HA!

ita, yes, maybe this weekend. Sat evening for us or Sun afternoon.

I let out the hems of 3 pairs of mac's pants (I had done 2 earlier but they were 5s and that is 2 sizes ago, so no saving them) so they will be less high-watery and I can get 3-4 more weeks wear out of them (the knees are all very worn).

The rest gives me just enough for a week of wear of his real size if I wash every week (with a couple weekend pair extra). So I'll keep a hawkeye on the ebay auctions ending in a day in a half that would get me 3-4 more school uniform pants and 3-4 more jeans.

AND THEN MAYBE HE CAN STOP WITH THE NONSTOP GROWTH FOR LIKE A MONTH OR TWO.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, from my apartment, the moon is kind of east-southeast. (Crossword clue: Boston-Worcester dir.) (Is that even right? Not quite, I bet.)

Edit: Der, that's totally opposite, except not even! Worcester being west of Boston. But still somewhat south! This is why I don't construct crosswords.

OK, I'm not the only one all fer-wonked. On the local news, they're looking for a crime suspect with "either a Jamaican or Haitian accent." Seriously, witnesses?? You can't tell those apart?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Doh. If I'd known it was visible from my window I would've watched. Well, part of it at least. It's too cold to sit next to the window for too long. And way to cold to stand around outside (like I did for 25 minutes this morning waiting for a bus).

Skipping to the end because I still have 45 minutes to wish Jon B a happy birthday!

The eclipse sure is pretty. But that dragon needs to leave the moon alone and go away.

Thanks Kat, I may end up getting some stuff there tomorrow, but right now the best deals for me are on ebay for as short a time as he is in a size of pants.

Hey Brenda, did you like Horton Foote enough to want to see more? The One Acts start tomorrow night and they are papering the house.
