Dude. Framing stuff is expensive. I mean, I knew it was expensive, I just didn't know that a 60% discount amounts to around what I thought it would cost full-price.
Dear self: This is why you've been doing extracurricular jobs. Stop freaking out.
I also just signed up for an Irish dance class. It's been three years since I last did it (other than last night, when I put the shoes back on and tried to remember, like, the basic steps of a hornpipe) and I have forgotten most of what I ever knew, but the instructor still recommended intermediate level. I really hope it's not embarrassing. I hate not being great at things, hate being lost and confused and behind. But I'm looking forward to learning again, and getting off my computer-addicted butt, and maybe meeting some new people.
It'll mean having to watch House on Tuesdays, but even I know that's a bad reason not to sign up for something.
And tomorrow I am on mandatory telework, so I do not have to get dressed! At least until it's time for Yom Kippur services. Or time to walk down the hall to do laundry.
Hm. It may be tough tomorrow to refrain from adding to one of the three WsIP on my list while working from home. Speaking of which: Here are some stories I have enjoyed lately.
I wish House were the kind of fandom that embraced a kink meme.
In conclusion: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtVh8kVZ_XM (Zooey & Joseph's bank robbery dance)

Date: Sep. 17th, 2010 11:48 am (UTC)I hope the class will be good. Some schools/teachers can be more business-like, oriented toward training students for competition; another teacher I had set aside class time for improv, which I hate; and this one is 60m of solo and 30m of ceili (group, like square dancing), which I like less - but we'll see. I registered for the first trimester, so if it's a disaster, it'll only be a disaster until Thanksgiving.
