Work is so crazy. SO CRAZY. A bunch of people in the same position I hold have recently quit/will soon quit, plus we've been short a manager for months, and oy. Crazy hours.

The only time I've had for myself lately I've spent making bold forays into the realm of ridiculousness:


Hogmarts nails! Each nail has the background of the house crest on it. And then a very messy version of the Hogwarts crest on my thumb.




Then I did Hufflepuff nails for my own house. I'm quite proud of how the badger looks like a badger, and not a skunk. I used the badgerbadgerbadgerbadgerbadgerMUSHROOM badger as a guide. XD

Also, the new movie has kinda made me a Harry/Ron/Hermione shipper. Anybody got any OT3 recs?

Aww, shit. T_T

ETA: I kind of can't get over this. Hogfather is on in half an hour. What the bleeding fuck, universe?

Ok, we're back at home. Everyone is fine and so is the house. The fire that was near my house has changed direction, it's moving East and back on itself. This map is very cool if you want to see exactly what's been going on in San Diego. The Harris Fire in the South was the one my family and I were worried about. We lived in the car on the beach for a couple days. See, we'd planned to just get out of town or possibly the state for the duration, but my brother in law is a dork and wouldn't come with us. He thought he was still going to work today. My sister wouldn't leave without him and my mother wouldn't leave without my sister, so we just drove out to the coast and slept in the cars and whatnot. (See moodtheme. I'm ridiculously excited to sleep in my bed tonight. I mean seriously, it's stupid how much I'm looking forward to that.)

( Two things: )

Anyway, we're all good, our house is all good, and it looks like it's going to stay that way. Also, I spent most of the time we were gone knitting and reading Terry Pratchett, and you know who Jared Padalecki should totally be cast as? Carrot Ironfoundersson. (The wikipedia article doesn't do him justice. Trust me, it would be awesome.)

Have I mentioned that two of my classes were canceled, conveniently after the add/drop date? This leaves me with some time on my hands, which I am choosing to fill with lots of pointless but interesting research. Also, when xtinethepirate made me that glorious shirt, I got inspired, and ( made some stuff: )

And I'm making stuff for the raffle @ Wincon!! I'm excited, I hope ppl like my stuff. So yeah, aside from vibrating with fangirlish anticipation, that's what I've been up to.

What should I dress up like for Halloween?

FINISHED!
