Ohguh. Only a small bit of Japanese today on account of my somewhat inability to English, let alone any other -ish. Or tell time. I thought today was Tuesday for about an hour. I froze up with Spanish, which, now I need to review the specifics of a couple of things just so that I have the grammatical rules and terms straight in my head in such a way that I can explain them and not just be all "this sounds like this? I think?" And... between that, being called awesome by Eddie McClintock (Pete Lattimer on Warehouse 13), getting not only my current leotards in but also my original leotards shipped, getting my patch, getting to demonstrate spinning and successfully be a tourist attraction for half an hour, then... various and sundry other snafus? My brain is more scattered than than ashes on the wind.

Things that went right today.

* Did I mention I got tweeted and called awesome by Eddie McClintock? because I did.

* Two of my leotards came! Two others, including the white one I mean to dye, will come later in the week!

* My larger patch came, after I was a silly person and didn't look at the size of the Thundercats patch I ordered.

* I not only successfully salvaged a spinning demonstration wherein I was actually unable to make the damn yarn catch, I managed to thoroughly entrance and delight a bunch of... four to eight year olds? For about half a damn hour. Go Go Kitty Tourist Attraction.

* I successfully dragged enough of the Spanish from the background of my brain to the foreground to review and correct the Spanish exercise, with some help from the web, and to realize what was tripping me up as far as matching words to grammar forms. Explaining grammar when you're near to a native speaker of a language you haven't spoken in near to 20 years is HARD.

* I did manage to get my Japanese done.

* I made a plan for maybe making Whites and maybe not, that I can live with, that satisfies both my sudden urge to do that costume and the reality that Dragon*Con is fast approaching.

* I did not raid the candy basket, but instead went and supplied myself with good chocolate from across the street, so I should be set for the next month or so.

Tonight, German while having dinner, and then writing and either a little more sewing or more dicking around with makeup. I think I need to cave and find a light, cream base for lighter beige/Latina skin to go under my Cheetara makeup. Anyone have any suggestions?
