so what do you guys think of this -- going to viisit my brother and his 3 year old and 1 year old - he told me to come up for my bday weekend. i go up there once every 4-6 weeks -- and lately, he and his wife have been goign out and i've been babysitting - which is coool

1:20 am

saphyre

you get to babysit for your birthday gift?

1:20 am

debbinla

so he emails me and asks if i have any preference for dinner sat night - and i think he's brining in food for me and the kids and going out with the wife - but everyone else is telling me there's no way he'd do that .....

1:21 am

saphyre

he wouldn't do that would he?

1:21 am

scv

i dont think he would

1:21 am

debbinla

Aloyisius

3:04 am

AmyLou

3:05 am

wassup

now that sounded like james

3:06 am

mkl

Absolutely froelica. All you need in life is a bag of Cheetos, a case of beer, a catheter, and a comfortable chair for babble.

3:06 am

froelica

that WAS a james quote :) and yeah, amy i would LOVE to do that. my boss always says things like "does he even LOOK at you??? does he notice you're alive, doing HIS crap??

3:06 am

froelica

my god that sounds like heaven mkl. seriously.

3:06 am

wassup

mkl, you're speakin' my language

3:07 am

AmyLou

do it! they always say "the easiest way to get somewhere in business it to name drop"

3:08 am

froelica

3:08 am

wassup

$60 NICE

3:08 am

wassup

night mkl

3:09 am

froelica

i know!! that's like..... 10 bottles of shiraz... or i guess a textbook...... or like 10 cases of pabst (12 count)!!!

3:10 am

froelica

you can see where my mind is right now.

3:10 am

wassup

like you said... textbook, shmextbook

3:10 am

froelica

hehheheheh!!

3:10 am

wassup

is it really 1am? wow.

3:10 am

froelica

ottoman, shmottomans.....

3:11 am

wassup

3:11 am

froelica

i wish i did! i'd relax in it.

3:13 am

wassup

my entire body just yawned

3:13 am

froelica

but they did own most of the developed world for an extensive period of time.... and i should probably know why and how..... hmmm... textbook.... NO! must fight the urge to learn!

3:14 am

froelica

that sounds incredible sarah.

3:14 am

froelica

i'm gonna go soon too, my love is coming home to me

3:14 am

wassup

no learning past midnight. it's like the rule about feeding a gremlin...

3:15 am

froelica

hahahaha!!! what the heck rule is that???

3:15 am

wassup

i can't remember, but i know it was important.

3:15 am

Beast

it's from the gremlins movie

3:16 am

AmyLou

don't feed them after midnight or get them wet

3:16 am

Beast

don't feed them after midnight or they turn into gremlins

3:17 am

wassup

oh, that's right. the only part of that movie i remember is the scene with the creepy christmas music playing and the gremlin in the microwave

3:17 am

froelica

gremlins 2 is very educational

3:17 am

AmyLou

yes! the best way to destroy a tv studio full of them is to trick them into the lobby

3:18 am

AmyLou

a drop the fake NY city backdrop

3:18 am

Beast

froelica have you found any more words?? ps your name always reminds me of frangelico the drink

3:20 am

froelica

When I was a kid, my family did not have a lot of money. My father had a reasonably well paying job, but with four kids and a dog, money was often tight. This is not to say that we were deprived or unhappy. Our family did many activities together, but our favorite was camping, which we did year-round, blazing heat or freezing cold.

It was a great site to see the whole clan scrambling to get everything together for a weekend trip. The whole family then piled into our Chevy stationwagon with a dog bigger than the three smallest children put together. Dad would then tie down our trusty tent to the top of the Chevy and off we would go.

Our tent was amazing in and of itself. It was a army surplus tent large enough for the whole family plus dog. It had survived though rain storms, snow storms, wind storms. It had twice been uprooted from its stakes in high winds. (Makes me wonder why we went camping in so much terrible weather.) It had blown off the Chevy a couple of times, but it had always survived. At least it survived with mother's help at the sewing machine. It had patches over patches but it was still our faithful camping tent.

But alas, canvas can only last so long, so after about ten years of steady service, my Dad admitted one summer that our tent was no longer useable. We didn't go camping at all the following fall. The only thing that kept us kids controllable was that Dad promised we would get a new tent at Christmas, and we could go camping all winter.

So Mom and Dad went on a savings program to get the money for our new tent. They even got us kids to pitch in a little. Money was tight, but the savings accumulated, and we all had visions of a great winter outdoors. That is, until disaster struck in late November, and my little bother Johnny broke his arm. Dad hadn't counted on an emergency, and the hospital and doctor bills completely depleted our tent saving. We were all downcast at the prospect of no winter camping. Even I was almost sorry I pushed Johnny off the roof.

So as Christmas approached, we were all pretty glum. There weren't as many presents around the tree as usual, because the extra money had gone into my bother's arm. Finally, Christmas Eve was here, and our month long depression was lifted a little, because we could open our presents. Dad had to work, but he was late, and hadn't called. Mother began to worry, and just before she called the police, Dad drove up. We couldn't believe our eyes! There on top of the Chevy was a brand new shiny tent, even larger than Old Faithful.

Instantly, five voices started asking Dad question after question, so he ushered us all into the living room, around the Christmas tree to tell us what happened. It seems that Dad had seen an advertisement for a store called SURPLUS CITY (all caps required). Last week he had gone by to see if they had any tents that we could afford. There was one perfect tent (the only one actually) for $60. So Dad worked a little overtime and scrimped a little on his Christmas gifts and he scraped together about $45. That night he had gone to SURPLUS CITY with his $45 and tried to get a bargain on the tent. He had managed to chisel the manger down to $50 for the tent, but from there the manager wouldn't budge. There was no credit or lay-away at SURPLUS CITY, either, just cold hard cash.

So Dad went back out to the car, and thought about how hard it would be to come home empty handed. In a flash of inspiration, he got the spare tire from the car and went back in. He asked the manager if he would take the spare tire for $5 so he could buy the tent. With that act of desperation, the managers heart softened. What with it being Christmas and all, and my father being so intent on getting the tent, and stopping in several times over the past week, he let Dad have the tent for $40.

When Dad finished telling this story, we all cheered and hollered and generally made fools of ourselves. That was the happiest Christmas I have ever had. And that was the best winter of camping we ever had too, in THE WINTER OF OUR DISCOUNT TENT.

8:26 am

Atalante

I redid the whole thing in PSP - I was in a strange mood LOL - but now its much easier to fiddle tiny bits and bobs on

8:27 am

Atalante

don't take much notice of the few crossovers that don't look perfect - I'm just not going to get the knotting 100% perfect until the positions of everything is settled!

8:29 am

sprite

Yes, the crossover in the trunk is missing, but I can picture it. It is SO beautiful!

8:32 am

Atalante

trying to get knotwork crossovers right before the final version is a nightmare because you end up spending hours and hours changing them at every twist and turn. so they are just *there* for the time being, I'll fix them properly later

8:32 am

sprite

Of course, it would be a real waste of time otherwise. LOL, let me tell you, that root gnome looks a lot like me :)

8:33 am

Judy, Angelsong's page is a really great help. Don't worry about not seeing through the whole thing at once, just check out that page and we'll answer any other questions you might be left with.

8:59 am

faeriekae

Judy - no your not dense.....we have diffrent themes for icons everyday (which I don't usually join in on) but it is a personl preference

8:59 am

sprite

True, it is not a fast grid. I am not going very fast either.

9:00 am

now you can drag in the right hand side and bottom of the image to make a square out of your character.
