Pool Info and Weekly Update

This week,
ng_moonmoth is hosting a pool for the Polychrome Heroics sale and details can be found here. If you are interested in buying any poetry, even if it's just a handful of dollars, let them know and goodies can be bought! Plus, by joining the pool, your dollars go twice as far because it gets all of us the quarter price rate.
In regular weekly news, I got 15 stickers and bought myself something from my wishlist! Originally I was looing for a cable knit sweater, but instead I found a store with a "everything is $10" sale, and bought four pairs of colourful, patterned, lined tights. They are so pretty and colourful pants were on my wishlist too! So far, I've made my daily goals every day, though not yet for today.
I haven't made any progress on my EA plan for this month yet, but I have made good progress on my paint by number. I'm hoping to have it done by the end of the month. I have a few knitting projects on the go at the moment, of varying degrees of difficulty and scope. I still have a lot of work to do with entries, and I *need* to log on to my gmail from a computer; I might possibly have lost a bunch of my emails. *worried face*
Also, I've had a few minor incidents at work with the quality department. A few of the girls have energy that rubs me the wrong way, and quality in general usually makes more work for the production department, without caring if it is actually feasible. This puts me in a dfensive mood and my tone goes all wonky, logic desserts me, and I forget to be level headed. While talking with a friend about it, we stumbled on a term that both made me laugh and was startlingly accurate: poofy static electric porcupine. I think I might actually be throwing prickly energy at them (because I feel like I'm being accused/attacked) and they don't like it. I'm currently working on ways of grounding and controlling my self.

Many subscribe to the theory that once a process is documented, even if it’s thoroughly flawed, there’s no other feasible way of doing it. Which can certainly make things difficult for Production folk.
I like your term for your energy - I can actually visualize that porcupine. =]

A friend gave me that term, originally as a joke I think, but it fit so well I decided to keep it.
