Well, hullo thar lower back, nice to know you're unhappy with me right now
All of my fabric is cut out, including the fabric for Lydia's cape. Once the table is back in its original form (taking the leaf out) I'll start sewing. In the mean time, I'm going to sit and enjoy some Saiyuki. I'm currently on the second episode of the second season of the first run (read: not RELOAD), and once this DVD is done, I'll probably play some Animal Crossing while sitting on the heating pad, hopefully getting some of the tension out of my back.
I think the only gripe I have about sewing is that while cutting out fabric, my back almost always ends up extremely tense. I'm sure that this is because of my height vs the height of the table that I'm using to cut my fabric. I spend a good chunk of time bent over pinning and cutting, and until I get a bigger living space and a room officially dedicated to sewing, I won't have room for a taller table. My only lament, and not really something that can be fixed any time soon.
Anyway, since I've decided to re-watch Saiyuki, I've forgotten how funny/awesome the series is. Of course the second season is all filler (some of it was eventually retconned into Saiyuki Gaiden) because it overtook the manga, but at least the story was approved by the manga-ka and she also did the character designs for Homura, Shien and Zenon. Perhaps I'll get around to re-reading Saiyuki Gaiden because I read most of it in one push, and then didn't read it again until it had been finished and I had picked up from where I had left off, only vaguely remembering certain things about the story. I'm fairly sure Minekura put Homura, Shien and Zenon in some of the background panels of Gaiden, but I find that I can't recall exactly. So, clearly it's time to re-read that particular arc.
I suppose I should set about to getting all of my sewing stuff squared away, but I think that I should get the table back to it's regular size. The dining room really isn't big enough to accommodate the arrangement as it stands now. I guess I'm stuck until my husband gets home - getting the table back to its original position is a two person job.
