How can I become more spontaneous if I have to plan ahead whenever I want to see anybody? Blah.

I don't feel like going to Geek Night tonight. And Laura is going to come over and give us a table and play DDR. But I sort of feel like I'm wasting a perfectly good evening, for some reason. And I have no plans for tomorrow night or Saturday night yet, and that gets to me. I dunno. I mean, I can always just spend the time with Eli, or doing stuff around the apartment, but I like having places to go and people to see. And my next two weekends I'll be out of town... blah.

If you are free
So are we
Or at least me
and we could go shoppe

excuse my lame attempt to rhyme.
my point, though, that, if you wanted to try fabric store again this weekend, i at least have no other plans so assuming i do not become massively ill (working against that) if you let us/me know when you want to go we probly could.
No real planning necessary. :)

shopping would be cool. I'll be going to the Beaver Valley Mall on saturday afternoon to play Dance Dance Revolution, and they have a Halloween store, so I was going to look through their stuff and see if I get inspired. I might ditch the sailor idea if I find something neater. I did sort of want to dress up as Miho from the comic strip Megatokyo... but we'll see. I still worry about the whole sewing-without-a-pattern thing. blah. on the other hand I still think shopping with you and Sally would be a fun adventure!

Sewing without a pattern isn't so bad, depending on what you're making. If you have an existing garment that is kind of like the one you want to make (and that fits you well), you can more-or-less copy it. Otherwise, you can measure yourself (well, get someone else to do the measuring) and roll your own. Just remember to consider the drape of fabric; things cut on the bias hang differently from things that aren't, for instance.
