hee, I love us.

I ated too much Thai food.

I had the babysitter over tonight and just went out and wandered stores by myself.

Ok, look how cute this shirt is: [link] roll over the pic to see close-up - GINGHAM! What you can see is that the inside of the collar is a floral print like this: [link]

I got one of each.

So msbelle.

I just got my package from Ann Taylor Loft. So...now I have two black on black eyelet embroidery skirts. Even for me, that's ridiculous. Will I get organised enough to return it? I can only hope.

I did get all the answers on that quiz right. Weird.

Speakng of packages-- I ordered an ironing board cover, and apparently I have to be home to sign for t. Like, I cannot sign the info notice. I do not know what s up with Amazon/UPS. It is less than $10.

I did, too! That was fun.

I have to find somewhere to get a replacement lint trap for our very old dryer. It's all ripped and deformed, and it's not exactly keeping the lint from getting all over. This is one of the things I hope the internets will magically provide.

I'm sorry, you expect Jilli to be the voice of reason?

It's in her name!

As a clever misdirection! If I really was a voice of reason, someone would finally let me have an arc welder.

However, I will say you don't want a hedgehog. They're cute, but messy and sticky.

Should I admit that I actually forgot it was in her username?

I am now imagining the movie Quills, with a cast of hedgehogs.

18th century hedgehogs, who write with quill pens.

If I really was a voice of reason, someone would finally let me have an arc welder.

We have one in our basement. You pick it up, it's yours.

Also, Jilli, I have to share what a friend's daughter (age 7, I think) said the other day (it is relevant to your interests): "Dad, what's it called when people only wear black all the time?" Friend replied, "Well, that could be any number of groups of people." Daughter responded, "Oh I know, I think they are called 'golf'."
