Soooo....

[Ghoulish Delight]

I'm staying late working. It's not so bad. This is CP's late night anyway, I've got a lot that needs to get done before the weekend here at work, I came in a little late this morning, and took a long lunch with CP. So this is hardly torture. It's actually kind of nice to be here in the lab as people trickle out and it gets emptier and emptier. Far less need to have my fingers hovering over "Alt-tab" while I read the board.

You did NOT just tell me that. On Mondays and Wednesdays I do have enough time for such a thing....I'm in so much trouble now.

I love a long hot bath. It's going to be hard to not succumb to temptation!

LOL

Alt-Tab? Drawing a blank here. Yeah, have no idea what you're talking about

Or the ultimate emergency, Windows key-D. I've got so many systems going that I'm on a KVM switch, so I can often just switch over to another system view.

I have time on Monday's!

We could start a club....Afternoon Bathers!

Sounds so decadent! It's usually late morning when I make it to the shower anyway...I might just have to change that to LONG dreamy bath, with wine, candles...of course this might not be a good idea for afternoon baths...

Today I finally broke down and called the Arizona DMV to get the costs of registering our vehicles here...We've been here since July...I guess it's about time!

HOLY FREAKIN COW! It's triple what I paid in Texas for my suburban and my husbands car! $300 bucks for both cars! I asked the girl on the phone if this was a one time registration...Nope! Every year...OH..but it depreciates every year at 2%! Ahhhh!

I know California pays more...but this was a shock for me! It's a good thing I'm getting a hefty tax refund! Geesh!

I need !

The Lone Monkey just read me his library book. He wanted to read it to me last night but with CS we ran out of time. This is the first book he brought home in a while (other than his weekly reading assignment). He was so pleased with it. I collect mice and he found a book about Owen the mouse. He did a really good job too!!

Right now I am drinking a glass of Sprite, thinking about turning it into a Margarita cooler, and he is making a book about the girls. So far he has the title page: Twitch and Sniff by Nick and Carin and is drawing pictures on the cover.

Hubby (aka Father of the Monkey) is off checking on a friend who left his wife today.

Dupioni? That's the stuff, I believe. I had a blazer a few years back of something similar in a pearly white and gray.

I'm loving a pale yellow and gold combo, with narrower stripes of red between.

Yes! That's the fabric! This lucious fabric also comes in a few patterns of stripes and these awsome colors that flash to another color depending on the light. I have been in love with this fabris for a while now and can't wait to work with it. Now, (Sheila) the goal is to actually do the sewing.

That... I can help with. I sewed a lot of my own clothes when I was a teen. I was so stylin' with my Betsey Johnson outfits and palazzo pants. I've still kept the BJ patterns because they still look really fashionable!

As for what I'm doing right now? I just finished "not watching" American Idol. Because to watch trash television, well, that would be just *wrong*. :cough:

Do I get any make-up points from the fact that the pup just liberated my prized Lawrence Ferlinghetti "Coney Island of the Mind" book from the bookshelf and customized it for me? I'm going to kill that dog....

That makes me so happy to hear that... from 89-96 a certain very close friend of mine was a designer at BJ.

I've got to stop staying away from LoT for so long.
