Re: Continuation

. . . why is it that this seems to me more in-character than any of Rice's books post-Vampire Lestat? I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

. . . I may have to re-install my copy of The Sims.

In other news, we had quite the adventure trying to find your quilling strips. We weren't sure what section they'd be in, so we asked an employee, who wandered around where he thought they were for five minutes before calling a second employee, who did the exact same thing. Finally, ten minutes later, one of them found the tubes. We had all been wandering around the right area, but kept overlooking the tubes; they weren't very noticeable and were near the bottom of the shelves.

I bought one of each colour they had; the total was five tubes of quilling strips, which cost $35 US. My Paypal is tied to my Yahoo email [kindredarmand]. I also bought you a small US flag with the correct number of stars. :p

Is there anything else you need/want in the package? I've also added a few extra things as I've been cleaning my room. As for the USB camera cable, I mailed it out on Tuesday afternoon with a special extra, so you should hopefully get it by early next week.

I bought all the material I need for Armand's outfit when we were at JoAnn's and have ordered the wig. The only two things I'm missing are a leather belt and a pair of wool hose. Well, and a pattern for the doublet and possibly a sewing machine. I might go to the local seamstress and get an estimate of how much it would cost her to make it; as much as I would like to do it on my own, I have doubts over whether my skills or my patience are up to the task.

I've also decided that, as of now, Armand will be my only new cosplay for next year. I don't know if you remember the art well enough, but there's some elaborate embroidery on the bottom of Armand's velvet doublet, which I bought the floss for and am planning to do by hand and will probably take at least a month or two. If I'm able to have him finished by early next year, I might add Robin too the line-up. (I've been re-watching Batman: The Animated Series and really like their Robin outfit design.) You shall not be Dickless! (Why is it so fun to abuse his name?)

What do you want to do for Armand and Lestat's fingernails? Odd question, I know; I was thinking just a layer of clear shiny nail protector, but in the Armand art, it looks like they're a silver-white colour, which I could also paint on.

This comment is already probably rather long and frustrating for you to read on your phone, so I shall depart.

. . . with one last comment. I re-organized all my White Wolf printed papers with the rest of my room and discovered a completed character sheet for a Tzimisce. And a Gangrel, and more Tremere, and a Ventrue, and more characters I don't even remember creating. Huh.

Are you glad to be back in Canada? I hope you enjoyed yourself when you were here, even with socially awkward me.
