i think I need a scribe icon..hmmm..

Well, yesterday was a good day...stressful in the "must get things done" way but good none the less. I was on fire with productivity and praise so good. I'm glad that things are not so fast today that I can catch back up on everything else that has been on the wayside while I've been working on that report draft. But only a half day today which is nice...cause I have things to do and movies to see!

Got home and I relaxed on the couch with mel and the cats. Snuggles were needed and I was happy to sit and pet the kitties. Mel and I sat reading Paraabnormal which is a hoot and a half and then I knuckled, down after getting some chicken on to steam, to do more calligraphy. My commentary that I needed practice on gothic littera bastarde was true....so I lined out a scroll and had the book open and wrote the entire thing in that script and then I did another one. I got the last two scrolls (which aren't even painted) lined and had text pencilled in.

Course I think I need to put some tips and tricks in here...( skip for the non-scribe )

I hope to do the calligraphy on the last 3 scrolls in my case and be done with that so I can work on A&S. I have this issue that I can't put stuff down until its done before I start something else. If everything has the same deadline I can do it but with things do at different times I work the first due date stuff first. Anybody else do that? Then after I clean up the scrolls for pencil marks and paint on the kingdom arms they will be ready to turn in. Course I might just hand over the last two unpainted to Tati and then they can get turned in at the same time as the others...hmmmmm. We shall see. Then I won't be distracted and want to paint on them versus my A&S stuff.

Anyhoo...time to buckle down and get some paperwork cranked out. All good.

Who shall win the battle????

So, right now its a battle between my Dept Manager and my Section manager of what I'm doing next week...keep working on the FRB I've been on or go to FLORIDA IN AUGUST to work on another one...all next week. hmmmm. Annoying especially when I'm about to leave for the weekend and will have to be glued to my pager for the day to hear the details. Sighs.

Edit 1pm: looks like section head wins with conditions. Damn

Well, not how I planned but a nice afternoon...

I headed off from work to get tickets for the show and come home...I ended up doing a bit of shopping and then got my hair trimmed up. Corynne had commented she like Ulta and we have one at the mall and yeah, I liked them. They didn't try to push me to chop 4 inches off my hair to "make it healthy" and Carol was awesome. I also got the flyer for the next few burlesque shows from one of the troupes here and I think that will be fun, one of the stylist is in the show...the stylist doing my hair asked how I knew she did burlesque...well, she was rockabilly'd out and didn't move like a belly dancer it kinda just fit. Yanno.

I went to VS for some things and they have some nice cute stuff right now, picked up mel a prezzie at EB and just had a nice shopping time. Oh, and I found a purse I really like at Fossil...not sure if I want to spend that much...but it was awesome. hmmmm. Will have to think.

Just gonna relax until the hubby gets home and work on callig.
