dragonlady7I am boring lately.
New job: fun. Have two days off now, was sent home with a cute little camera to familiarize myself with so I can sell it. It is something rad, I don't even know what. I guess I need to start paying attention to these things. We sell a lot of Nikons, and i don't know, they're all chains of numbers and letters. The Nikon Coolpix S630! The Nikon L60! The Fujifilm Finepix Z33WP! The SomethingOrOther Letter-Numbers!
Why doesn't anyone name their cameras anything memorable?
Like, I dunno, the Nikon Fucked Your Mom?
Try the Fuji Eats Babies!
How about the Canon Motherfucker?
I'd remember those.
Ugh.
So I have a Fuji Something Tiny, and it's waterproof. So it claims. I am wondering if part of the learning process should involve dunking it in water or something. What do you think? Should I take the thing in the shower just so I can tell customers that it totally really is waterproof? Or is that a terrible idea? I was considering taking photos with it while playing in the sprinkler, or something. But it's not supposed to be that warm...
In other news, I seam-ripped out the front skirt gores on the skirt and lining of the blue silk dress. I am nearly done sewing down the facings at the armholes. The neckline is done already. So I need to redo the front skirt seam.
I have decided to take up tablet weaving. I have purchased non-stretchy crochet wool in three colors. I have made tablets out of old Christmas cards. (I knew I saved them for *something*.) I just have to get up the gumption to cut 40 pieces of 8-foot-long cord, and go to town on it. And oh yeah I need a shuttle made of something. I'll think of something.
I planted the tomatoes I ordered from Burpee this evening. I got four plants. Two wilted and are really unhappy-looking by now. One broke off while I was planting it. I know how to plant motherfucking tomatoes; they are not supposed to break. I am not particularly happy. Of the four plants, I am estimating that only one of them will thrive. But we'll see.
I have to plant the peppers but they will wait until tomorrow afternoon.
I am so boring. When did I get so boring? And inarticulate? Someday I will be interesting again. I promise.
