catchup

you might be wondering:
1. how was Snakes? it was hysterical. i think the people at other showings got even more into the spirit of what i'd expected [yelling, throwing rubber snakes, rocky horroring it, basically], but still - full of gore, gratuitous snake bite locations and an amazing scene near the end which i can't even hint at because it would ruin it. it's got to do with the big dude in the orange shirt. and, of course, the LINE. also, watching Jen knit a sock through the entire thing.

2. lacewings is gorgeous. finished pictures to come. mayhap i can bug someone at LK on wednesday to oblige. i also managed to get a few necessary photos for No Sheep as I was blocking it.

3. work? i seem to have taken the weekend off. don't tell my editor.

i am also in design hell. i can imagine that many designers can pull a stitch pattern out of the sky when they need it and it's perfect. me, however -- i'm the one that's swatched about 12 patterns, and none of them are working for the piece i need to design for BGK2. don't tell jillian.

seriously, i have pulled every single stitch book out off my shelves, gone through them all page by page, and none are right. once again, i have to put it aside until i can see more clearly.

i am in restless, not sure where i'm supposed to be mode. hoping it will pass soon. i have stuff to do.
