I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

I'm getting the pig!

Suzi, I vote for productivity. You'll feel all accomplished and shit. I think the gingerbread spice tea was a Celestial Seasonings brand so I'll look at the local grocery store for it. SuperTarget does not have it - at least not the one up on HR pkwy.

I hope msbelle and Mac are safe and not dealing with a tornado.

DH has been cleaning up the basement (AKA TheManCave) and I've been busy sweeping, mopping, suck-monstering, de-cluttering drawers and cabinets and dusting.

With the cleaning going on downstairs and upstairs, the cats are pissed. Lack of safe hiding spaces! Ack!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Don't get swept away, msbelle!

Yay for your kid-free weekend, Jess!

Go, the rest of you productive people!

I have not done shit. But I do have a question for our sewing-istas. Over the summer, I put a sheet over my sofa, for coolness and anti-cat-claw-ruining. So I don't really want the sheet to be the permanent solution. And it's an odd shape (I think it's supposed to be a sectional), so I don't think I could even buy a slipcover. So, the upshot is, can I really just buy say three yards of this for three dollars, and have that work?? (It seems too cheap and easy...)

Productiveness hasn't happened yet. I should see if I can jump start that.

Booze question. Last night I ran the bar out of Canadian Club. If I go back to the same place to watch the game tonight, should I expect to order something else?

I would guess so? But maybe they do make deliveries/restock/etc on Saturdays.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

you could buy fabric and tuck it in as a cover, but BLACK!??! with Homer?!?! That is like the most labor intensive to keep looking good.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

I sew but I'm not so good on all the different types of fabric without going to a fabric store. I can't remember what poplin feels like. Surely it's cheaper to throw some fabric on than to get a slipcover, I'm sure. [link]

Napping at 6pm = staying up 'til 7am. I was up recording and editing a podcast commercial for my album. Not entirely satisfied with it but if I don't just stop, I'll never get it done and turned in. I've already procrastinated for months.

Tonight is South Pasadena's ArtWalk with galleries, music and food trucks. I'll be hanging out there unless I'm passed out from my stupid sleep being turned around.

Congrats to those who got to sleep in today, esp those who don't get to do it often.

Oh yeah, interesting point.

Kitchen is clean. Woot.

My room should be next. We will see.

I wonder how chartreuse this one actually is: [link] Maybe for $3 I don't really care! The current sheet situation looks like crap anyway.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Amy has suggested red shoes with a black dress. This goes against everything stand for. Red-soled shoes with a black dress is fine, but my little brain can't wrap itself around the idea of me wearing all red shoes with a black outfit.
