My engineering students, having finished their downhill racers, are now jumping rope. Of all the days not to bring my camera...
Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
So. Let's say I have some nice art prints I want to get framed in a nice way, but I don't want to spend a fortune. What are my options?
Michael's. Look for coupons for 50% off in their weekly flyers.

I am one of the few and proud who love to move. love to pack, love to unpack.
I join you in this...except for the schlepping part and the corralling friends to schelp part.
Yay fresh starts, boo back strain.
I like moving because I have an unwholesome afinity for sorting like things together. I blame Sesame Street.

Wow, new shiny thread. 150 posts is much less intimidating for the newbie than the 10k or so in the last one. Happy Birthday Beverly. From the looks of it most of you have been way more productive than myself in the past two days. What is this "laundry" you speak of? I have this pile of grading that doesn't seem to get any smaller no matter how many papers I grade and I would much rather hook up the drum set and play "Rock Band". I am not quite sure how it happened but I am addicted to that game. There is something about playing the drums along with "Wanted Dead or Alive" that makes me a happy Bonbon fan. But, the natter has given me more important things to distract me than the temptation of the PS3 in the other room.
"Johnny Depp & Christian Bale = a lot of hot."
Yes, in anything, anywhere. Together in the same movie....is there such a thing as hotness overload? And I am with Juliana on the mover as there is just something lovely about a gorgeous man with a British accent saying 'engage'. Helps that I am on a Star Trek kick. Been watching Voyager from the beginning again. I am in the third season now.

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

Cool. I hadn't heard of this chain, but it looks like they have stores in nearby suburbs.

Michael's
Flail! Michael's is the STUFF!
I've never done a wedding that wasn't significantly supported by this chain. And they always seem to have exactly what I need on sale!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Michael's is responsible for over half of any set I've ever decorated. (The other half came from thrift stores and my own home. Theater people aren't packrats without reason - we know we're going to have to use that ugly mustard-yellow dish set in one production or another.)

I can't be inside a Michael's too long. Or Bath & Body Works. Or Yankee Candle Company. Too smelly. Eyes water. Can't breathe.

I am one of the few and proud who love to move. love to pack, love to unpack.
of course, now with mac, the thought of doing so exhausts me, so we will probably stay put for a good long while.
You and mac can come help me!
I went through the craft stuff drawer yesterday and got rid of any stickers not immediately needed (immediate and need being defined as needed today at work) as well as unwritten in journals and other stuff. Liberation!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was annoyed with my framing experience at Michael's, but part of it was my own ignorance -- so make sure to ask enough questions to know what you're really getting. (I didn't know how wide the "standard" matting was, so figured it would look like it looked when they held the pieces together to show me.)
