sorry everyone

...  if there is anyone?

i'm working full-time now with a 1 to 2 hour commute on the bus.  yes, our public transit system is a joke.

so, basically, that's what i'm doing right now.

i'll update when i can/when i actually have things i'm working on.

until then...

and so it has been a month

since my last post...  don't say i didn't warn you.

lots of bullshit has been going on with my job, including, but not limited to, the bistro closing for two weeks without notice, and severe cuts to my hours, so job-hunting is taking up a bunch of my time.

i've also been working on music a bunch...  with nothing to show for it...  but anyway.  my mom got me this:

for chrismukkah, and my dad got me these:

so of course planning new things to make has been driving me insane.  having no money (STILL, WTF) does not help much, but i have a gift certificate to jimmybeanswool, so maybe if i stop drooling over sweaters i'd like to knit and pick some smaller projects, i could at least have something to work on.  trying to pick the first sewing pattern to break in my new machine seems impossible as well, so far it's between four or five patterns...

a vintage vogue dress,

this simplicity x project runway dress,

a simplicity skirt pattern i've had for probably 5 years,

and a few patterns from twinkle sews, which would be too annoying to try to find images of and i am too lazy for scanning right now.  but i can't afford fabric right now anyway, so i mean, i have time to think about it.  but OMG skynet-free hello kitty sewing machine guise. 
♡o｡.(✿ฺ｡ ✿ฺ)

but the access to seemingly endless knitting patterns on the internet is making it hard to decide what to make first (on my new turbo clicks aaahhhh ♡＾▽＾♡) but the spending limit of the gift certificate will help with that.  hopefully.

also i don't have a digital camera anymore (did i already mention that?  probably...) so you may have to suffer through phone camera pix soon (i actually think my phone camera might be better than my parents' old digital camera, megapixels-wise).  but also i might be moving soon-ish, so yeah.

until next time...
