ellenmillion: (ellen with wrench)
Sunday was eaten by a virus! Saturday was eaten by a baby shower! As choices go, I would take Saturday over Sunday anytime.

The baby shower was very non-traditional - we had a henna party with Indian food, and I made naan and it was all very, very fun and delicious. I have a turtle henna-ed on my wrist now, and a deep desire to pursue this form of artwork. Seriously... *love.*

We also watched a bollywood movie, and even though it meant getting home at 2 in the morning*, it was worth it. American movies are greatly lacking in big gaudy dance numbers with really bad costuming.

(*I left before 1 AM, but had to drop off two of the girlz and needed a few things at the store. How long could it take at 1 in the morning? I thought. Hah! There were seven people in each checkout line, most of them with heaping carts... and most of them in formal evening wear. It was VERY bizarre. I did not ask.)

The virus... we shall not speak of. I believe I have won. But jeezus, it took ALL day. Not a happy camper.

Today, I got to work, and my car is smoking badly from the engine. ARGH! May have a major oil leak, we shall have to see.

Ugh, yuck, blech! Scanner-ugly, but here's some art - semi-final sketch before inking. Critique welcome! http://www.fantasticportfolios.com/salon/viewtopic.php?t=167

In addition, I got a cell phone yesterday, and I already hate it. I'm not entirely sure it will work, the support line is unhelpful, and I wanted to be able to USE it on my trip tomorrow, but activation takes 24 hours, so I won't know until TONIGHT if it will work or not, and by then it will be too late to get another if it won't. I don't know my number yet because that's part of being activated. What a hassle. And I will SO be that person glaring around for that IDIOT that's letting their phone ring and ring and annoy everyone before realizing 'oh crap, that's ME!'

I love me my technology and tablet PC and my digital toys, but phones? Not so much.
