remains of the day

Tried on the partlet and it is fitting EXACTLY as it should. Another ringing, nay, SCREAMING endorsement for making a muslin out of cheapie fabric before cutting the good stuff. I hope its a lesson I finally get through my thick skull.

Saw last nights new AbFab. Saffie's play was SO touched. And I wonder how many Americans caught the Adam Ant references.

It feels like it is a million degrees in here, probably due in part to the fact that I am wearing a sweater and polarfleece sweatpants (ooh sexy :P). I guess its still just not as cold as I *think* it is.

Also managed to shoo D. off and wrap some presents. D. also felt moved today to get some rope lighting for the bannisters. I kind of like it - its very bright light, which I need this time of year. Also, it seems to radiate some heat. Is my Grinch-like holiday spirit softening? Hell no - we still don't have a tree and I'm uncertain where to store/display the newly wrapped gifts.

Tomorrow a change at the office - we're going to be learning how to use some new equipment and software for most of the day. Could turn out to be lots of fun if we can come up with good excuses to use what we're learning (video production/editing) :)

What are you getting to play with?

I kept waiting for the response to "you never took me on holiday" to be "we took you to Morocco!" (One of the more amusing episodes, IMHO.)

I'm not sure exactly what we're going to be playing with yet - hence the training. Definitely beyond the scope of Adobe Premiere.

Re: trip to Morocco - they didn't exactly invite her, she tagged along. This was one of the better of the new series but its just not up to the par of the previous ones, IMHO. I do like the dual role of Bubble/Edina's new partner though.
