Also mildly annoyed that department stores seem to have stopped carrying cheap folding plastic lounge chairs.
Around here, you can get those at drug stores in summer.
Maybe I've always been here.

Art Crawl!!!
Sometimes grocery stores carry them -- but closer to Memorial Day.
Glad that ND & pals had a fun party.
Happy Birthday Sheryl!!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Thanks for the birthday wishes!
We are about to head to the Metro to catch a train to the Nationals game. Whee!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Ooh. Good plan.

Maybe like a Wal-Mart, Matt? I'm going to run out to Target later today, so I'll take a look-see as to what they've got on hand around here.
I tried the local one last night, and while they have folding upright chairs and heavy, solid form chaise lounges, they didn't have any of the folding sort that will adjust to fully horizontal. So far the closest thing I've seen is a $40 hammock w/ frame from Target, but I'm hoping I can find something that won't require hours of assembly. We'll see when I head out in a few.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I'm not a baseball fan, but that sounds like a good way to spend a birthday.
I am hoping for pictures from ND's birthday.
my cat is running aroundthe house meowing at us. for no reason that I can tell. he probbably wants to go out and play percy of the jungle. however, running into the bathroom does not give me a clear idea of what he truely wants.

Our wings are not tired.
Happy Birthday Sheryl
May the light always find you on a dreary day.
When you need to be home, may you find your way.
May you always have courage to take a chance
And never find frogs in your underpants.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Happy Birthday, Sheryl!

Hammocks are nice. Every year I say I'm going to get one for the backyard....

Happy birthday, Sheryl!
I'm downloading mp3's of educational songs from the 1950's, including the original "Why Does The Sun Shine?"
I just wish the guy who encoded them had put each album in a zip file, or at least its own folder, so I wouldn't have to download them one at a time.
