More Accomplishing

So, Ada is just about as done as she's going to be for this con, I think. I may put the straps on her shoes, but I'm thinking I'm going to totally go over those again later, so I may just wait. Oh, and if anyone knows where I could get two or three yards of two-inch wide black velvet ribbon, I haven't been able to find any. White Mage Yuna is oh so close to being done - I just need to do a little stiching on the boot uppers and then glue them to the base shoes, but I did that stupid 'forgetting the thread I needed in the sewing room' thing again, so it'll have to wait. On summoner Yuna, I'm just going through and doing all the little tiny things I've got left - I think the only real big one is the staff, which I need to buy gold paint for to finish off tomorrow. And augh, I forgot how bad epoxy smells.

Also, if you haven't already, give me an opinion, because as we all know, I am horribly indecisive and can't make up my own mind.

Method To My Madness

It probably comes as a bit of a surprise to anybody who's actually seen the disaster area that is my room to learn that I have any method at all for organizing all my shit, but I do. And occasionally it serves me well - I found the draft of a Rufus-fic I was working on back in the fall I thought I had lost in my folder of fic drafts and character notes. I honestly need some sort of system because I'm so totally absentminded - if I were to just put stuff down anywhere (which I do sometimes), I'd never find it again.

Of course, I think I'm better at finding things when I'm not actually looking for them. Case in point: I was trying to figure out where I put down the print copy of that Ada/Leon fic I was talking about a couple weeks ago, with all the edits that still need to be typed up and a bunch of playlists scrawled out on the back. I didn't find it. What I found instead were my clip-on sunglasses I've been looking for for weeks, and the sketch that shows all of Asher's piercings that I was sure had either been tossed out or gone through the wash in a pocket. Maybe the fic will turn up when I'm looking for something else, later....

And as before, opinions, please!
