Today I went to the dispensary to pick up more of my insomnia-fighting tinctures, mended/cleaned/ironed my black silk frock coat, cleaned and refilled a few of my fountain pens, and made cheese biscuits. But the most important thing about today? I met my Dad's lady friend, and she is wonderful. I was predisposed to like her anyway, because she's made my Dad so happy, but she's a really good person. (Our version of good person, that is: kind, smart, and very snarky.)

Kat, do you use a special foot to put the binding on the hospital gowns? Or do you do it in2 passes?
The binding is just double fold bias tape. The snap tape I put on using a zipper foot with two passes, because I figured I could get closer to the snaps that way.
I have a special hemming foot, but each time I use it, I do a terrible job.
Yay Jilli's dad's lady friend.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
One of the things I did today was to buy a lifetime Crowded House Fan Club membership. I am both proud and shamed by this fact.
Why would you be shamed? Love what you love!

I just finished Arrested Development on Netflix. What should I start watching next?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
well, mac was able to finally recover himself and we both did exercises during the commercial breaks of biggest loser.
I made 18 listings on ebay today, a 21 gallon bin and a paper grocery sack full of stuff is what I listed. So far only 1 thing has a bid, but from the number of people watching the other items, I think there is a good shot of most of it selling. whoot!

I can't remember -- do you watch Community?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I can't remember -- do you watch Community?
That was my suggestion.

Better Off Ted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I agree with Dana--if you've already watched Community (and liked it), Better Off Ted is the natural next step.
