Last month was NaNoWriMo, and I failed to meet the 50,000 word count. While upsetting, this is mostly due to videogames. To rectify this situation, I've banned myself from video games for the month of December. I'm looking at it kinda like Lent, but getting ready for Christmas instead of Easter. And it's working quite well!

I've up my daily word count by quite a bit (though nothing worth showing), and I've gotten some wedding stuff out of the way (see last blog on jewelry). All of these trips to the craft store have pumped my creative juices into full gear. And I'm searching out new territory. Last year, my mom got me a jean jacket. At first sight, I wanted to bedazzle it. (Who wouldn't right? ) But I'm not going to be spending the money on the machine. Luckily, they sell iron-ons!!

Most of the "bejeweled" iron-ons say something like "Princess" or "Rock star." Even my ingrain tacky desire has its limits. I finally found a wicked butterfly patch with big spiky wings. Yea! Too bad its too cold to wear the jean jacket right now.
