Purple Peep Eater.

So horribly busy right now, making things.  I've discovered something about myself...I have a hard time feeling motivated to work unless I have a mission.  I need deadlines and projects and a good poke, or else I stagnate.  How immature of me!

rumdiculous, by the way, is a total sweetheart who sent me a serendipitous impromptu package which I received just in the nick of time (I was about to descend into a session of self-pity...I'm feelin' weak today).    I opened it up and was rewarded with a purple plush bunny shaped like a Peep, and I love Peeps.  Among iconic sugar treats there's nothing cuter...though I admit I like them best when they're just a bit stale.

Thanks, kiddo.  :-)  You make me smile.

Back to work.  A whole flock of masks are cut out on my living room floor and just lay there like flattened roadkill from a bizarre steamroller/Mardi Gras mishap.  The pantheon of Egyptian god masks mocks me with its half-finished state.  I can't rest until everyone is properly gilded for a trip to the afterlife (or perhaps just some masked ball).

No, that's sort of what I was going for. :-) I'm the queen of obscure references (BIG Mystery Science Theater 3000 fan from waaaay back).

OMG, seriously? That's so funny... I've heard of MST3000 but never really got into it. But seriously, I didn't think anyone else knew that crazy song. Learn something new every day...
