Yay msbelle on yardwork and SUPERYAY sarameg on spindles! You rock. I def think you should coat before paint, but I really think you should consider a white semi-translucent stain. It just seems such a shame to lose that grain. I know it`s a lot of wood, but I have a white stained oak shelf set that lives happily with my cherry dark stained tables, so I think it`s possible for it not to be overwhelming.
Tomorrow is my first real day of having quit my second job, so I am sleeping in like a mofo.
Man, just ascend already.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
And then working all day at my first job, but still, just to make the point, sleeping in!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Congrats to the Texas Rangers who're going to the World Series for the first time ever.
If it's a Rangers vs. Giants World Series, I win either way! Even though I don't even care!

It is 330 am and I am tipsy and yet just left the afterparty all alone, after no making out. Sad. I have a hotel room all to myself, and it is useless. I k ew this would happen. But I had hopes...

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Sorry, meara. That's just wrong.
Nice zombie manicure, Teppy.
sara, I'm so impressed with the spindles! Dedication and perserverance! And a gorgeous result.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Bummer on having a room and not a make out buddy for it, meara.
I hate my neighbors. They are only slightly loud but I just get so grated feeling when they stomp up stairs or have people banging on their doors.
I also have a crazy headache and I think my hip is messed up. Really, I might be cranky from that more than the external stuff. I am going to try and stretch and see if my insomniac ass can sleep.

I hope sleep helps with the headache and the hip, Cass.
I'm one of those weird morning people. Not necessarily as early 6 am on a Saturday when I'm not dog sitting, but now that I'm up it's nice to watch the morning gather itself in.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I woke up just before 7 for no apparent reason.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I woke up before 7:00, too!
Except that I had a reason; I'm at work right now.
