Well, my universe is back in balance - we have ice cream! šŸ˜ƒ I just made a quick run to McKayā€™s while my bread was rising, and I think itā€™s in the bake mode now. Besides the few necessaries, \*\*FCD \*\* asked me to bring him some fruit, so I splurged and got him some fresh pineapple chunks, some cut-up honeydew, and some marginally overpriced strawberries. Hey - heā€™s recuperating, so heā€™s entitled to some goodies. Last time my sweetie used his blowtorch, he was melting the ends of some nylon straps so they wouldnā€™t fray. Before that, he had to solder the copper pipes leading to the outside faucet out front - the freeze-proof unit froze and split. My fault - I didnā€™t disconnect the hoseā€¦ Anyway, itā€™s good now. But itā€™s \*our \* blowtorch. Speaking of my sweetie, heā€™s crashed again. So are the critters. Iā€™m the only non-napper in the bunch, and Iā€™m the only one whoā€™s done anything all day! Not a complaint, just a comment. Poor \*\*FCD \*\* keeps apologizing for me having to do everything. Um, duh - spinal surgery! I keep reminding him that heā€™d do the same for me if the situation was reversed. Sometimes I think he likes to wallow in guilt. Sheeshā€¦ ---

Hey, **snowbunny** , did you have to include that AWFUL photo of me? It makes me look fat and lazy, plus it makes my office look like a hopeless mess! Well, okay, it usually is, but did you have to advertise it to the world? :dubious: But itā€™s great to finally see Oliver the Newfie! And all the other doggies I hear about. I refuse to discuss the GORGEOUS place you live, however. Color me hopelessly jealous!

It was the best picture of Rusty I had, and itā€™s not that bad a picture of you. I know how you feel about pictures of you becaus I HAAAAATE pictures of me. So nyah. (But if youā€™re really unhappy, Iā€™ll try to crop you out of it or something.) ---

Okay, okay, I looked a little more closely at it, and that is a pretty bad picture of you. But I canā€™t find a way to keep Rusty without having just the part of you you donā€™t want in it in it, so I took it down and Iā€™ll put up another one of the Idiot. He looks so ridiculously HAPPY, though! ---

Where did this blowtorch come from? Iā€™m sick. I want drugs, but I will settle for tea and sympathy. Or at least tea. I did go to the farmerā€™s market this morning and got some green beans that were still in the field yesterday, some tomatoes, some asian pears and an aloe plant. I think I need to go to the store for ice cream. ---

Peppermint tea for SCL, with buttered toast fingers to dip in it. That always makes me feel better. **MamaTigs** , yes, do send me the zip file. My emailā€™s in my profile. I have done some charting of my own patterns, but havenā€™t charted anyone elseā€™s yet. Iā€™m not sure how you would chart short rows, though. This pattern uses a slightly different method for short rowing, maybe Iā€™ll have more success with them this time. Here is a [link](http://www.flickr.com/photos/12190567@N08/sets/72157602208699725/with/1459288351/) to my yarn purchases today. No more yarn until Stitches West in February! (Yeah, right.) ---

Drive-by post. Another attempted suicide last night; some lady took a metric buttload of valium, enough to kill a couple horses. The last I saw of her, she was spewing charcoal all over the ER. If she made it, Iā€™ll bet she had one muther of a hangover today. ā˜¹ ---

what a simply marvelous day today was. Weather was perfect, even tho I was inside at rehearsal most of the day. The coach had many marvelous things to say to and about us. And her chorus, a multiple major award winner, has grown into the large chorus category, so thatā€™s one less competitor for the mid sized medal! We stll have six months to get reday, and sheā€™ll be back in January, so yay! Plus on the way home (after errands) I got some good shots of the house in the neighborhood that ā€œdresses upā€ for Halloweā€™en. Iā€™ll post the pics (and link) in a few. Yay for successful hospital visits ---

Font file is sent, **Jahdra** ; Iā€™ll warrant itā€™s safe, I got it from a reputable website ā€“ [elann.com](http://elann.com), if Iā€™m not mistaken. Thanks for taking down that ghastly picture of me, **snowbunny**. Itā€™s not like itā€™s hard to find pictures of Rusty looking HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!, so if you find you donā€™t have a good one let me know and Iā€™ll send you a selection. šŸ˜ƒ Sorry you donā€™t feel well, **SCL**! Iā€™d send you tea, but as my British friend (whoā€™s lived in Canada for 30 years, but donā€™t _ever_ call her Canadian!) taught me this past week in Oregon, if the water isnā€™t literally\* boiling when you pour it over the tea, itā€™s not worth drinking. I doubt water would stay that hot shipping it via cyberspace, so Iā€™m afraid youā€™re on your own! Feel better soon, though. Next time I see you, **FCM** , I expect some yummy homemade bread! Youā€™re torturing me with your descriptions!!! ETA: Oops, couldnā€™t send out the file for some reason, **Jahdra** ā€“ your email provider called it an illegal attachment. Iā€™ll see if I can find where I downloaded it from again and send you a link, how about? ETA Again: Try [this website](http://home.earthlink.net/~ardesign/knitfont.htm) for the font. Thatā€™s where I got it from after I found the link elsewhere. ---

**BBBobbio** , when you have an attempted suicide like that one, where the person has ingested a bunch of drugs, what do you do in the ambulance? Do you just give them a fast ride and let the ER give the charcoal, or is there a procedure you follow? This is assuming they arenā€™t showing any symptoms yet. Thanks for the tea and sympathy, everyone. I am drinking YogiTea Womenā€™s Moon Cycle tea - on top of the cold/sinus/allergy/whatever, Aunt Flo stopped by for a visit. Just three weeks after the last time she was here. Menopause is the frackinā€™ pits and I am very tired of it. Forget ice cream - I want some cinnamon applesauce bread! That sounds so good! Maybe Iā€™ll make some cinnamon toast to go with my tea. Not the same, butā€¦ ---

I still didnā€™t think it was quite as bad a picture as you thought, but whatever. It was bad, but I hadnā€™t really looked at you. I guess Iā€™m a bit doggy-obsessed!

Speaking of which, \*\*MamaTigs \*\* - The next show (Oct 27) runs 11-5, but I need to go the afternoon before to set up the canopy and shelves. I figure we need to be there by 9:30 at the latest to finish setting up. So, do you want to stay over on Friday night like last time? ---

Cool house, **Rosie**! And staying overnight again sounds good, FCM, if you donā€™t mind having me. I thought this time I might bring a small table, too, to display my wares on ā€“ I donā€™t want to trespass unnecessarily on your good graces in giving me shelf space. Iā€™ll measure the table next time I go out to the shed, but itā€™s pretty small so should be useful.
