Chain of technology fail this morning. iPhone’s been acting up so I did a backup & restore. That crashed spectacularly because my laptop startup disk was full. Here we are 90 minutes later with everything almost fixed. Not a great start to Friday tho. Oh, and I’m late to work.

Just checked out Sew Make Create at the tail end of the Grand Opening weekend. Lovely little shop! I really hope Melissa puts on some sewing classes soon. That place is going to be such a temptation, I know it.

Was just inspired to donate to http://www.australianmarriageequality.com. Simply making posts on FB just leads to frustration, and I’d rather take positive action.

(Why don’t we have any same-sex kiss-in protests in Australia? Because I will totes smooch all of ya’z. Hey @Bex – we need to MAKE THIS HAPPEN.)
