Just remember what the doormouse said ...

One of the worst prolongers of my insomnia is sewing patterns.

I thought I finally was going to drift off without chemical help, and then I got an idea for a skirt pattern, started drawing in out in my head, seeing how it'd look with different fabrics, and could I put a red lining behind the black and grey ruffles?

Mmmruffles, ruffles are an obsessive compulsive's friend, so orderly and fun to make, clearly defined ruffle steps.
DrugZ possibly kicking in, the word ruffle seems to have no meaning anymore, I've thumbtyped it too many times.

I've said before that I don't think that I'm particulary creative or artistic, but to me, making patterns and sewing is just as necessary and as much food for the soul as reading. I may go hopelessly batshitnutzo if too many more months go by with no sewing, It's been possibly years as it is...

Somebody buy me 10 yards of unbleached muslin, STAT! IT'S LIFE OR DEATH, ISWEARIT. I can provide links.

I better put fon down and let sleepy pill do its job now, before this entry degrades into just random letters and symbols.

If we shadows have offended, think but this and all is mended,

Hello eris,
I was just killing my afternoon on LJ. Sniffing around from something tasty and intresting to stare at. What to my wondering eyes did appear...? But subtle ole'eris. (Lower case e?) Polyamorous? That can be dangerous, you may want to be cool with that.

1 decaf. hot tea bag, of your choice I prefer Afrian Autumn
1 once of whisky, Canadian Club works very nicely
1 teaspoon of honey
1 lemon twist
some hot water

After 3 or 4 of these you won't need any sleeping meds. Prescribed or other wise. I hope you are not to sad these days. i like your stuff. You got nice stuff! Life's a trip. We spend so much time anticipating what we want and so little enjoying what we have earned. We wait... wait to eat wait to shit, wait to feel, wait to come, wait to go. It is frustraiting. I wonder if i am lucid or just meandering at this moment. My cyber feet stumbled on your cyber home. You have lovely skin, has anyone ever told you that? Perhaps sarcasm is good for the complextion. It is a shame you are so cruel. We could have been friends

You type as if I should know you, do I?

No, however. i am a fan of pineapples (in both rum and non-rum forms).Just now is popped into my mind that muslin is the silly putty and duck tape of yesteryear. It can be used to fix, beautify and repair a multitude of sins. Your dil1gence on your LJ is comendable. I have outlasted relationships that were not as well tended as your Journal. Hope you had fun with the recipe. Some folks like to be gitting fancy and add peach schnapps or triple sec. It is a matter of taste and ofcorse personality.
It has been said that dreams can save lives. Perhaps true. Probably ruins them with equal (by equal i mean equivalent as opposed to the sugar sub. in the blue pouch) frequency. Shakespeare had dreams and so did William Blake. Just like Jim Jones and Jeffery Dahmer. Scary thought huh? Your parents had (or have) dreams for you just as mine have had dreams for me. My most convient definition of obtaining a dream is to want for very little. Trouble is some people have a strange idea concerning what they is pathetic and super-chill, what is exceptable and un-exceptable, what please's the eye and what turns the stomach.
