Went to see "Monsters Inc." last night. Cute movie, amazing animation. Though it gets all cuddly in the end (and that's all right; it works with the plot), the first half hour involving "that most toxic of all things - a human child" and the general freakout of the monsters when faced with sticky, gurgly children just tickled me. No, I don't hate all kids but the small ones can be very irritating and irksome.
Got up entirely too late today and puttered around on various projects - earring repair and finally starting to convert these cheapie elastic bead bracelets into something metal linked, much more attractive and much more sturdy.
I keep thinking about this fabric I saw in the G Street upholstery section of gold satin with embroidered gold bees.... very Napoleonic/Merovingian (its symbolic of power and royalty, if you buy the theories in "Holy Blood, Holy Grail"), and I keep hoping its there when/if I'm ready to create some truly elegant, lush, royal-type garb.
I do all this stuff while watching the second part of "History of Britian" on TV and gritting my teeth wondering just what it is that makes the day feel "off". Just not quite right. Maybe its the dread that the weekend is almost over or irritation that once again I didn't get everything done that I intended to. Its this feeling that if I keep busy I can stave off this antsy feeling. Maybe I just needed to get out some today.
