyzz, which I have decided to call (after much debate) A Day in the Life of Lewis Robinson. *is a dweeb*
