I’m in a relatively good mood today, but entirely annoyed by pretty much everything.
Can I just go back to Sunday? I was driving in my car, past wharfs, across the wide bay, and through fields with new green growth, bucolic farms with goats, sheep, horses with new foals. I was enjoying the sun and the scenery, watching the world reawaken from winter’s sleep. I saw osprey,...

That is the shittiest reason to support someone as mind-numbingly hateful and oppressive as Rick Santorum
If you dislike all the other candidates (and there are a WHOLE FUCKING TONNE OF OTHER CANDIDATES) so much that SANTORUM is your “last resort,” then…

Soooo tired…
…but enjoying the dickens out of my new spinning wheel. :) I was up late with it again last night, just spinning away and creating yarn. It’s probably crap, but it looks pretty good to me, for a beginner.
I wonder, though - I’ve not tried to dye anything yet. Is it better to dye the wool before spinning it, or can I dye it afterward? Kind of stuck here. ...
Forbear to judge, for we are sinners all.

I do not have time to write about yesterday, though I want to.
I hope to do that tonight.
Because I really did have a lovely day yesterday, and I want to put it into words before it evaporates.

Pierre Robert's tribute to his dog, Lucy.
andrewjohnmitchell:
It’s sweet and touching, incredibly moving and reminds you of why owning a pet is important and the impact an animal has in your life. I came very close to breaking down after listening to “Lucy in the sky with diamonds”, which normally I wouldn’t even relate to a sad or depressing emotion. jeez, I want to hug my dog right now.

In listening to other people’s experiences traveling abroad (said “other people” shan’t be named here)…
…it comes as no surprise to me that most people think that Americans are spoiled, overindulged, self-entitled jerks.
I understand that it can be a little daunting to be in a country where you don’t speak the language, but still - you have to actually...

I got a bill for $2k+ for giving birth to Ezra, and then I got a bill for like $300 for Ezra’s clinic visits when he was a week old.
I called those bitches up and I was like “Motherfucker why am I getting these over a year later? I’ve had insurance my entire life and I got…

Today's Astrology: Retrograde Mars and Mercury's...
xibalbadance:
Today is a day for angry people.
Mars is in retrograde.
Mercury is taunting the backwards Mars.
Mars is getting angry about this and is making everyone cranky.
Later today, though, Mars will punch Mercury in the face and will make everyone feel better.
No worries. I’m sure it’ll happen soon.
Well, this clears things up a bit, then. Explains why I’ve been so moody.

Rehearsal last night was surprisingly smooth. We have a new stage manager/techie guy, and I have to say that for being so hastily added and brand-new to the production, he really did a terrific job. A real team player! I love that. :) *~*~*~* I think I’m on my way back to normalcy as far as health is concerned; got through my workout with nary a complaint from my body, so I pushed myself a...
Had a terrible nightmare last night where my office building burned down with many of my co-workers trapped inside.
I could hear them screaming.
“Horrific” doesn’t begin to describe it.

Today is a day for headphones and Pandora.
Definitely.

So, I found someone selling their Ashford Traditional spinning wheel for a reasonable price down in southern Maryland - $300, includes the wheel, lazy kate, and four bobbins - a great start for a beginner like me! I want to get this book, too, to help me out, but what I really want to do is sit with someone else who spins and say...
