Ack, Betsy. We know you wouldn't do that on purpose. Unless it was the really hideously ugly painted glassware I saw in a store yesterday. I'll help you smash that stuff if you want.

The grandmotherly nurse practioner with the prescription pad in the behavior health part of my HMO seemed appalled that no one had offered me things to make me sleep along with antidepressants. Not sleeping was one reason I had given up on them before.

Garden centers are probably your best bet for instant gnomes, vw. Sometimes places like Target carry them too.

Sorry, too busy drooling over the thought of dinner at Blue Ginger to post coherently.

So. Excited.

Something like Michaels, or Walmart, would be my first guess. I doubt you'd find them at Bed Bath or that ilk. I haven't seen them, anyway.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Or Gnome World. Or Gnome Depot. Or Bubba's Garden Gnomes and Croissants.

Mostly lurking...

Garden centers are probably your best bet for instant gnomes, vw. Sometimes places like Target carry them too.

I just called around a bit and found a place a couple miles away that carries them. It's a garden center that actually used to be in walking distance, but they moved at the end of last summer. Oh, well...not that I'd want to carry a gnome home anyway. Home Depot doesn't carry them, which surprised me a bit. Actually, the guy laughed when I asked.

Did I say why I want a gnome? My brother thinks it would be a great thing to give my mom. Oh, yeah, I did say that. I'm checking with my dad before I actually purchase the damn thing. They're expensive!

Perhaps you can find a drunken college student to steal one for you?

Back in my college days that's how we gained and lost our statue of Pan.

Thrive to spite them

A warning about Trazadone -- it can mess with your vision. I think that's a rarer side effect, but after I started taking it my peripheral vision in my right eye started to get dark and blurry. It was pretty gradual before I realized what was going on.

The eye dr said that if I stopped taking it my sight wouldn't get worse but he couldn't say if it would go back to normal. So far it hasn't. It's a pretty minor thing but it's something to watch out for.

Ooh, gnome-filled croissants. Tasty.
