Does that allow you to do different things/have more control of the output, or did you just figure it was cheaper in the long run than using a service or something?

Mostly, it's about me getting to choose exactly what kind of paper to use.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

That is so cool, Tom

I am officially losing my mind today with the kids and the crazy of the conference. Have moved from oolong tea to red wine, which I hope will improve my mood if not my ability to cope with said crazy.

Taxes filed. I'm declaring the pad see ew passable. I need to do some more experimentation with the sauce.

The bathroom is clean(er), my bedding is laundered, and I just remembered to turn on the dishwasher after intending to do it and walking away thinking I had.

Engaging sloth mode now.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Oh, that reminds me, I have to put the bedclothes in the dryer before I can go to bed.

I love the term 'bedclothes.'

I almost never say 'sheets.' I wonder if I get that from my southern relatives.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I only know the term "bedclothes" from Puff the Magic Dragon. I think that's where, anyway - something animated.

Well, I was referring to the sheets and the quilts and the pillowcases, so, "bedclothes".

It's odd that we have bedclothes, but we don't clothe the bed--we make it. English, man.

Our wings are not tired.

Hmm, I would say bedding, but bedclothes wouldn't come naturally at all. Although it sounds nice.

That is the plan.

Excellent. I have a Scola as my background on my laptop that I would love to see on the wall.
