on my way

22 October 2007

A quiet storm is brewing. It's cold and windy outside. Kind of warm in my room though.

Apparel production is so unbearably irritating sometimes. I think just doing the invisible zipper for the pleated skirts might have caused several white hairs to sprout on my head. The slider actually came off the zip twice. And I had to force it back on both times. My fingers are still hurting. No zippers to sew for the next skirt, thankfully.

I actually unpicked, tacked, sewed, unpicked, sewed again, unpicked again, tacked again and sewed once again from 5.45pm till 10pm. And I actually took a step back from saturday's progress. What the heck. Now I have 6 hours left to finish the skirt. And I have tonight to do the journal, which is supposed to be as long as some martial arts instruction manual.

My cat is empathic to me. When I'm happy and nuts, he avoids me so that he doesn't have to be hugged. When I'm sad and down, he comforts me by approaching me, meowing at me and snuggling up against my leg. That white tub of lard really makes me smile.
