Blast from the past
Those of you who’ve been privy to my end of the wedding saga were no doubt wondering how on earth I expected to host my sister, niece and mother for a couple days in what’s generally considered a large studio apartment. Yeah, I was wondering, too. And scurrying around to all the thrift stores, combing craigslist for decent bedding for them. All I had was a twin bed & a single aero bed…
Just as it was coming down to the wire, this set showed up @ the Habitat Store. Not only that, but when I called my landlord (aka guy with a big truck) he was free right then & came down & fetched it. Whew! Law of Attraction in action!
Those of you who knew me in the 70′s are no doubt laughing your heads off. Yes, indeed. I had a set very much like this as a teenager… back when it was cool. What I’m wondering… this makes so much more sense than a futon. Why did they stop making them? (Other than the icky fabric. But that can be changed…)
Here is some Friday fun:
- The Hacker’s Diet- An Eat Watch? I kept checking for signs of sarcasm, but am afraid this guy is all too serious.
- The Uniform Project- One dress, 365 days. A stunt blog, but one with a cause.
- Bacon facts- Get ready, National Bacon Day is 9/4
- Bang Bang Egg Cooker- because you can’t live on bacon alone
- Fairy Congress- The Fairy & Human Relations Congress is coming right up, 6/25
- Outlaw Catalog of Cagey Optimism- I like this so much better than the DSM-IV
Sara, how nice to have TGIF back! Great fun, and here goes. I am genuinely fascinated with the Hacker’s Diet because it addresses problems I myself have or had. Maybe you react as you do because you don’t have this massive weight problem. Give the guy a chance – it worked for him. As to the U. Project, are you gonna try it? As to bacon – hog bellies? Thank goodness we eat turkey bacon from the Co-op! My alternative to the Big Bang was developed by the child of a colleague of mine – put one raw egg in microwave. Set on 5 minutes, full power. Stand back. No comment on faerie congresses. I love the catalog. This should be a CC topic. I’d love to hear what some of our CC buddies come up with!
