Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Today's accomplishments: testing Skype so next week's interview has less chance of tech problems, walking a mile while it was only in the 80s, hauling out Mom's sewing machine and figuring out bobbin loading and threading the needle, finding my good sewing scissors, and setting up a place for my home office printer. I was thinking of walking to the farmers market, but it's now 97, so that's not gonna happen.
May your spoons regrow soon, Zenkitty. That was a lot to accomplish in the heat.
Sounds like a great trip, Brenda and shrift!
ION, I was overly optimistic when I said I was 98% sure I had found and fixed the cause of the water leaking into my car. It rained last night and there was a bunch of water in my car again. My boss and I now theorize that one of the water drainage channels for the sunroof is plugged up, causing water to leak down the A-pillar (the pillar that separates the windshield from the door) and go behind the dash and onto the floor.
The car's warranty expires in less than three weeks, so I made an appointment at a Ford dealership to look at it. In the meantime, Miriam has room in her new garage so I'm gonna keep my car there until the rains go away.
Last Sunday I drove the car for the first time in two weeks--that's when I discovered the problem. The car already had a funky smell (mildew?) from water being in it for a while and it's much worse now. Any suggestions on getting rid of that smell?
I've decided to sell the car as I haven't been using it much so I can't justify the car payments and insurance. So I gotta get the leak and smell taken care of first.
I've seen people use the buckets that suck up moisture in cars, but I don't know how well they work.
White vinegar is the answer for mildew, I believe.

Oh bless, someone on Tumblr has linked me to their blog post on the myths about the Hobby Lobby ruling.
Jilli, I read xoJane randomly, and I noticed the nice exchange between you and MadeiraDarling on the makeup post. So sweet!
Timelies all!
Came home and the tv in the computer room was on. I can only assume one of the cats stepped on the remote.

It was very sweet, and it made me giggle.
