Summer Summer Summer
Jun. 3rd, 2014 07:39 pmAnother gorgeous day out there -- little cooler than yesterday, but still 73, so I'm quite satisfied. Especially since it's supposed to rain the next two days, meh. Ah well, we got a good run of weather, so I'm pretty happy regardless. :D
I've also got some new "summery" clothes -- since shorts aren't really professional, Mom's given me a couple of her skirts (more or less on loan until she fits them again). Of course, they required something appropriate in the shoe department, so that led to us going up to Marshall's and getting me some sandals. We got a nice pair for 24 bucks -- they're comfy, beige enough to go with most things, and they've got butterflies all over them which makes me think of Victor and Alice. XD And it didn't take us long to find them, so that was nice.
Speaking of butterflies, Butterfly dragon has hatched, and has been named Alice, as promised. I also have a Dodo cooking in the nursery, so I'll be able to add my Earth/Air opposites to the Opposites island soon. Still working on the Current to go with my Plasma, and this month's gemstone, the Pearl. Which I have to name after my friend Gigs, since she named her Turquoise after me. :) That'll live up on the top of the Gemstone Island with my Emerald and Ovalith, since that has the big pond where it can swim and plenty of room to fly.
Got a good chunk written on "In the Land of the Dead" today -- hooray productivity. I also got a surprising amount done with tags, despite feeling kind of rushed at times in my attempt to keep up. And -- I won two in a row with Thrall's custom deck! Finally getting some traction with that guy! :D Granted, one was a concede, but it was pretty clear the guy/gal quit because he/she didn't have much to work with. Feels good to get something done with that character. Now I gotta start leveling up the ones who remain. . .
Right now, though, I gotta catch up on my dash and have my dessert. Later!
