Starting on holiday projects already; hey, it's October, so it's time to get in the spirit of Halloween. Also, I'm starting on the Christmas crafts because I'm trying to handmake everything again this year, hopefully with better success than last year (when I swore I was going to hand-make things, and then cracked at the end and wound up buying everything anyway. I really don't want to do that this year). I have some really excellent and totally do-able ideas this year though, so I'm super-psyched to get a head's up on them - I will never be one of those people to have all their Christmas gifting done in mid-July (growing up, a friend's mom was like that; how the hell did she do it?), but maybe I'll have it done before Thanksgiving? That would be refreshing.

I got some important things done today, like the info for updating my address on my state ID, changing my loan billing information, dropping my Euclidean Geometry class, and doing some laundry, but right now I'm wide awake, restless, and itching to move. Why does it always hit me in the middle of the night?

Right? IDK if you've ever read Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs: A Low Culture Manifesto, but there's a part in the introduction where he talks about everything connecting and making sense in the moments when you're about to fall asleep. And ain't it the truth. Some of my best inspiration comes to me as I'm falling asleep.

Also, your Halloween cards are marvelous! Ku-dos.

Ha ha, I've read most of Klosterman's older stuff, though I haven't caught up with him in several years now :-/ He's so right, though. I feel most alert in the middle of the night, too, which doesn't work well when my work day starts at 7:30 am (meaning, I'm in work, at work, by 7:30). Siiigh.

Thank you! I love crafts, but I'm still pretty new to them, so everything is kind of an experiment, and all of it is on a pretty tight budget.
