Thanks a lot Blogger.<BR/><BR/>The big news was: I ate raw fish and I liked it! I have to eat it with veges and rice, but I like it. Chantrelle is a great person to experience sushi with. And music.<BR/><BR/>Jason Webley live is an experience everyone should have. He had an entire audience of people "not here to see him" eating out of his hand. It was incredible. His energy, his style, his genius are staggering. I have never seen a performer so good at audience participation. Go. See. Him. <BR/><BR/>Iphones and Garmin GPS are my saving grace.

One voice in my head kept saying "you need to eat dinner now" and the other would respond "Yeah.. in a minute". 3 hours later I ate dinner. <BR/><BR/>I like building things too. I find carpentry and sewing to be similar - just different materials being put together with different tools. The construction and embellishment aspects are what I find interesting.Stardustgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11510694655266914556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10610763.post-48091178206740010442009-01-25T13:20:00.000-08:002009-01-25T13:20:00.000-08:00Maureen, stretchy time would also take care of the...Maureen, stretchy time would also take care of the problem.

IMHO It seems like a good way to keep up for some things with a few people, but splitting things across Twitter / Blog / Whatnot starts to get confusing and either repetitive if its all the same, or missing things if not. I've dabbled a bit and so far prefer blog / Facebook since it's not so chaotic. Twitter seems best in small doses. Your Mileage May Vary. :-)<BR/><BR/>Phiala - someone needs to invent Home Projects That Do Themselves.

Mom is the original owner and Dad decided 8-tracks were dinosaurs and got the "radio accomodation package" which just meant "don't put in a stereo but give me an antenna" when the car was ordered. The first stereo it had was an aftermarket with a cassette. That one got updated at some point, and then I put in this new one w/gps.<BR/><BR/>☛ Kitty - *waves* I commented over at your MySpace. ☺<BR/><BR/>☛ Sally - cool!! ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I can see playing with this is going to be fun, but I'm getting a lot of question marks instead of icons. <BR/><BR/>☛ Adri - So, if I've got lots of question marks, is it a browser issue or an OS issue? And can I tweak a preference someplace? I know the candystore aspect of seeing allllll those books. Friends couldn't believe it when I'd give them freebies, even though I would tell them I could get a large number of comps with no problems. It was a perk, just like the video games and pool table. I miss the dotcom bubble. And I really could use some of those books now as I try to make friends with my Terminal. I'm untangling css php sql yadda yadda... it's not native, but I'm working on it anyway. If I rely soley on cPanel I'd feel like an AOL user (er... no offense to any fiendy aol'ers... whatever works for you).<BR/><BR/>Marjorie - books sorted by size if applicable (all the tall ones at one end),then author if I've got more than 3 or so by the same person. Art books tend to be grouped by subject. Cookbooks are actually *in* the kitchen.<BR/><BR/>Phiala - That is a *lot* of books. You might build your own book cases. I did that in our house since it was much cheaper and sturdier than the stand-alone options. It's basically build a box and attach to wall, repeat as necessary.<BR/><BR/>Lorraine - I've noticed a trend: Cabal leaves, cold weather eases up. Cabal returns and so does cold weather.
