getting it all down on paper

Posted by aprile on 2010.04.01:

Hello! I've been at my computer constantly lately, but a lot of my websites are banned—because I am a super procrastinator (this counts as procrastinating, probably) I had to block bad time wasters, so I have all the time I need to work on my thesis! Which is due in a week and a half (Ahhh!). I'm having a hard time getting all of my thoughts out of my head and onto paper (or the screen!)



Currently, our living room is out of commission and it is now my woodshop. Stuff everywhere, little workshops for painting and gluing and nailing. I will hopefully have my displays done (at least 3 out of 4) in the next day or two. They are coming along quite nicely and I keep finding more props and things to outfit them with!

This is my attempt to take a photo of my new leather jacket, which is so atypical for a leather jacket (in style). No zippers or accents, but there is a but of pleating at the back, soo nice! And the colour is a grayish brownish, with a fake sweater collar and sleeves. I am in love.

It's kind of too warm right now for leather jackets, though I am NOT disappointed! We're going to have a picnic lunch tomorrow!

Eeek! Good luck with your thesis! Enjoy this amazing weather -- it was nice to see you (briefly) last night!
