My little sister and I are sewing a doll, by hand. Her name is Miranda, and she is like no other doll seen before. We originally intended her to be small, but over time she has become worthy of the opposite adjective. (Isn't that wonderfully periphrastic?) ;) Miranda has grown to be almost as tall as my sister, who is 10 years old, and she resembles a pink, slightly fuzzy egg. She may look better after I sew on her legs and her other arm; we'll see. Adding hair would help matters as well.

I'm thinking that I might bring Miranda back to college with me in six weeks, and use her as an extra pillow. She is awfully cushy. I also foresee some wonderful opportunities for practical jokes. At the very least, I do not doubt that the fact she exists and that I spent an entire week creating her will cause my roomies great amusement.

Speaking of college, I'm starting to get scared. The weeks are whooshing by faster and faster. I want to make the most of my precious rest, and yet keep it restful. :)

Movie reviews:
Spiderman 2 - If you haven't seen it, do. I rarely see movies more than once in the theater, but this is one of the few I am eager to see again. Everything is thought out well, and I love all the characters. Visual effects are very believable. Also, wonder of wonders, it does not have any sex nonsense. Spidey 2 is like a breath of fresh air to those of us who want to watch a movie without the discomforts of gaping plot flaws and people falling all over each other after only two minutes of acquaintance.  ¶ 10:56 AM
