[Fic] "The Sum of Things," ch. 1, pts. 2 and 3 -- original

Here's the next bit of the NaNo thing. Again, please remember this is the rough draft.

( Chapter One, Parts II and III )

In other news, have been busy with my needle lately -- repaired some underwear with a ripped seam, stiched up the torn lining of my nice wool pants, and lowered the hems of another pair of pants. (I can't figure out why they were hemmed so high in the first place -- I got them 3/4" longer just by undoing the old hem and reducing it by half. *shakes head at silly clothing designers*)

I can't use a sewing machine to save my life, but I hand-stitch pretty well!

[Meme] Edward Gorey books

Gacked from missmurchison:


The Curious Sofa - You are quite sensual and love a
good romp in every sense of the word! People
are drawn to you and always want you to sit in
their laps!


Which Edward Gorey Book Are You?

Who, me, sexy? *is vastly amused*

[Meme] t-shirt; and Naruto manga

This one gacked from Anne U (whose lj contains too many numbers that I can't remember offhand):

( T-shirt slogans )

All HP/BtVS people can stop reading here:

Have been downloading and reading Naruto manga. (This is tenuously legal since I don't save them; I consider it equivalent to library books.) Man, I can't believe I've already finished 15 volumes (not all in one day! sheesh!) and they're still not done with the chuunin exams. To be fair, a war interrupted and battles take a lot of space to draw (much more than to write, since you have to show all the action instead of just summarizing), and it's all very interesting, but still!

...There are obviously downsides to reading source material after being exposed to stuff via fanfiction. You keep waiting for the good bits to come, and you miss some of the impacts since you already know a bunch of spoilers. Then again, I've never minded much about spoilers anyway...

*shrug* Eh, I flip ahead and read the last chapters of books before I reach the middle. I don't think I have much right to complain here, especially since it's my own fault. :-)
