It's been so long

That I don't even remember what this looks like. Hopefully not terrible, though someday I'd love to actually organize things to my preference.

So I'm working, as usual, but also again. I've not lost my job, though some "restructuring" is making my asshole chafe like the dickens. (Ha! That's class! See how I didn't say "I'm really fucking irritated that these fuckers are fucking with my shit." Instead, I used "like the dickens" to fully represent my gentile nature. Also "asshole", because anus doesn't fully encompass the irritation I feel.)

I've also been working on a year long knit-along (KAL) for LSG, and am stuffing that into a monthly KAL-meets-competition in which I represent team Star trek. For one "challenge" I am knitting a nebula-inspired shawl. It's going, but not fast enough for my tastes.

"You can create any wondrous item whose prerequisites you meet. Enchanting a wondrous item takes one day for each 1,000 gp in its price. To enchant a wondrous item, you must spend 1/25 of the item's price in XP and use up raw materials costing half of this price."
In translation, making a wondrous item requires not only raw materials and special skills, but a healthy chunk of your own personal experience/existence.
