Glad to hear it, Drew.
Natter 73: Chuck Norris only wishes he could Natter
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.
Plei, for the record, your mother it cracking me up with her facepalmy fb stuff. Cause I'm dealing with one of my most normal aunts who "doesn't do fb" yet manages to read posts on her late husband's account and then query my mother (who is not on fb) after being unable to navigate fb about things I haven't told my parents because I haven't called them yet. It's...you matched and beat wits with a rocket scientist and are one of the more private people I know and...damnit, just ask me. I expect this drama from the eldest aunt (who, thank god isn't on fb) but sensible, thoughtful Sue??
I'm watching my Kolchak: The Nightstalker disks. So surprisingly creepy and so 70s. Film cameras, teletype machines with paper.
edit: Good lord, this show is 40 years old.
I need to remember my budget and not try to save this dresser that's for sale online. The seller suggests that it's a "great candidate for chalk paint." It's a late Empire piece with matched veneer. In a just world, people would be seized with sudden paralysis every time they tried to paint matched veneer in good condition.
yay Plei and Jess
good news Drew
I think I've mentioned this before but I've been emailing with one of our designers in India whose first name is Karlmarx. Too funny.

Give it to me. Let me save it.
Oh that is soon, -t! Exciting!
I'm not sure I should be as amused as I am at how horrified FB is at my hands.
Zen, someone else may have gotten to it first. This is on a local Facebook "yard sale" group. I did put in a plea against painting. I could see painting the top, which has a badly done repair, but the veneer on the sides and the drawer fronts is lovely, at least in the photos.
The only thing I really feel the lack of in this small townhouse is a workspace. I don't really care that the kitchen is the size of a pocket handkerchief, I care that I don't have space to repair and refinish furniture in.
