Can you hear me? No. You can't. My voice is gone.

So, I was going to show you pictures of the project I have been working on, but I guess I left my camera cord and my SD reader in Sacramento:( Go me.

(so here is a really adorable picture of a hare standing on a tortoise instead)

I started on a bag for my sister today. It's her payment for designing my blog header and buttons, and I think we can all see who got a better deal out of this transaction. (Hint: It's me.) She wanted a bag big enough to hold all of the things she has to carry around on a busy day, so I am (sort of) using the weekend away bag pattern from Heather Ross's (what's the proper way to apostrophe a name than ends in 'S' again?)  Weekend Sewing.  I am going to alter it a little because what fun is just going straight off the pattern? we all like a little adventure. And the possibility of huge disaster, right? yes.

Also, in other new, I have lost my voice. My roommates have both been sick, and last night my throat hurt when I was falling asleep, and this morning it has progressed to a full fledged cold with no voice. Hopefully it will be back by tomorrow, as K and D's were... I woke up early this morning to take an exam in my philosophy class, and am ready to spend the rest of my day lazing about watching movies and not talking, ha.

this me illustrating roughly how I feel right now.

Also, Larisa, an indie biz classmate, sweetly nominated me for the "beautiful blogger award." So here are seven about me:
1- I was born in a teenyweeny town on Lake Huron in Michigan.
2- I like all kinds of music and have an ongoing CD exchange with one of my friends where we alternate making each other CDs with new music we have discovered on them.
3- This summer I am taking a radio production class
4- I don't like listening to NPR in different cities because I don't like not knowing who each person speaking is. (haaa)
5- I am planning on going to law school.
6- I am really shy at meeting new friends, and tend to stick with the ones I already have.
7- One of my biggest pet peeves is when strangers stand too close to me in line.

I am not going to nominate anyone, because I think all the blogs I read deserve this;) So If you want it, take it, you are now a beautiful blogger!:D

Okay, and finally, if you want a laugh, and to take a dance break go here and listen to their music/watch their videos. (just FYI, if you are sensitive about language you might want to use caution.)
