Is this thing on?
Sep. 11th, 2009 10:55 amToday is the official "Grand Opening" of Avalanche, and since my husband and I have made it a habit to have date night once a week, we'll be going there to see the celebration AND have date night. :3
Aside from that, nothing really going on today. I didn't get around to straightening up the guest room yesterday, so I'll probably end up doing that, followed by seeing if I can track down the number for the Clarion Hotel today and call and inquire as to their hiring status at the moment. Since I didn't get the job that I wanted, I'm once again looking. I can't say that what I've seen on Craigslist is all that promising - y'know, aside from the Pope Hats and the signed first edition of Plato's Republic.
I'm currently looking at patterns as well. I want to make a witch costume for Halloween (since it is my understanding that the whole group will be dressing up as witches for our Halloween party, ala Practical Magic) and a new party dress for my husband's Christmas party. I have an idea of what I want...but I can't seem to find a pattern that I like enough to actually spend the money to make. Well, let me clarify - I think I found the perfect pattern for the witch costume, it's the party dress I'm having problems with. Everything is slinky or requires the woman to be a stick to pull off or has no straps. I don't care if I have the bust line to pull off the strapless dresses...I want straps, or better yet, sleeves! After all, it's winter!
But I digress...not a whole lot that I can do at the moment.
