I should be working...

[unforth]

I really need to start, you know, doing my job, but why do that when I can procrastinate just a little bit longer?

Went over to dyrecorn and miraeko's last night. Watched a very strange movie, Secretary, which I rather enjoyed all things considered. I've been trying to figure out how to classify it, but have been unable to think of any standard category it fits in...I think my brain has added it to my "romance" category, but anyone who has seen it might think I'm a weirdo for that. :)

Have spent the morning working and procastinating in equal parts. I'm excited about my casting for the Apocolypse game, but I needs to do me some research so I looked up some library call numbers for books I'll grab tonight, and I started trying to hunt down a pattern for an amazing formal Kimono. (none of the commonly available patterns are nice enough in my opinion) ...this is proving more difficult than expected, though. Everyone wants to sell you Yukata's, while I want a "furisode" kimono, the most formal that can be worn by an unmarried woman, often worn to weddings. These are made with nicer fabric, and are cut differently too. :) I have to find the pattern fast, though, so here's hoping. :) (I want one that looks rather like this picture)

Have a nice day, everyone!

I thought you were weird anyway. Though this doesn't change that.

I have a pattern, but I doubt it's what your looking for. However, I have some nice brocade material I bought to make a kimono a few years ago, and I don't think I'm ever going to use it, so if you'd like it...

I was going to come over last night, btw, but just when I was going to call you, miraeko told me on AIM that you'd just left for their house. So I made brownies on my own instead.

I wore a furisode once, it almost killed me. ^^

That movie made me feel dirty, but alot more sane.

Um, also, you can't put on formal Kimono by yourself. I think I will bring my kimono (plural) over tonight, so you can experiment. You are also welcome to borrow, if you want, though I do not have a furisode- they are hideously expensive.
