Sometimes. Today I did, yay for me. Had a stupid meeting at work this morning, but was off the rest of the day, so I decided, dammit, I really need to sew something! ...After I go see Black Swan. By myself, because I have boring friends, and I was afraid it would be out of theaters if I waited much longer. So I finally saw it, and wow. Fantastic. I left the theater feeling slightly bonkers myself.

And those costumes. *gets all googly-eyed* [livejournal.com profile] cleopatramwi is already doing a Black Swan costume, which I have no doubt is going to be fabulous, and I'd feel a bit of a copycat for being all, "Eeee, I wanna Black Swan costume tooooooo!" Hmm. Will mull this over in my ickle brains for a while and see what happens. (Lord, and there I go, doing a Google images search on the costumes, "just in case.")  I've already got the shoes! Yes, I used to do ballet when I was in high school, and every once in a while, I put the shoes on again and do a few steps. People are never surprised when I tell them I was in ballet..."You look like a dancer." So...I'm thin and have small boobs. Thank you. And I was never particularly good at ballet!

Also, now I want to go see a performance of Swan Lake. The music's been playing in my head allllll day. Rather conveniently, I might be able to, as the Pennsylvania Ballet is doing Swan Lake in March. Coincidence that they're doing that ballet when fourteen of their dancers were in Black Swan? I THINK NOT.

Ballet goofiness aside, I actually did come home and sew things.

Things. Things get long. )

I did manage to finish fitting the bodice for my dress today before work, but had errands to run, so that's all I did. And now I'm tired and don't feel like cutting out the pieces. Lameness!

Tomorrow I work 10-3, and for once I'm glad I go in for an early shift, as I'll be getting out just when the snow's predicted to start. Which is better than driving in when the snow's starting, and hoping Corporate decides to close early enough to not have us die on the roads while driving home. I'm scheduled for Wednesday as well, but am hoping for a snow day (like I'm an elementary school kid or something) so I can have a whole day of sewing!
