I've been sewing like crazy for craft fairs for the past few weeks. Check out my pics to see the new scarf I made, it looks like a little fox or something. I don't know how I ever had time to have a regular job. I've been having such crazy dreams lately, and the most restless sleeps, I hope that goes away soon.

So, my first week of being mostly unemployed is almost over. It was awesome! Can I get paid to not work? I'm sure going to try! I still have two very part-time jobs, but mostly I'm going to try to get my business going, work the whole craft fair racket this month. And I'll have time to make xmas presents, I'll be knitting up a...

When I needed a daily driver in the past, I've always relied on a Volvo, they be dang good tanks! Nothin' stops 'em!
Right now, I'm restoring a '59 Ford F-100 short bed step side, veeeerrrrry slowly, and finishing up some electronic snafu repair on My '48 Willys Overland Panel Van.
BUT, I'm not a gearhead, just a wannabe!
Whuts the good news up north? Any good things happening up in the snop this weekend?

I went Xmas crazy yesterday. I bought White Christmas on dvd, that scene where Bing and Danny lip synch to Sisters slays me. And I covet the large ostrich feather fans that the ladies use in their number, even though they aren't cruelty free. Tomorrow is my last day of work, I got laid off, yay! Working is for suckers, I'm going to play. Maybe...

I know what you're saying. Every year around xmas I get hooked on Vince Guaraldi and thats all I play in the car until after christmas.

miss you! 
I just finished watching My Life With Morrissey. There were a few super funny parts in it, but mostly just scary/depressing. Maybe that's just because I'm home alone, and it's raining, and I'm cold and tired.... 
The best part of the dvd is the documentary Real Life with Morrissey, which says it's a look into the lives of Moz fans around the nation, but...

Hey,
Our SG time is nearing to a close... we can't afford to keep it, so you'll have to go back to our regular way of communication. ... woof.

fishbat:
I know... it sucks. We'll have to see each other and call each other and e-mail each other and actually communicate. It's going to be weird, but I think we can do it.
Whoa, I finally have a chance to update my journal here. I think I'm getting a cold, but if so I caught it from some of the most beautiful women in the world, so no biggie...."Biggie Biggie Biggie, can't you see?..." Man I love that song. It took me a whole week to get caught up on emails, ebay, and my business for being away...

Hey there Bettina, it's been a while. Yesteray, I randomly stummbled across Real Sex, and was like, "oh, my god! It's Bettina!" Then I realized what was happening and I got all giddy. Your so beautiful (but you've been hearing that a lot lately, I know). Anywho, I just wanted to tell you that you're one of my idols on the site because you're really yourself. And if you see Tiamat, tell her I said hi!
Love you,
Delilah.
Love you,
Delilah.
What a lame week I've had. I got rear-ended on Saturday, and I've had nothing but medical appointments and insurance calls to make all week. Add to this various other medical problems, including having to get a mammogram (not serious, I hope)...I'm in the dumps. LuluMae and I did promo photos for our burlesque troupe, which should have cheered me up, but I was suffering...

I wish I had a ticket to cali..
Oh man, I can finally relax a little, and get caught up with the site. And clean up the huge mess that is my house. I already wiped down most of the fake blood that was coating everything from our Haunted House last night, we made so many kids scream! There are still big piles of burlesque costumes randomly strewn about, and fake body parts....

I really came here to say, though, that I like what you have to say in the feminism group, and it makes me happy because your style is so lovely and retro and you seem to embrace being girly and yet being a strong woman. Don't know if that's clear, but yeah.
And wasn't Kill Bill the best thing to happen to women in movies since...um...Alien?
