Nah, but singing soprano and doing crosswords come immediately to mind.
I mentioned to (my) Sara that I knew someone who loved crossword puzzles and went to tournaments, and she was fascinated. (She likes to help me when I'm doing them.)
Kaylee: Captain seem a little funny to you at breakfast this morning? Wash: Come on, Kaylee. We all know I'm the funny one.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I always thought the altos were cooler when I sang soprano. I actually asked to switch and my chorus teacher was like WTF?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I am loving hearing about the cigar box guitars, Liese, especially after helping Isaac to make a dorky cardboard guitar for his class project. I could definitely see getting into it--it's crafty AND it makes music! Win-win!

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Altos FTW!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh, I see what you mean! Yeah. I don't like the people. But that applies to all people, because I am a cranky old sod at 37.
I saw Isaac's guitar, Burrell, it came out so great! He could totally make a cigar box guitar.
It's funny, because I can see myself just getting more and more into it until it's kinda ridiculous. This is probably not how you're going to be making your living, self, you do not need to spend all your money on getting set up!
However, I seem to have no shortage of people who want them (not realizing, perhaps, how easy it would be to make them themselves) as I have four current projects lined up, including the one on the bench now. So in the meanwhile, yay, fun!
I just finished making my hide glue heating rig. I'm testing it now to make sure it gets to the right temperature.
So next up, animal fumes!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I just got an email from my boss that she wants to talk to me tomorrow. No indication what it's about. And now she's left for the day so I can't ask her.
Great. Now I'm going to fret for 24 hours.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Considering that the day started with me dropping a cup of kibble all over the kitchen floor, and having to clean up cat hork, it hasn't been too bad today.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So, I'm at training. Talking a lot, and drawing everyone.The one picture I completed, I gave it to my unknowing subject. When I came back from break, he asked me to sign it. Which is entirely not what I was expecting, but cool.
Okay, back to interrupting.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Altos are always better.
Good luck, Zen. I hope it's not too fretty.
No written offer for husband's job yet. I am fretting a bit myself.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Represent.
No sense fussing about it today, Zen. I know, I would too. But nothing you can do about it for the moment.
Okay, so I finished making my hot hide glue pot! I need to actually replace my crockpot, since I did the mods to it before I actually bought a new one, but hey, priorities!
Now to finish sanding and prepping the piece.
Okay, apparently I was so excited, I finished sanding and prepping the piece before I hit post.
Now to fiddle anxiously for the rest of the time while the glue soaks and then heats.
