I think so, Cindy. Because it corresponds with Talk Like a Pirate Day.
DH is ironing his shirts before he leaves for Chicago this afternoon. He's such a better ironer than I am. He learned by doing an internet search for "how to iron" and found a wonderful site created by a cross dressing Englishman. He apparently gives wonderful instructions because Christopher can iron circles around me.

this is the site. I love the title, "Transforming men into beautiful women." They're not just crossdressing, they're trannies. And very cute.
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY ERIKA!!!!!!!

It's a replacement for our dear departed SmartWater!
Happy birthday, erika!
The RenFaire was overrun with pirates yesterday. And painfully identical pirates, at that. At the end of the day, my guildmaster muttered to me, "I swear to God, if I see one more Captain Jack Sparrow I'm going to beat his fucking head in."
Also, last night, as we were trudging back to the car, we passed a noble who was camping out overnight heading back into the Faire with his two tiny hoop-skirted and velvet-clad daughters, and as we passed each other the smaller one looked up at Emmett and went all glowy and amazed and smitten and uttered the softest, sweetest "Hiiiiiii..." ever. His teenage years are going to be something to contend with, it is already clear.
Thanks for all the well wishes and ma and prayers. He is in good spirits from what I've been told. Joe and I are probably going to go see him sometime today.
Oh, shit, I totally forgot to say, I've been vibing for your friend since you posted, Aimée.
Aimée, good ~ma to your friend. May he return to full health.
I cannot eat my last crepe (pumpkin butter). I know you all weep for me.
Ok, Plei, what is black treacle since it isn't blackstrap molasses?
WHY do they keep nominating Mariska Hargitay for Emmys? WHY?!?!?
