Comin' home...

It's 5.51pm my time. I'm waiting to board my flight and although my flight is scheduled to depart at 6.40pm there is no sign of the plane. Just a shit load of passengers facing one direction and staring into nothing. Some making use of their time by touching up their make-up. Others catching up on their reading material or catching up on lost sleep.

Once again, i have taken advantage of my E.U passport and bought 2 cartons of Dunhill Lights. Definitely not breaking news and obviously no importance to anyone else except myself. But unless you haven't turned on the telly yet and haven't heard, Saddam Hussein was executed earlier today, definitely news worthy.

And apart from that, i'm really excited to get back home. One whole week living at my folks place in an apartment with 4 other individuals is a bit 'in-your-face'. As much as i love being at home with the family, i guess i'm not used to being around so many people.

Anyway, i get home later tonight only to unpack and then repack for a night or two getaway. Yes Hardsequence is having its' FIRST outdoor event. Although solely not ours but one of four rooms, i'm getting more and more excited as the day turns into night.

My sister and i even got busy behind the sewing machine and made a pair of blue gators [fluffy like leg warmers that are worn below the knees that fall to the ground and much like a uniform previously worn by ravers, they're accompanied with a short skirt/shorts and a baby T]. My brother in-law likes to call them "Moon Boots". As ridiculous as they look, i have grown to love the 2 pairs that i already have. It beats wearing the denim 'phat' pants that end up absorbing so much sweat, it feels like i'm carrying bricks.

So the other day, i bought the fake fur. Measured and cut out the template then did all the calculations. Actually all the slaving was done by my sister since i was in charge of picking up all the threads that fell to the ground and pressing the 'backwards' button so she could back stitch. With a few modifications and brain work, the results were much better than the ones' you can buy at the shop. I was well impressed.

Well, i'll be wearing them tomorrow at the event. Will take pics and all that. I just have to figure out which of the HS tshirts i should wear seeing that it starts at 8pm and i think i'll be helping out at the merch stand.

AnyhooooooOooo... i think i'm going to be boarding soon.
