Timelies all!
Happy Birthday ChiKat!
No real plans this weekend. That's ok, the next two weekends are conventions....
Jayne: What're you gonna tell the others? Mal: About what? Jayne: About why I'm dead. Mal: Hadn't thought about it. Jayne: Make something up. Don't tell 'em what I did.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I am knitting the back to a baby sweater for the 3rd time and I swear it still does not look right. I can't remember what size needles - did the front on, so it is a matching problem.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
(Do people still say that? I hope not, because I like being WAY behind the times.)
I don't think people say "dag" anymore either, so we're in good company, anyway.
Also, I would avoid the gagging cat next time.
I have no plans for the weekend. I'm considering going to a department store and letting them sell me some makeup, because I'm back on that again.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Can you measure the stitches per inch and compare, msbelle? I really need/want to get knitting again as I find it very soothing-- espcially things like dishcloths and scarves.
I read this really strange article about women living lives of the 50's, 40's and 30's. They seem crazy, but their houses are really nice. Maybe it is made up, since it is the Daily Mail. [link]

OK, I can kind of get 40s and 50s, but 30s?? Great Depression 1930s????

Everyone pulling together, simpler role models, yadda yadda yadda. I noted at least one of them uses the Internet.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Well, I'm not going to be driving the car. It's back in the shop and it'd take $2,800 to fix it. Which is way more than it's worth.
Actually, according to the current online blue book, it's just exactly what it's worth.
Bleah. I have such an epic lack of knowledge as to how to buy a used car.
Plans for the weekend:
Tonight: Drink a martini, maybe watch a movie.
Tomorrow: Take Matilda to circus class, take her home for a nap, try to write (I really want to go to the protest, but it conflicts with both the class and the nap, and it looks like there'll be protests all over the Bay Area almost daily for the next month at least)
Sunday: Take Matilda to church, get ferried around by grandparents, come home and GO TO A CONCERT WITH LEE.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Hec and JZ--my charming DH knows, well, everything about cars, new and used, and would be happy to share his expertise.
