Related to Dreamwidth swag, damned_colonial explains how to get different colors and styles of t-shirt on Zazzle. Can be generalized to the rest of Zazzle, including other, non-clothing products.

On today's agenda: roller derby! Ellie and I are stopping at some woodworking store on the way. Her tools already equal or exceed the value of her car, but she still doesn't have everything she needs. (In addition to set-building/theater tech and fine furniture, she plans to move into the woods one day and build her own house, and take a whole bunch of her friends who want lots of big dogs/unrestricted nudity/etc. with her.)

At some point, Ellie is going to build me a new garment rack. I had a mass-produced plastic/metal one, but it broke under the weight of my clothes. The new one will be made of two-by-fours and an oak dowel.

So Ellie is doing better, mentally? :) As a mostly silent Internet observer, I was still worried.

Sort of? The class that was giving her the most trouble is done, although it resulted in a couple of all-nighters within the past week or so. And the semester is coming to an end in general. Hard to tell what improvement is due to treatment and what's due to the removal of major stressors. :\
