Decided: I'm going to make another dolman sleeve dress, because I love compliments, and I wore it again today and got some more. This time, I'm going to lower the bust point (I find making a new bust point when doing an FBA completely flummoxing and always make it too high) and also do a swayback adjustment. Although reading more about said adjustment, is it just me or do they design patterns so they fit best on someone slouching, and the "swayback" is just good posture? I don't think I'm excessively curvy right there.

Then over Thanksgiving, I'm going to make Butterick B5707 in a cranberry kind of red wool gabardine, hopefully finishing before the holiday open house at work, because that would be really cute for a Christmas thing, right? (That's going to be interesting to FBA. So far, nothing that I've adjusted has been a traditional bodice.)

My foot has stopped hurting, so I'm pretty sure now that I have neither rheumatoid arthritis nor gout. Now I need to get some ankle boots that have no heel and fit my aesthetic, which is proving to be impossible even separately. It's like somebody decided boots should all be in one style.

Fitz is the worst character on Scandal. Rowan is literally more sympathetic. Nobody could possibly dislike Melly anymore. He's just the worst. I hope he gets assassinated for real this season. The only person who comes close to his level of awful and stupid is that woman who didn't know what a freaking snickerdoodle was.
