'Shindig'
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.
(What crack are they smoking that they think people have access to cranberries in June?)
I see them year-round around here, if not reliably every week. (I also tend to have some in the freezer, but I have no idea if that would break the recipe-testing rules.)
Well, I've got my HP costume done, but I went lazy and relatively sloppy with it. I had cut out letters to pin to the front of the t-shirt, but the paper and pinning did not go well and I was tearing out my hair. So, instead, I sacrificed a red t-shirt (that's too big for me now!) that I cut a rectangle out of, basted the edges to make them even, then just took a black Sharpie and wrote out "Firebolt", then basted it to the front of my black t-shirt. I also stitched two headbands together in the back to create a little pocket to slip the raffia bundle through. Cool thing I didn't notice until I started to sew it was that the headbands have a little "F" in the front! I also cut another piece of the red t-shirt and wrapped it around the bottom of the raffia bundle so it doesn't rub on my neck when I'm wearing it.
I'm heading over there at 9:00 with my camera in hand, but don't start work until 10:00.
I am very exciting. I am ordering pizza from a new place.
Other than that, I may just try and hermit this weekend. I didn't have one last weekend, so I'm going to have to take my one day this time round and work it. Book on the beach, perhaps?
What if I have a special signed copy of the book JUST FOR YOU? Do I have to leave it on your doorstep?
You leave it in the mailbox, with the cigarettes, right?
...oh, wait. That's not ita.
This weekend no can do--but maybe next? I have an exhaustive schedule of rocking myself and crying and I don't think I can fit much else in.
Which isn't to seem ungrateful--I was more aiming for pathetic.
I wish I could abandon cupcakes on the doorstep.
paperdol, when you think you might maybe wanna visit in these woods?
Gee, I haven't seen a 7% or more raise in...oh, over a quarter of a century. (I've been working for over 30 years.) Clearly I'm in the wrong business. Saving lives. Way undervalued.
Sorry to barge in. New here. Been lurking awhile but only recently registered.
Howdy, Bobbi.
