2:09 pm	Request for more responses Remember that poll I posted about pricing for my Etsy shop? Only Kyle and Cody answered, and I really need more responses if I'm going to get a better idea of what prices I should set, so if you have a couple minutes, I'd really appreciate your input. Thanks! Poll Current Mood: okay (cogito ergo sum)

Please answer the poll before looking to see what the prices I currently have are.

8:58 pm	Etsy listing frenzy! A bunch of new items are now in my Etsy shop! Sparkly flower hair ties and pom pom critters are up now, and keep an eye out for crocheted roses soon! http://kethrim.etsy.com Current Mood: bouncy (cogito ergo sum)
1:23 am	Late-night wondering Why is it that my most creative, productive time is at night... after craft stores are closed and I'm just missing a few things to do what I have in mind? Must... resist... the call... of ebay! I'm crocheting long-stemmed roses- they're adorable, but I need pipe cleaners for the stems. I made one without, to test out the pattern, and I think that I might make a few more, as baby-safe toys, until I can get my hands on some pipe cleaners. Current Mood: creative (cogito ergo sum)

1:33 am	Going wild with sparkly flowers I have to buy more barrettes- I've made so many flowers that I've run out of barrettes! I need to make a trip to a dollar store and see if I can score some for cheaper than at CVS. I'm also thinking of doing some other things with the flowers, like magnets maybe. I'm not really sure what else I could do with them. I now have a twitter account! I'm Kethrim, unsurprisingly- http://twitter.com/kethrim Current Mood: busy (cogito ergo sum)

4:12 pm	Think Spring! This weekend, I got inspired to crochet lots of little sparkly flowers, and then I made them into barrettes. They're up on my Etsy shop now, and I think that they're adorable: http://www.kethrim.etsy.com I'm hoping that since it's (starting to be) spring that these will sell; I haven't made any sales yet on Etsy and it makes me sad. :( So although it's hard to capture the sparkly in a picture, I'm hoping that these will sell well. Buy some! Buy some for your friends! Tell your friends to buy some for you! Or for themselves! Or for someone else! !!!!! Current Mood: happy (2 thinkers |cogito ergo sum)

10:27 pm	I like to sell stuff I've started up an Etsy shop- right now all it has is catnip mice and hats, but I have some more stuff I need to put up there. www.kethrim.etsy.com Go check it out! Also, I have two CafePress shops- One has fencing stuff- www.cafepress.com/gofencing and the other has my photography- www.cafepress.com/minperfection Let me know what you think of my stuff, and feel free to buy some if you feel the urge... especially from my Etsy shop, as I haven't sold anything there yet. Current Mood: very very tired (cogito ergo sum)

7:10 pm	Happy news So Elijah said that he wanted to go to Harkness today. We walked around the gardens for a little while (they manage to be beautiful even when most of the plants are dead and the flowers are gone), then when we got to a nice little alcove in the Oriental Garden, Elijah pulled out the ring and asked, "Will you marry me?" and I said yes, and he slipped the ring onto my finger. It has 19 purple sapphires channel-set all the way around in white gold, and I love it, and Elijah. :D More pictures on Facebook, in the Elijah and Me album. Current Mood: ecstatic (16 thinkers |cogito ergo sum)

2:23 am	I am at a loss Have more work than usual due tomorrow. Had time today to do it. Did some of it. Still have Latin and French and more Latin to do. Still can't make myself do it. I'm resigned to a long night but I still would like some sleep. And this isn't stuff I can just blow off, the French is two short papers that I need to turn in tomorrow, so those need to get done. I can blow off some of the Latin, but the other Latin is for my independent study, which means that if I don't do it he'll know and not be happy, cause I didn't have it all done last week or the week before and I have a week to do each assignment so really I should be able to get it done. It's not that hard, it's mostly just that it takes a long time to do cause I have to look up every other word. Tried turning off the internet to take away some of the distractions but that didn't work. Need to focus and stay awake but don't know how. I hate this. I know now that I'm not really cut out for the academic world, I don't like studying stuff like this, reading articles and writing about them, studying literature, etc. I want to do stuff, make stuff, stuff more physical than typing out a paper and printing it. That's not what makes me happy and I'm getting really sick of having to do all this stuff that doesn't make me happy. Two weeks until spring break. Just have to make it through to then then I'll get a little break. Current Mood: stressed (5 thinkers |cogito ergo sum)
