Cough, cough ... cue Puccini ...

Still manky, which is to be expected, but I was very sensible and spent the weekend in bed or inside save for a few short walks in the warm part of the day, and well rugged up. Back to work tomorrow, which will not be fun, but they have craft specials going off to the printer and someone who knows something about craft should look at them before they go.

However, nice things have come out of the blue! My dearest artist friend is studying set design at NIDA and needed to borrow a spinning wheel for her assessment. I supplied mine, with a few bits of dressing, and she is off to commit acts of great art. "But!" she said down the phone, "I am not just calling in a borrowing state of mind! I have a gift! From a set!"

And so she showed up tonight with a treasure from the Farscape film she worked on the other year: a genuine Scorpius mask. You can imagine how much this made me giggle.  The lights on the side still work and all. I will have to make him a head to go inside for the full freaky effect. I have the best friends ...

It sounds as if you are coming out the other side of the plague, then. Yay for the human powers of healing!

One question for the craft impaired though -- by spinning wheel, d'you mean like Rumpelstiltskin? Did I know this about you? You really are the person to know! You are truly amazing in so many ways.

Boo, work. But YAY mask! So it's a kinky bit of explicit AS/S latex porn from you next, Y/Y? :D

I don't know which amuses me more - the gift of the mask (kinky/creepy, btw) or the fact that you are going to make a head for it. I wouldn't even know how to go about making a head. lol

I'm sorry you're not feeling great yet. I hope you make it through your workday okay.

The plague continues over here as well. Ben had a barf fest last night - haven't had one in a while actually, and it brought back some fond, if gross, memories - and we were off to the drop-in today and again tomorrow if the fever doesn't abate. Poor monkey. We're both tired and grumpy today.

you have the most interesting life. it may consist of too much lurgy (this is most likely because you do so many things your body has to just break down every now and then to get a little rest- there are obviously other tactics, but this method seems to be working for you [*smirks*]), but even then it remains more lively than most.

am glad yuo are feeling a touch better. [*pets*]

You wear it! (And make a pic. And then you'd probably need to disinfect it.. XD)

Btw, I always wanted to ask: why do you have a dog as your default user pic?
