drain

I saw Time and Tide yesterday, which was a short documentary about Tuvalu and how it's land is threatened by the rising sea level. It was well made and very evocative of island life, and the directors were there to answer questions which is usually pretty interesting.

I was hungry all through the movie so afterwards I made it to the BNZ centre with this idea that I wanted a filled roll with seafood cocktail in it instead of meat, but no one had them, so I bought Chinese food instead. This rather overweight woman was behind me in line and ordered the same size plate as me, but her three choices were egg fu yung, egg fried rice and mee goreng... which I mostly noticed because although I really wanted sweet and sour pork *and* orange beef, I chose something with vegetables in it on purpose.

Mmmm orange beef.

After that I dragged myself around Te Papa for a while but I was feeling so drained and crappy I ended up coming home after an hour or so for a nap. Naps are nice. I'm feeling pretty energy-less today as well, but that can be blamed on the very long sleep I had as well.

Last night I finished the hand quilting on Zephfi's fashion quilt, so this afternoon (after Animation for Kids) I'll get started on the binding. I thought I'd use the pink leopard print Hello Kitty fabric for the binding, because it's so bright and cheerful.
