uneventful weekend

Good morning! We have a sunny Monday morning here. Shawshank is setting up Pippin’s table, and the coffee pot has done its thing. Seems like a typical TinyTown morning.

We had an uneventful Sunday, which is just the way we friggin like it. Once the day had progressed an acceptable amount, Shawshank had the first crack at Tears of The Kingdom. While he played, I spent the morning dealing with fabric and pins. Eventually, he handed off the controller to me. I played and he did some light chores and made us a lunch of leftovers.

I fixed the waist in my new Avengers pants. The pattern Shawshank‘s mom gave me is very, very idiot proof. She followed it exactly when she made the first pair, but between the heavier fabric and the default size, they don’t drape much and need to sit very low on my hips to be comfortable throughout the whole garment. I added some overall length when I made the Disney pants, and added about another inch-ish that length again when I cut for the Avengers pants. To fix what I fucked up, all I did was cut the elastic out, trimmed some of the excess fabric off the edge, and turned a new waistband. They turned out just fine in the end, just the right length.

But have I taken pics of the new pants yet? Fuck no. You’ll have to wait until I assume a human form again.

We headed out to Shady Acres in the afternoon. Shawshank‘s mom was thrilled with how my pants turned out. We brought the Switch over to show off Tears of The Kingdom. Shawshank wanted to show his parents THE FIRST BIG DIVE.

Today will be a bunch of the same, minus the chores. I cut and pinned some fabric last night, and it didn’t go well at all. Shawshank told me I can’t work on the whore-red genie pants while he’s home because he doesn’t want to hear me dealing with the mass of slippery polyester, so I’ll have to find something else to do.
