Snowing snowing snowing. Big fluffy white flakes. And I have chai and a raisin scone.

Time to work, but I hope to enjoy some snow later on!

The end of an error, indeed. I doubt the human race could've fared worse if Gaius frakking Baltar were president for the last eight years.

Goodbye, President Bush. I feel like I should feel more vindicated, but your obvious weariness and befuddlement just makes me sad.

Once I had settled in with the gems, I promptly spilled an entire container of beads over. Graceful, that's me. I spent about an hour backtracking and re-sorting. It was pretty easy except the jumprings got all mixy with the one compartment of seed beads. But after that, I made two purplish necklaces-- one, a large violet chalcedony briolette crowned in red, purple, and pink spinel. Two, a small blue violet chalcedony marquise crowned in shaded amethyst. I've also played around linking some multicolored sapphire, but until I receive the focal they're intended for, I can't really do much. But it is pretty. All pastel and gorgeous. I have some half-finished pieces to complete, then it's all Valentine land here at Sihaya Designs for another week. All hearts and red and pink, pink, pink.

Now, shower-- more tea-- a cookie. Then back to work. I'm taking advantage that I'm not going into DDI until the afternoon tomorrow, so I'm likely to be working until the wee hours.
