#1 - the weird dream seemed to have brightened my morning by forcing me to grab skid row's slave to the grind from the cd shelf. i admit i am not normally a metal girl. but there was a time... anyway, my forays into metal now are strictly of the aerosmith/ac/dc/classic rock variety. but i was in the mood - a dream with sebastian bach will do that. and it was most excellent.

#5 - i am carrying my finally finished nappy bag. and it is a thing of beauty.

#6 - i booked my flight to nola last week. i see teena in 24 days!

oh happy day!

i'm certain they are going to take over the world soon.

i mentioned that i would  really like to go to the quilting store in naperville that teena took me to. he said, "why don't we make a day of it? i could pickup hungry howies, you could go to the quilt store..." a plan was hatched. a plan that i expressed reservations about.

so, this morning i left for grandma duty bright and early. then i met shawn at the end of the blue line. we then drove to aurora to the outlet mall. ugh. shawn did however get a home theater sound system for the new and improved basement. shawn then dropped me off at the quilting store and went to hungry howies. i bought some really beautiful fabric which i, of course, cannot currently use. we then went to ikea and filled every last inch of space in the car. this is the point at which we started getting cranky. we went to claimjumper for dinner and then drove as fast as we could back to the city. we then had to go drop off my artwork at morpho gallery for the show.  i was gone from 7:15 a.m.  to 9:00 p.m. shawn was gone from about 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. we were probably in the car for half that time. monkey hates us. and we hate each other. the suburbs do this to us.

i was lying in bed this morning, staring at shawn's sideburns. they are a point of great contention. they seem to be taking over his face. and as i've heard many an old lady say, "he's too cute to cover up his face with all that nonsense." and they grow. and grow.  they change shapes. they are like a entity unto themselves. they are going to get their own zip code soon. the amount of time i spend staring at high sideburns, trying to figure them out is unreal. and so, i feel i must share them with you.

he just sent me this. yuck.
