Happy Thanksgiving, to those of us who are Americans and celebrating today.

I won’t be in town tomorrow, so no posts tomorrow.

Miss Vampire seems to have taken a significant lead…

I’m not dead yet, although I really feel close to it right now. Here I had a glorious summer weekend coming up and I had all sorts of things planned, and then I caught whatever bug has been going around the place where I teach on Friday. Goodbye new kitten, goodbye tomato plants, goodbye movie date, goodbye paperdolling time, hello sitting in bed with a stack of comic books and glasses of ginger ale carefully refilled by my dear Brian. I still feel awful, but I don’t think there’s much competition for doctor’s appointments at campus clinics in the morning in the middle of summer, so at least I shouldn’t have to wait long to get in.

The best thing about this whole long miserable weekend was that I found that Castle Waiting is back. Expect to see a paperdoll from this series at some point, because it’s one of my favorite stories ever.

But in the meantime, I’m still miserable, so today there are only ten-year old wedding dresses. The good news is that I’m getting used to this whole teaching thing, and I’m not overdoing it anymore with the teaching job and the TOEFL job and the tutoring, so I want to get back to drawing soon…

oh, and I found the dresses that go with my blonde teenager doll. They were in a zip file titled “pd-useless-1.zip” and I know I am the harshest critic of my own work but, really, they weren’t THAT bad, what was I thinking? anyways, I’ll post them soon!
