Losing hope on having an Elizabethan dress done for next Saturday :( I work every day from two days ago until then, and all I have done is a bodice mock-up. I made another mock-up today of Margo's pattern, and UGH what a pain. Granted, the pattern was traced out three years ago, but even without my undergarments and bundled in three layers (it's -31C in the wind, which means the house is pretty cool too), I had to punch in the bust by 4" on each side, which totally changes the look. And now I read that a bumroll should sit lower on your backside? Bleh. Well, I will probably keep going anyway, since I REALLY REALLY WANT THIS DONE, but it's not looking too likely. I refuse to stress myself out over costumes right now.

Also, I have a newfound love of Regency gowns, and I cannot wait to get started on at least 2 of those :3

Also-also, I really hate that I can't seem to write anything outside of nano :( My brain used to overflow with tales, and now it's a wadi. Though I did have a small spark of inspiration while at work today, it probably didn't even top out at 400 words.

oh oh, I know what you are talking about about the not being able to write outside of nano. It drives me nuts. I still get stories and have ideas, but I have hell trying to actually write it down. :\ It's like there is a story there to be written, but I have no urge to write it. ANNOYING.

YES EXACTLY. I have two perfectly viable stories floating around my brain, but zero inclination to put them to paper, so to speak. It's really annoying :( There was a time in my life when you couldn't stop me from writing. I want it back.
