Forrest ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I hope he pulls through with flying colors, Kat.
Unutterableswearword! I was waiting 'til today to call to reserve free tickets to the Huntington Garden. They're already sold out. The ticket agent says they sell out in 5 min. every month that they go up for "sale".
Go Master Msbelle! I know it might be hard, but necessary.
Yeah, spidra, they go fast. If you reserve online for the afternoon entrance it's better. But they still go fast.
I just remembered I get to go as part of CA Rare Fruit Growers' Festival of Fruit so I am less bummed now.
free tickets to the Huntington Garden
I remember quite fondly the month I spent at the Huntington as part of the process of digitzing their card catalog. Hour lunch breaks every day that involved walking through the rose garden to the lunch tables, talking to the retired USO dancer who always wore purple and told tales of WWII and her research into women's history, and most especially the day when my machine broke down and the tech wouldn't be there till the next day, so I had the whole day free to wander the galleries. I found myself in the Medieval/Renaissance wing, discussing the iconography of the various icons with one of the bored guards, then explaining the techniques of the weavings of the tapestry (yay, SCA experience). I turned around to find a school group listening to my "lecture". And taking notes. Apparently the temp "Huntington Staff" badge leant me street cred.
I HAVE BEEN AWAKE FOR 24 HOURS WHATISWRONGWITHME?
GO TO SLEEP JULIEBIRD YOUR BODY NEEDS REST TO SURVIVE!
Sending good thoughts to your father, Kat, and strength to your mother.
Spidra, I never manage to get a hold of the free tix to HG, I just have to pay up.
Sending good thoughts to your father, Kat, and strength to your mother.
What Burrell said.
Also, why am I awake at 2:51 with enough energy that I want to clean all the things! Grrrr.
Skipping-sigh-yet-again because, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Aims and miracleman's anniversary.
