Is it madness?

So I didn't get a lot of sleep last night, or the night before, or... not sure when I actually slept well last exactly. I was considering going to sleep earlier... but then I put on the Hollow Crown on PBS because I wanted to see if the HD made things even shinier. (I'm going to have to compare later, I have it on the DVR).


So then I watched it all the way through again. Much flailing and fangirl squealing was to be had. I'd wanted to hold off on talking too much about it previously since I knew it wasn't going to be on tv until tonight. :3

I should have gone to sleep then, but since it went off I've just been bopping around the apartment because of all the fangirl feels. lol

I think I'm also slightly (slightly? loooool) delirious from lack of sleep, but hey, at least I'm having fun?

I did some writing on my book, yay for inspiration! I still have a lot of plotbunnies to get in my book, but I don't think I'm really going to have time to write until November because I have so much stuff going on lol. I think I might do nano again this year?

There's a couple of things I want for my Monster High photoshoot, one might be more difficult than I was expecting to get. One thing is just an art supply so that should be easy enough. The other is a doll, which I didn't think would be as hard to find as it seems like it's going to be.

I also looked for Loki!boots again tonight. Still no luck. Well, that's not exactly true. There was a really neat boot that Scottie found for me. I went to go look for a slightly bigger size since that boot was a bit small looking for me. I then realized that they were kid's boots. I have bought kids shoes before, but they were still a bit small. I'M NOT KIDDING WHEN I SAY I'M SMALL. xD
I'm going to need like platform stillettos to be big enough. Let's just ignore the fact that shoes like that would probably just make me average hieght maybe
I also found a REALLY, REALLY awesomely perfect looking boot. But they were $70, which is outside of my budget. xP It's possible that they were terribly uncomfortable or wouldn't have even fit, I didn't actually try them on since I wasn't going to buy them. But my quest for Loki!boots continues. xP

I didn't get quite as far on my sculpt as I would have liked, but I finished getting the ears sculpted, then attached them to the head. It took quite a bit of fiddling to get them to the way that I wanted, but I rather like them. The ears are meant to be extra pointy for her character. hehe

Then I did a little more refining on the head, then sculpted the face! I'm really liking how she's coming along. Tomorrow I'm going to do a couple more minor things to her face. :3
I also worked a bit on leg placement, but the pieces aren't put together yet. I should be able to get that finished tomorrow as attaching the parts together is really all I have left to do (and sculpting the shoulders, neck, and hindquarters of course; but those need the parts to be put together first.)

I've pretty much decided that I'm going to do sculpted hair on this pony because I don't have the doll hair available and I'd rather finish the pony sooner rather than later. It doesn't mean future ponies won't have real hair though, but I think it's a good idea to at least try it this way to see if I like sculpted hair for them. Maybe it will be awesome. xD

I also continued working on my book today! I still have a lot of things that I want to say (including all my lost work, blarg), but I did at least 1500 words today. I also got inspired for another scene early on in the book which is exciting. :3
Scottie and I got into a lengthly discussion of what types of plotbunnies are in the elite plotbunny strike force populating my brain. hehe This stemmed from me changing my status to PLOTBUNNIES: MOBILIZE because I was finally writing out some plotbunnies that have been kicking around in my brain for a few days. If I'm writing something that I just got inspiration for, I tend to have my status as PLOTBUNNY INVASION. I realise this is slightly random, but I want to make sure I remember what he said because it was cute. x3

My Howleen came in the mail today, from the trade I'd talked about about a week ago? She was supposed to come in on the 5th, but she took a meandering route up here. Normally once packages hit WA they come straight up to Anchorage (since we're the biggest city in AK, stuff tends to come here first). Now sometimes it can take a week to move from WA to AK because they're put on a cargo ship... which then waits until it is full. But This time it went quickly from WA to AK! The package went to Ketchikan though first, which made me rather confused. lol But she's finally here with me! I have plaaaans. :3 I have a sister Howleen with defective face paint, so I'm going to switch the clothes from her onto my new Howleen (she's nude) and leave her stock. Then I'm going to make the defective Howleen into a custom! This is something that I've wanted to do since I first saw people's custom Howleens. xD
