kittydesade: (misha totoro!)
Gaeilge )

Not only did I get Person of Interest done last night, I got a draft of the next Gods and Monsters done. Sometimes I amaze even myself. Then I usually sleep like a rock because exhausted. So, according to today's calendar, I'm spending the better part of this morning editing (read: adding in that one scene I only noted down because I wasn't sure it should go in there) and the better part of the afternoon editing Blood in the Gutters. Awesome.

Slowly, very slowly knocking down shit on my to-do list such that it's manageable again. Which is kind of a miracle, honestly. Or at least I feel like it's manageable again, which is mostly the important thing, as long as I'm keeping track of everything. Mending is happening, costume bits are being pulled together. I need to either finish or rebuild my Tetsuo arm because, hilariously, over the weekend the boy started pulling down some extraneous wiring and cable from the exterior of the house. At which point I blinked, looked at pictures of Tetsuo, and decided that would make the awesomest Tetsuo arm ever. So instead of painted veiny mutant thing which, honestly, did kind of look fairly horrible, I'm going to have covered in cables mutant sleeve thing. Seriously, this is going to be awesome. Hilarious and awesome. I just need a new pair of pantyhose to cut up and fuck up for the base. But, yeah, that's happening, I dug through the garage some more and found whole other chunks of costume boxes, so that can get sorted over the weekend. I might end up going through my project boxes and seeing which ones need to be scrapped (anything that involves my body and a relatively close fit, since I seem to have changed shape a bit) and which ones can still be finished. (Cloaks and the like) and then schedule out time to finish those. Oi, so many craft projects. Also with the random urge the other day to make a bracelet.

Also also with the random urge the other day to watch Poltergeist, the Legacy. Seriously, is that a TV show anyone remembers? I used to love that show. I don't remember what it was like anymore, not at all, but I used to love that show.

I need to update my calendar, though. I need to sort through and figure out what all I need to do over the next couple weeks, then sort through the calendar and slap it all up there. Oi, so many things to keep track of. Now that I'm not focused on the one next immediately due I think it's all starting to pile on. Which just means I need to be more careful about one thing at a time, slow steps, etc. One thing at a time. I swear I can do this. Or at least, somehow manage to juggle everything so that nothing gets too fucked up. Really. She said, promptly getting distracted on wondering how the fuck to french seam both ends of a pair of panty hose. Such is my life. Also, why do I not have an Akira icon.

Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today!

Okay. So, guess who was an idiot and forgot her Russian dictionary at home? That would be me. Yes. Which means today's Russian exercise is going to be, gasp, shock, reading! If I can figure out how to find the damn Russian language books on Gutenberg. Or if I can remember where the Russian original of Night Watch is online. ... This could prove problematic.

All right, keep searching. I somehow managed to finish the fucking draft, though. So, that can get edited this afternoon/tonight, and most likely tonight. I can totally edit and hem pants at the same time what are you talking about. Which leaves me with, as far as writing things goes, more Gods and Monsters drafting, more edits, and blogging for the forseeable future. You know, I'm strangely okay with this. Annoyingly, I do still/now need to rework my entire first chunk of outline for Gods and Monsters thanks to the way things went on this recent section. C'est la vie.

Ugh, so much crap to do. Among other things I need to break it all down into tasks by category. Costuming, I need to sort out and organize my costumes for Dragon*Con and make sure they're clean, the ones I'm not building from scratch this time. Which is most of them but Huntress and Tetsuo. I should figure out what makeup I'm doing for Tetsuo, if I'm doing just a bit of smokey eyes and normal makeup or if I'm going to do freaky veiny pale blotchy face. Or, hell, maybe both depending on the course of the day. I need to schedule out my writing tasks. And my gardening tasks. And figure out what the hell is up with the tomato plants because they're not growing as much as they should be. Moar fertilizer, maybe? Something. It's annoying me and I have plant envy and I feel like a bad person ... actually, I do, a little. Or at least a bad homesteader. Which has nothing to do with plants and everything to do with I have a left of center set of expectations for me and my housekeeping. Anyway, yes. Plants. How do they fucking work.

All right, I think we've reached the point where I need to stop whining about how much shit I have to do and start doing it, so here I go doing it. I just might take the boy up on his idea of more tomato plants this weekend, though. And a big bag of moar dirt to put them in. At least the carrots are coming up.

Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today!

For my own edification and organization, nothing to see here, move right along. (I need a costumes icon, I seriously do.)
