I've had a horribly hectic few days of Worldcon stuff. Seems to be over now, though!
Before that, I started making a Plokta Pigeon (under orders). I emailed ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif) asphodeline and asked her how much stuffing I'd need, as it's sold by weight online. "Maybe a kilo?" she said, not having thought about it by weight before.
I may need to make a bigger pigeon....
(I'm a bit scared to open the bag, in case it goes fwoof and takes over the house!)
I've also been having Amazon stress: I ordered pixiejuice's birthday present from her Amazon wishlist, as I often do, and thought nothing more of it. I had a couple of emails telling me that Amazon's new in-house delivery people tried to deliver, but thought they were just being polite. It didn't even occur to me that they might not be actually telling *her* that, but apparently so: no cards left, and no emails to her (even though they were wishlist items, so they knew which account they were going to). Magic. When I twigged (on her birthday), I sent Amazon a very stroppy email that ended up with a free month of Prime for us and the parcel being redelivered to me. So, on the one hand her present will be a week late but, on the other, it won't be in boring Amazon wrapping paper, as I re-did it.
Other than that, I'm not entirely sure that I've done anything that didn't involve faffing with email, last-minute editing, and beyond-last-minute proof reading for days. It certainly feels like that. |
