I have been a little crafting fool since Wednesday.

I was finally assigned an editor for my Threads Magazine article on my little bottlecap pincushions. She say they have a photoshoot this Wednesday and could I get some out in the mail. I say sure, if i work all weekend, as I have given out most of what i have or they are out for the book still. She says great! I say great!

I work like a slave all weekend, a half dozen of this, a four pack of that, a few of this, a few of that, lots of singles (see my flickr pics to the right). I was up till 4am thurs, for and saturday, and pulled an all nighter last night. I didn’t hit the bed until 9am, and only then for a couple hours. I even took my stuff with me to my MIL’s house to work on while I was there.

The editor calls again today, I tell her they are going out fedex momentarily with the given account number and she should see them tommorrow. She hen says something akin to “Oh well, not a big deal we have another shoot next week too.”

Aroo? “You do?”

“Oh yeah, we have them once a month.”

“Oh really…” In my brain I’m cussing, really foul stuff. I went without dinner, I skipped breakfast. I’m aft girl and I skipped food! I didn’t nap all weekend - I LOVE NAPS! LOVE THEM! I could have had a week and a half to get them out instead of three days? :doh:

I’m so tired my tinnitus is way louder than normal and I have to turn up the TV a few more bars to hear it.

Speaking of TV, our believed TiVo (whom we worship in a way that is surely unholy by any law od nature) has gone insane… out of the blue and he thinks we’re religious black country music loving gay teenagers.

When I came home from shopping (and spending too much money at JoAnn’s on felt when by god I didn’t need more) he had both receivers recording. One was recording “The Coyote Ugly” whatever reality contest on CMT - an channel I never watch. The other was recording some show on MTV2 that was basically cruising around hollywood with rappers. WTF? I look on the suggestions list and there are at least 8 programs it recorded that totally make no sense, since our tivo knows us so well it’s scary.

Some show on Logo, religious channel program, a kids cartoon, a Felicity episode and even more junk I can barely remember - just a complete random mishmash of crap we would never watch, have never seen or want to see. And worse, stuff TiVo has never recorded before. It’s as if TiVo suddenly got Alzheimer’s and got trigger happy.

We had a software upgrade download the other day, I wonder if that might be behind it.

Other than lack of sleep the only thing worth reporting is I found a kick ass art history nerd book at Half Price books, and clipped one of my toenails into the quick. The sensation of it is driving me nuts.
