beansideHappy Friday! I made the mistake (?) of leaving my sister's window open yesterday while I worked, and today my allergies are making me pay. I'm snotty and my eyes itch. Definitely going to be grabbing a claritin before I start work.
We think they finished our work yesterday, but no one officially told us they're done, so I'm going to be locked in the bedroom for the first half of the day while we wait to see. If no one shows up by noon, I'm coming out. I may finish the day in the bedroom, but the door will be open. The closet looks nice. There's a pair of folding doors, and the closet is very nice. There's some floor space that we're using to store the toilet paper and paper towels, and two shelves. One shelf is about chest height, perfect for the laundry products. The second is about 7 feet off the ground. It has a little rack affixed to the bottom for hanging up your clothes, but the shelf itself requires a step ladder to put anything on it.
I don't really care, just happy as shit that it's done. It'll be nice to be able to do smaller, more frequent loads.
So, last week,poisontaster went to an SPN Con. And I loved hearing about it, but I also said, in my outside voice, "I just don't think I'm a con person."
I was kind of flipping through facebook last night and saw a thing for Steel City Comic Con in Pittsburgh. And I went because I'm always interested to see what kind of guests the east coast cons can get. And there, I found my Waterloo. There was a photo op with Ron Perlman and Linda Hamilton and one with Linda Hamilton and Michael Biehn. And I my inner Beauty and the Beast and Terminator fangirl went o.O. With goading and encouragement from my lovely spouse and sister, I bought the tickets. So, Steel City Comic Con in December.
My dresses have both come in. The first to arrive was the black. It's very pretty and has a motherfucking crinoline, but it does need some alterations. It's a wee bit big, and if we could shorten the straps and the hem, it would be perfect.
The second dress is what they call "ink blue" which is kind of really a green leaning teal. It's by Project Runway winner Christian Siriano, and I'm in love with it. It also needs altering, as the sleeves will not stay up, and the back shows my bra as is. It also needs to be hemmed for length so I can walk in it, but I love it. I might have a little bit of alterations, just to bring it in a little more, but it's gorgeous.
Siriano was my favorite Project Runway contestant, and later was a mentor, and I'm beyond excited to have one of his dresses.
Tonight, I'm going to get my covid and flu shots, since Costco has finally gotten in Novavax.
Tomorrow, it's off to get Jess fitted, then a game, then the Russian Festival. We missed it last year, so I'm very excited to get to go again.
And on that note, I'm off to consider the wonderful world of pants. Everyone have an stellar Friday!
