reality bites

Ah well, it was a nice holiday while it lasted!

( I slept a lot, as in, a lot of a lot; there may have been seasickness involved )

Now it's back to work and the daily scrub. Ugh.

I am thinking about changing around my sleeping habits though - go to bed around 10-10:30pm, wake up 5:30am and write until it's time to head out for work at 6:30am. I'm waking up at 5:30am anyway, when the gas heater turns on, so why not use the time and space?

handmade question

ST: Disco bag
- shiloh satchel, simplified
- skip the handles, just do the adjustable straps
- leather sides, leather bottom, silver hardware (see if we can match it all),
- echo the multiple lines of the uniform chasings (find a blue on blue that might work for evocation rather than explicit?

Should the main fabric be patterned or plain, do you think? Would you be more likely to use something explicitly fannish, or would you prefer a bag that can pass as non-fannish in a pinch?
