Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I was coming here to whine, but...
I think my head exploded from happiness for msbelle and mac. I was wondering all last night.
Allyson, awesome comparison.

OK, so I'm pretty sure I have a cold. It's a weird one. Just a vice on the back of my skull and deathly exhaustion so far. My shower was exhausting. The idea of getting dressed is exhausting. Xmas shopping and laundry? heehee hahah...skzzzznxxx. I suck. I slept 12 hours last night.
Now I have to go dry my hair. Mph.
Sophia! I would love to try to meet up! As for fabric/yarn/button shops, I think M&J is the go-to notions store, and it's walking distance from Rockefeller Center. [link] I don't know anything specific about fabric, other than the garment district in general, which is the West 40s ish.
OK, I have now done a bunch of Christmas shopping online, but now I'm reallly starving!
Yay for Msbelle and Mac!
The big question for today is do I work on a story and go see the new Bond movie, or make a fruitcake?
M&J is really 2 stops from Rock Center - better to subway it.
Pizza was Papa Johns, not New York local place. (pronounces it Peentza). First Pizza.
And his verdict?
yummy in his tummy.
This is so exciting! Both Bob and I have tears.
Ya'll are all so cute. No crying!
I'm trying, and failing, to wrap my mind around wht it would be like to have so many huge new experiences, and if you'd really think of them as that.... planes, elevators, escalators, MAGIC PIZZA that arrives AT YOUR DOOR when you just click on the weird flat thing.
Oooh. Elevators!
I spent some time helping a friend who advocated for Central American refugees around Brownsville TX long ago. Despite passable Spanish, I could not explain why I was asking a woman straight off the bus, to get into a tiny room...and then how the room could magically end up somewhere else. It was a humbling experience to see her non-comprehension. But once I explained how much easier it was than using the stairs (by pointing out the window to indicate how much higher we were, and then showing her the stairwell) she was right on board.
May mac's experiences with new machines be nuthin' but fun.
