Actually busy

My coworker is on vacation today and tomorrow, so am picking up her work too. Which makes me actually busy for a nice change.
I'm a little stressed about it tho. I want to finish on time, cause I start my new dance class tonight, and I don't want to be rushed getting ready for it. I think I'm just being paranoid, cause it does start at 8pm!
Regardless of the busy-ness, I'm going to tootle off to Fry's now, to look for a labelling machine so's I can label all my craft supplies (was inspired by [livejournal.com profile] queen_puff_puff's labeling). My organisation of my craft crap went very well last night. *And* was totally inspired as to how to deal with the beast that is mr jo's computer desk. We are going to cut it in half (it's some wooden planks on two of those heavy duty wire shelving units), well at least have it just on one shelving unit.
Now I get to plan how I want to move the furniture around. I really want both my desks together, and my two bookcases, so I can have all my crafty stuff more in reach. I really want to craft more then I do now.

Great dance class

Well, I have started back up at my old Tues night middle eastern dance class, which I haven't been to in almost/over ? a year. It was really great, but very challenging. Really made me realise how much weight I have put on, and how outta shape I am. But, am not too stressed about it. It's funny, I've actually been feeling not so hungry lately, so am trying to act more on those feelings, and not fall back into my usual eating as a habit.
There were only 8 people in the class tonight. I have been in that class with over 20 people. Malia (the teacher) said at the beginning when her and I were chatting that she had some sort of falling out with some of her regulars (she wasn't sure what exactly) and she didn't even have enough people last session to have the class.
One of my troupe mates is taking the class with me, and she really enjoyed it too, I knew she would like Malia's style of dancing. She was who I learnt from, so even though I'm not uber good, and am feeling a bit un-co lately, it was nice and familiar to come back to the class. There were some other people there that I knew too.

My trip to Fry's earlier was successful, I got a Brother P-touch labelling machine. I got a fairly fancy one, but it's factory refurbished, so was much cheaper then if it had been new. Those tapes are pricey though! Hopefully they will last a good time.
Also got some extension cables for the playstation2 controllers for the boy. He was happy about that.
