I didn’t go for pretty because the dough was different from the usual pastry I use because it has tons of Stilton in it and it ended up crumbly. Suspect filling could have set better too but sure it will taste good

I have just enough of a headache that lying down and taking a nap sounds really good but not enough of a headache that lying down and taking a nap is imperative.

Several pairs of glasses ordered because I have FSA to use up (and I really need a pair of 'computer' glasses for reading sheet music but I leave my pair of them at work because I need them there constantly.)

I get to play dress up at the Dicken's Christmas Faire tomorrow. I got new pants for my outfit (though I had to ask my mom for help to hem them as they only came in 36 length. I could have worn them around my neck almost)

After having poked around in almost every dark corner of my apartment looking for my blocking wires I have found them in almost plain sight in a dumb place. As was probably foretold in ancient prophecy. Ancient prophecy can go fuck itself sometimes ;-)

I would very much like to remember where I put my blocking wires when I last reorganized the living room because I have a scarf I need to finish for Christmas.

Because there’s not a lot to do I revisited a picture I did the line art for years ago and reminded myself just how bad I am at coloring things digitally.

Finishing the scarf is moderately problematic because I have two and a half days left I. Vacation and no project to keep me busy.
