i'm booooooored

song+ nothing. i left my ipod at home
book+ november previews
scent+ dusty comics
quest+ catching up on my subs at work
upper+ i know what costume i'm wearing to work tomorrow
downer+ i can't get overtime. it would be nice.
attire+ grey tinkerbell tee and jeans
drink+ water. yay water.


it's almost hallowe'en. i have my costume figured out, i'm gonna wear my pajamas, house slippers and kitteh ears and tail. i'll be a housecat! xD ..shut up, it's awesome.

DOD is starting to fall behind on delivering. they're still on the orders payed Sep 12. on the upside, that was the heaviest ordering day, so once they finish, they should breeze through the other days up to the 30th. i payed the 29th, so i'll be one of the last shipped, but i've been counting on a longer wait since the beginning. i should still have her by Thanksgiving, i think. i really need to get saving so i can order the next doll on my list. i'd like to have the funds to order Xavin (and everything for her customization) by the end of February. that's coming up pretty soon, really. especially when you consider there are so many other things that are higher priority.

so far this week i've racked up 2 hours of overtime. as being payed overtime isn't currently in the budget, i've been informed i get to clock out around 4 tomorrow. yeah it's an early start to hallowe'en, but i won't be doing anything and kyu will still be working, so essentially i'll be not-paid to sit around bored for 2 hours. sounds awesome. not. X.x

i really need to do something creative soon, i'm getting bored. i was undertaking the task of taking in all the storebought doll clothes that i got for Bea that were too big, but i'm through the shirts, and i can't let out the skirts until i find my seam ripper. i want something more creative.. like when i did the finger separation on the kids, that was fun and absorbing. it only took a few hours though, i need something that'll take longer, but not so long i walk away without finishing it.

i want to get better thread for my sewing machine, and i want to try a handful of doll-related crafts i've seen. the big obstacle to doing these fun things is that i'm sorely lacking in funds, and budgeted strictly through the new year. even cheap fun is too pricey for me lately. i hate being broke.

Happy Halloween! I came to work as a black eyed pea. Pictures on the blog tomorrow.

Welcome to life as an adult. Eventually it does get better. The being broke part, at least until (if) you decide to have kids and then it is back to square one.
