Ferdinand has developed a habit of lurking in dark hallways and then skittering suddenly and loudly on the hardwood floors when you unknowingly get within striking distance. You scare him (SKITTER!) and then he scares you (GAH!) and then you scare him more (SKITTERSKITTERZOOOM!). It really doesn't help that he's all black from the immediately-above view, so you don't see him til it's Almost Too Late. Probably doesn't help his weenie tendencies, but we can't SEE you, dude. Stop lurking in dark hallways!
He was also ABSOLUTELY OUTRAGED at the nabbing for a manicure the other day, and wouldn't even come up for treats for the rest of the evening. Bitch, it's your claws that were outrageous, you kept getting stuck in the couch.
Lili continues to nap on top of the couch while I'm on the computer, and it continues to be adorable. She's much better behaved while getting her manicures.
Sewing:
Poked a bit more at the charcoal grey flannel jumper but am at the zipper-setting point, which I did start, but which needs to be done in daylight, due to the black thread on dark grey and the plush-i-ness of the flannel! Too awful to do in artificial light, can't see a damn thing. That will have to wait til next weekend, then!
Plotting:
With the whole setting-a-date thing, I need to figure out what to wear! The park is still being considered, but the other party involved in this wedding would really prefer we have a party somewhere drinkies are a possibility, which they aren't in the park. So we're in the midst of pricing out a rental at the town community center - slightly less cheapie, but we have a budget from his dad and an offer from my mom, so while I still have no intention of spending A Lot, we have a bit of wiggle room.
But the important Thing out of all that is that, I would wear something different at the park than at an evening party with drinkies! Suit for park or daytime shindig, cocktail dress for evening party. I have Ideas (of course I do), but I won't get too into them here til we decide officially on the event space.
(Also I 100% reserve the right to toss any and all sewing plans for a wedding party outfit and buy myself a vintage inspired dress instead at any time LOL.)
