feeling...sluggish. I had a doctor's appointment this morning, and I stopped for a quick hamburger on the way home...bad idea. Stress + IBS + McDonalds = no productivity today. So far all I've gotten done is cutting the bones for both backs and half of the left front. I had to walk away partially to lay in the fetal position and partially because cutting those fuckers is HARD and was really starting to hurt. 

So now I'm on the couch with a copy of PoF planning how to make this gown. Part of me thinks it's inane to think I can make a gown and finish these stays by Saturday...but I have four full days...I used to make whole gowns in ONE. If I can just get myself FOCUSED. The goal for tomorrow is to have the gown cut out, all the boning in and either the binding started or the back pleated. I can use my old stays for fittings and an emergency back up. They're too small but I could always lace them more open or make a quick stomacher if I got desperate...

Someone give me a pep talk please.

Lets sum up my day...I can now add "Vomitting while driving" to my resume. There was no where to pull over, and luckily I had forgotten a bowl I bought at Bennington Pottery in the car...yippie...My mother informs me that she mastered this skill while pregnant, makes me never want to have children...ever. 

I got home around 11:30 and have gotten off the couch twice to make emergency runs...so far toast from dinner is doing iffy. 

This means my grand plans of cutting out a mock-up of my bodice ain't gonna happen tonight.

Still trying to decide what to do about work tomorrow, I feel like I should...but I really don't want to try that whole driving-with-bowl thing again...decisions, decisions.
