I did, indeed, get sick, but not with what my roommates had. I THINK I had an ear infection, because my ear was painful, especially when I swallowed, and it was all down the right side of my neck and mouth. By Saturday, when I was realizing that I did not have whatever cough they did, I thought if it hadn't cleared up by Monday, I would go to the doctor. Thankfully, it DID clear up, and I do not have any lingering other-symptoms, like the cough that still plagues my roommates.

Went to work sick on Thursday, but went home early, crawled into bed, and stayed there until Sunday afternoon.

Vacaciones! I sewed up the sleeve mock-up, did a quick fit test with the completed-to-there dress, deemed it Acceptable and carried on. Sleeves were stitched and basted into the armscyes before I left for work. Tuesday morning I fitted them on the dressform, got into stays to test how they looked on me, and with one minor adjustment deemed them Acceptable and carried on. After a costco visit they got fully stitched and straps placed and stitched, and then removed all of the basting.

That means my Angelica gown is DONE, minus any of the extra bits that really make the look. My inspo gown has a small ruched trim on the neckline, which I think I will copy. Pictures still forthcoming because it was late, and then...

Downhil after that. I woke up on Tuesday at 8:30am and aside from a brief nap yesterday at 9, I have been awake util 6am this morning. Yes friends, if you're keeping track, I was awake for 45.5 hours and I do not recommend it. I don't think I've ever been awake that long before. Awful! Zero stars! Never go here again! I couldn't *do* anything because I was too tired, mentally, and I spent the two nights-into-early-mornings reading an absolutely banger of a Bridgerton fanfic that was 188k words. I am TIRED still, I only slept for about 5 hours total, but it's more normal and less... whatever that was.

I spent some time on Tuesday with my fountain pen and wrote out a big list of projects I want to consider. I'll write those in a different post.

Insomnia update, because I have nothing better to do.

Watched Bleach. It's on at 3am now. It was the first ep. Entertaining enough, I suppose. I can't prove that YTV has played anything except the first 27 or so eps.

Google'd the ending song from Portal, and it will soon be is living a happy existance in my iTunes. Wootwoot.

But, youtube is being very laggy. Weird.

Need to make some phone calls soon... Shaw never came to fix my TV box, and the new Telus modem is shittastic.

Back to wanting a mini-girl with boobs. I'd still like to have Mia in a body (after a fashion), and minis just... work. Except I couldn't keep her around my current mini. And I have no idea who Yuu would be since I still don't have a clear mental image. Bah, that requires too much thought this early in the morning.

OK self, get tired and go sleep now. You have to be out of the house in less time than it takes you to get a good sleep *pokes self*

Fucking insomnia.

Worst. Night. Of insomnia. EVER.
