Ok, I'll bite...

and do that meme that I've seen all over the place lately...

A - Age: 34, 35 at the end of April
B - Bed size: Queen, though I'd love a king someday as Ian and I aren't small people, and he STILL hasn't learned how to share a bed with someone else. A king wouldn't fit into our current bedroom though.
C - Chore you hate: taking the garbage down, scrubbing the tub
D - Don't eat: Fish and seafood. Raw onions and tomatos (cooked is fine).
E - Essential start-your-day item: A shower. If I don't, I feel gross and can't function properly
F - Favorite board game: Settlers of Catan and Iron Dragon
G - Gold or Silver: Silver
H - Height: 5'4"
I - Instruments you play: Piano, trumpet, french horn, clarinet, flute, recorder, and now I'm learning the harp.
J - Job title: Legal Assistant
K - Kid(s): Just four-legged ones. Hermione, Onyx, Violet (felines) and Cody (canine)
L - Love or lust: there are many people and things I love, not all in a romantic way. Currently the only thing I'm lusting after is my sweetie. :)
M - Mom's name: Beverly
N - Nicknames: None, unless you count Asny, my SCA name.
O - Overnight hospital stay other than birth: Just once, when I had my tonsils out at age 19.
P - Pants or pantyhose: I don't do pantyhose, ever. I wear pants most of the time, but I much prefer skirts, I'm just lacking skirt-appropriate shoes right now. That will change once the weather is nice enough for me to wear sandals again.
Q - Favorite Movie Quote: Can't think of any right now.
R - Right or left handed: Right
S - Siblings: I have two biological siblings, both younger than me.
T - Time you wake up: The alarm goes off at 6, but I usually smack the snooze bar a couple times and then get up sometime between 6:20 and 6:40.
U - Underwear: Yes, I'm wearing some. They're turquoise.
V - Vegetable favorite: Beets
W - Ways you run late: Generally the only thing that ever makes me late is the skytrain having problems, or Ian.
X - X-rays you've had: Teeth many times, both knees, both ankles, and I think I've had my entire torso x-rayed once.
Y - Yummy food you make: Everything I make is yummy, and I cook from scratch a LOT. If I have to pick, I'd say my homemade cabbage rolls.
Z - Zoo favorite: giraffes and otters

updates and to-dos

I had an interview yesterday, and I have another one on Sunday. Yay! My current temp assignment ends on Monday (boo!) but I have another one lined up for 3 days next week, and once that's done I should have exactly enough hours to get unemployment, so if all else fails, the bills will get paid that way. Whew!

I actually got some stuff accomplished last night AND the night before. Go me! Laundry's done, though I'll have to do another load tonight so I have my interview clothes ready for Sunday. Kitchen is almost done, though I still need to clean the fridge. The living room is tidied up too. I'm going to try and get a bunch more tidying done tonight, so that the floors will all be clear for Ian to vacuum the entire house while I'm at my event tomorrow.

I'm in desperate need of a to-do list for tonight, but I'll put it ( behind a cut for those of you who don't want to read it )

I am SOOOO looking forward to the event. I'm on retinue for Kheron & Kenna's reign, and this is their investiture, so it should be fun!

peectures!

Apparently I'm feeling spammy today. :)

So, a couple weeks ago, eve_the_just admonished me for talking about projects without posting pictures. This is me getting off my arse and remedying that.




Beads in my barony's colours.



Knit purses based loosely on the Gunnister purse find.


Both of these sets were donated to be baronial largesse.

And now that the oven is beeping at me, I will go take my dinner out of the oven to cool, and set the torch back up so I can finish up fiodior's beads. Pics later!
