No, I didn’t force feed models cake.  Athough…not a bad idea…
 
It’s been one long weekend.  I did a lot of sewing and went to see Mom.  I know.  That totally didn’t sound busy at all, but it was emotionally draining.  I suspect I’ll get into that before the end of the week, but let’s start [...]

I have no idea why the Sesame Street theme song is in my head.  It’s probably because it rained yesterday and the internet at work was spotty at best.  I spent much of yesterday removing the computer STD and putting on some passwords.  Hopefully, that will help keep my work computer more sunny as well.

Ok, so it’s the day after the big Christmas holiday.  And my nerdy husband (and not in the hip way) has left the Gilmore Girls on the tv.  There’s this scene playing where the heroine is walking past a beautiful choir of bell ringers reveling in the joy of the season when abruptly the bell [...]
