smeghead, me!
Jul. 4th, 2004 08:54 pmWas seized with a "flat place crisis" (or rather, a dirty floor crisis) and spent much of the day cleaning. In my frenzied excavation of piles of paper I found a long-lost ad for a military uniforms calendar by Sally Queen & Associates, the woman for whom I've been freelancing all these many years. So, of course, I set upon my collection of her publications like a rabid dog, looking for the copy I surely received at some point to scan for the site.
And of course, guess which calendar I DON'T have!! Yep, the very same :P At least the list of museums is still on the site, I have some idea where to ask, at the very least!
I've been doing the site for at least 5 years; one would think I'd have the good grace to look through her materials first when I was starting my hussar research, but of course, NOOOO, the last place I start to check is my own bookshelf :P Needless to say, I feel rather stupid just now...
In good news, at least, I found the donut beads. They were in a plastic, not paper, bag, which is of course why I missed them, even though they were in plain sight :P
Also mopped and vacuumed - I figured, I'm on a roll, why not? I still managed to find time to read in all 3 in-progress books and watch "Fifth Element" for the nth time; Jean-Paul Gaultier had fun with that movie :)
Back to the basement cleanup - I may find that calendar yet!
