Leathery-maroon on top, yes. The underside is more a dark gray with a tinge of green. I need to find a better setting, with better lighting, to photograph it properly.
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.

That is totally wonderful. You should be able to get shadowbox materials at any Michaels or AC Moore.

Dcp, it's awesome. You could also use a box like you would for a signed baseball.

Very cool looking, dcp!!
Oy--ONE DAY not even without internet, but without MUCH internet (I had my phone, but was calling with it, or tethering to my work computer, etc, and it's slow) and I was going up the walls. SO glad to have it back, but dang, that's pathetic of me.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
On the train to Holyhead, eventually ending up in Dublin. Bought wi-fi access, because I'm a sad Internet junkie.

When I was in London a few years ago, I found myself going to Internet Cafes just so that I could get online as part of my daily routine, so I sure won't criticize.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I am much happier now that I turned the email checking feature off of my phone. Before I was getting beeps every few minutes and it was really annoying. But I don't do well with no internet. My BFF and I spent a day trying to remember things instead of looking them up online. It took us all day to come up with the name Donald O'Conner for the other guy SInging in the Rain. It was fun, but I enjoy finding things on the internet.
I also have cramps FROM THE DEVIL. I have taken far more than the recommended amount of ibuprofen and I still feel like my uterus is being attacked by a grapefruit fork. And also like there is something inside me that wants to come out. I have to be at work today, too, because there is so much to do, but I can barely sit still. These are the days I like to spend in bed, mildly tipsy, pretending I am a Victorian woman with laudanum. Maybe if I had some laudanum if would feel better

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am confident you would feel better with some laudanum. Sorry about the cramps.
