Welcome to Saturday

I have done nothing more productive yet than sit around in my pajamas drinking cocoa. I plan to remedy this in a little while. Don't ask me how, though, as I haven't quite figured that out yet.

Oooooh. I should probably go look for a job. And fill out my FAFSA applications. Yes, precious.

[ETA: Took shower. Go me. Yay for being semi-productive!]

Right. I need a life

So I decided I'd take a break from studying/cleaning to tell you all that.

Actually, I had no plans on telling you anything of the sort, but I'm chillin' until five or so and decided I'd peruse eBay and Ichiroya for things that I can't afford.

I was kind of checking around for jewelry boxes, since I desperately need a new one. I couldn't find any that made me happy, though, and decided that I'd have to just design and build my own. Obviously I'm the only person on the planet who has plans to have Pernese furniture and accessories, otherwise I think I would've found something that I liked. Something with dragons on it, but not OMFGSpencer's! dragons.

I've got this weird bug about consumer products. General types of things, like black shirts, are okay to buy in bulk. I don't mind running into other people with black shirts. But if I'm going to spend a lot of money on something, it's got to be unique or custom made. This means that I've been designing my own furniture, wall hangings, clothes, and jewelry for forever- my bank account just happens to not support my habit very well. But it's there.

This causes lots of problems when I buy hair accessories (which I'm also looking at.) I go into Claire's, and it's like, "Okay. I am going to buy some hairsticks, dammit, because everything I own is falling to pieces and I really, really need new ones." I go through the racks, and don't buy anything, because a) what if someone else has the same ones? and b) wow, these are just plastic pieces of shit and not worth spending money on.

Well, I found this hairstick on eBay. I really like its fluid look. God knows I'm a sucker for anything even remotely resembling art nouveau. Plus it's not plastic. Yay for not plastic.

...Bah. I don't know why I'm even looking at this stuff, or why I'm writing about it. (Rambling, more like.) The point is, when I finally get to start on my kimono and accessories for the ochaya project, I am going to be a total holy terror about it. I guess this entry is a preemptive apology for making everyone hate my [obsessive] guts on my manic quest for perfection and the perfect kimonos.

Blathering about my psychology

Mother's Day is tomorrow, but sadly for Mater, the Lilac Ninja won't bring her lots of flower tonight. The lilacs aren't out yet, which means that I can't steal them from other people's yards. Alas.

However, I bought her a potted azalea at Sam's Club earlier, and we've got lots of Mother's Day cards (left over from last year, when we forgot to use them.)

I've spent the last two hours doing obscure research. I didn't even realize that it got dark out.
