I want to compare scars with Em.

Anyway. So I forgot to mention -- the map in my photo album (yes, there are only three photos. Oops) is a hand-colored map of Cheshire, with the place names from the Domesday book (thus, Cestrescire), including the town where my mother's family came from originally. By originally, of course, I actually mean after 1066 but before, say, 1750; additionally, I'm pretty sure the actual descent-line got broken at some point in there, so genetically it's not the same family. But honestly, who cares? It's still got her name on it (kind of -- actually, in 1086 they spelled the town very differently).

Er, I ramble. I just thought it was wicked cool and am really excited it got here. Yay!

Sorry, I meant the tinier, less feminine Em.

But really, I've got the childhood scars. I'd already broken my head by the time I was 4. I have a huuuuuge dent.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

3) I would like to skip to 2 weeks from now when the guitar show is over and I'm not doing the work of an ad agency, an assistant, a day laborer and a shrink.

DH isn't here - but I have to ask... which guitar show

I figured. Especially since all I've got is a chicken pox scar and a couple sets of stretch marks (I grow in short bursts).

Right. Off to be a Viking.

you can't be a viking without a good scar.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Bog help me, I got this.

I'm doomed.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm staying at my friends G&J's house tonight. They have one of these: [link]

I think one will soon be mine, as well.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'm doomed.

And you're just now figuring this out?

Dallas. Huge thing, and they've added drums this year. It's actually fun when you're there, but the whole lead up for me is a bitch. I have to make passes, frame stuff, make fliers and other hand outs coordinate stuff, schedule speakers, hire volunteers and other staff and keep my boss from going insane. I was going to have to design t-shirts and then argue for hours about why they had the design I designed, but thank Bob the ad agency took that off my hands.

On the upside after the 10th, I'll be off for 2 or 3 days.
