the thrill of victory

I finished my blinds! I finished my blinds!
Yes, they are all slightly or not-so-slightly too wide for the windows, and one of them is four inches too short (I might have figured out how to fix that while sewing the second one, but it involves ripping out a seam and sewing two new ones, so it's going to have to wait while I recharge my enthusiasm) but they hang and they block out the brightest of the sunlight instead of absorbing it the way the navy blue curtains used to, and dammit I call that satisfaction.

Now I will resume plotting my elaborate configuration of fans to force a cross-breeze in my maze of an apartment.

No power in the 'verse can stop me.
