There's a Utrecht in Providence. I didn't realize it was a national chain.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Oh yes. When I was an undergrad the art majors used to pull together a group order so we could take advantage of the discounts for larger orders. (Particularly of canvas and paint.) That's how I heard of Utrecht. There's one that is across the street from the Art Institute of Chicago.
There is also Pearl in Chicago - but that's newer. Pearl is orginally out of NYC, I believe. I have a friend who calls Pearl "surl" - due to the lovely customer service they provide.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm really sick. Thought you should know.
Well, I'm rarely sick, so any sick is really sick, to me. Is "constant nose blowing and racking coughs that bring up yellow stuff and there's an odd sound in the lungs" *really* sick? Or just regular sick?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
billytea - here are some nice echidna coloring pages you can print out and color with Ryan. [link] Or, you know, you could color them for him so you can teach him about them more accurately. Really.
ION that website is awesome with the variety of coloring pages it has to offer.

I am happy that we live in a world where children (or adults) can color echidnas.

As long as no echidnas are injured in the process!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Fever, Zen? How high? Body aches? Dizziness? I think if any of those are present it's worth at least a call to your PCP.
It may just be a matter of fluids, ibu, rest, and megadoses of C if it's viral. But on the chance it's bacterial, you should get it checked out.

Compassionately intolerant
bonny - I was shopping on Utrecht's website and in addition to the design/artist quality markers they also have "children's" drawing supplies including a set of 20 Reeves markers for under $14.00.
oooh. Thanks sumi. I'll have to give those a try. I did find Sharpies at Costco, but the tips are too large. Really bad for control.
I have to say, Toddson sent me the cutest birthday card. It features a dog (pretty sure it's a Beagle) lying on his back, under the stars, on top of a dog house. The sentiment is divine:
May cosmic bliss come down and scratch you on the belly.
I wish this for you all.
Thanks Todd!

aha! you're welcome! I saw it and thought of you. And Bartleby, of course.
Bonny, you might also try a craft store for coloring supplies.
