kittydesadeGot through the first page of the third chapter, I forget what page that is, and had to force myself to stop looking at necklaces and jewelry on Etsy because I found three or four pieces I'd really like to get. Including, okay, one ring that I will get to replace the ring I lost and so my hands balance out, but the rest of it can bloody well wait for a while, I have spent more than enough getting ready to be a proper lady in Portland. Bad Jag. Just because you got a windfall doesn't mean you need to spend it omg all right now, plus there's the fireplace to repair and the media center to get.
I have really bad discipline when I get into a AUGH SHINY mood. And apparently that's now. Still. And the ring has to wait till I get home and figure out how tight or loose my dice rings are on me anyway, since I know those were a size 7 but the ring place does quarter sizes. Calm down, self. Really. It'll be okay.
(Bat wing boot spats! Augh!)
... No, too late, distracted by butterfly wings (from ethically sourced butterflies! I love that phrase now) and the beautiful jewelry they make. From now till Portland, I think, Inara is my spirit animal.
On the plus side, this is probably a good mood to write about faerie people. Away I go! Now if I can just remember which parent was the Sluagh and which was theDaoine Leanan Sidhe. Leanan! Father, Leanan Sidhe, mother, Sluagh. Yes.
Oh! Wednesday Reads
Which is sort of Wednesday Media Consumed. The past couple weeks the boy and I have been rewatching Fringe and we're finally into the part I haven't seen before! Which turns out to be only season five. So, okay then. Also it caused John Noble to follow me on twitter, which was not only creepy, is he... yep, still following me. So creepy. I hope I meet him at DragonCon this year.
I've also been reading The Pillow Book of Sei Shonagon again. It always amazes me how much some of her entries, the things like "Things Which Are Hateful" or "Things Which Are Elegant" or "Things That Make One's Heart Beat Faster" are still relevant and vivid, around a thousand years later in a different country and culture. It's good re-reading, though. I'm enjoying it.
I think this week for future reading I might pick up the second Walker Papers book. And a re-read of Women Who Run With The Wolves. Yesh. This seems good.
