Feb. 26th, 2025 12:31 pmA write-up for the Victorian weekend is in the works, so no big breakdown of it today, but I will say that the entire weekend was completely fabulous, and thank Zod for my antidepressants because I actually was able to enjoy everything and not feel glum!
Things went seriously downhill once I got home, though. I woke up on Monday morning to find that my car had been towed from the apartment lot, which was infuriating because we had all our cars registered. I called and tried to figure out what the hell happened, and the clueless dude on the other line just kept saying that we "weren't in the system". I produced the email confirmation that we were, in fact, registered, but because it didn't have the permit numbers listed it basically did me no good. FLAMES.
So I took a long lunch and M and I went to liberate the car. M was waaaay more chill about it than I expected, because he blew a gasket last time this happened, and it was $330 down the drain. I guess he was way more relaxed because our tax returns had finally come in, and we hit the halfway mark on our savings goal.
Tuesday was equally stupid, as I was pulled into the Captain's office and told that my counterpart at the main facility had a vendetta against me and was tracking my movements to see if she could prove that I was abusing my time off. First, fuck all the way off, lady. Second, why? Well, I found out today why, because a friend in the admin office told me that Bitch is under active investigation for fraternizing with a married superior. So it looks like she's trying to deflect attention away from herself.
Anyway, things are considerably quieter today. It's been a pretty good day overall, save for a dull headache. I'm taking a break from sewing this week to just exist quietly for a while, then I'll start sewing on my red dress for the May tea. I want to give myself plenty of time to work on that, because this last dress took three months, even with two weeks of vacation where I really knocked out a lot of the foundation skirt.
Write-up for the finished ballgown is now up on my blog!
