Busy weekend

A new play
Friday was opening night for Johnna’s play, Sacred Geometry. This is definitely not a play for minors. There is full male nudity, so be advised. But, it’s entertaining, fun, funny, and strange. And there’s an act where the audience is broken into groups, and tours the entire place, inside and out, to see […]

Monday Madness

Diamonds or pearls? Both.
Paperback or hardcover books? Leather, hardcover, paperback, in that order.
Carpet or hardwood floors? Hardwood floors with the occasional area rug definitely preferred.
Dogs or cats? Always have a cat. Only have a dog when I have the room and time.
Fluffy or firm pillow? Firm.
Fine point or medium point pens? Fine point.
Clocks a little […]

Book clubs

Friday, October 21, 2005

I’m referring to the reading type of book club, where members all read the same book, then gather to discuss it.

Do you, or have you, ever belonged to a book club? Not yet.
Why, or why not? Found out a couple of years ago that a good friend belonged to a book club, and she quite […]

New purse!

Thursday, October 20, 2005

My mother decided to give me a little present when we were up visiting her a couple weeks ago, and presented me with a check. The only catch is I’m supposed to buy clothes with it. I can do that. Yesterday I wandered over to Mervyn’s where they’re having this big sale, and the only […]

Pattern Marking

Wednesday, October 19, 2005

Do you mark or highlight your patterns or can you follow them without any markings? Do you make copies to mark up, or do you mark originals?
I don’t mark my patterns at all. I tried it when I first started counted cross stitch, and ended up getting ink on anything and everything, including my fabric, […]

Progress

Monday, October 17, 2005

I’ve been knitting merrily away on Kiri. She’s progressing quite nicely. I already have nearly three repeats done. In the photo she rather looks like a green blob, but really, the lace pattern is there. Honest! And yes, I pulled out the lifeline. Don’t think I’ll be putting it back in, either, though that decision […]

Fingerless mittens

Monday, October 17, 2005

It’s the middle of the night and I’m wide awake, having fun watching the lightning light up the sky off in the distance. Since I’m awake, I figure that this is my time to do a little surfing. So I’ve been wandering around, and slipped over to Stitch-n-Snitch’s blog, where she has a fabulous photo […]

Monday Madness

Which one?

Lemonade or iced tea? Depends on the day. Please, don’t serve me sweet tea, though. I prefer my tea without any sugar in it at all.
DVD or VHS? DVD
Gold or silver? Either, just not combined.
Baseball or tennis? Baseball, though I don’t follow any teams.
Spring or autumn? No way I could possibly choose. They’re both […]

Laura needs…

Sunday, October 16, 2005

Ok. I’ve seen this meme in several blogs now, so I guess I must participate. Here’s what you do: Google “[your name] needs” and list the 10 best. Here goes. This is where having a common name like “Laura” is both good and bad. There are a million of us out there!

Dr. Laura needs your […]
