msfledermaus | *grabs a couple of Gummi Bears*

Yes, the parental units visited me again, and loaded me up with candy. I'm sharing with my cow-irkers, since there's no way a sole human can eat all these gummi bears and mints and such...*eats more gummis* I mean, it's really wrong to eat all this candy...*eats still more gummis* Murph wurble...*gulp*

My "weekend" was pretty interesting...full of things good and bad. Such as:

Lots of spinning this weird experimental stuff that looks like candy. Why does good yarn look like candy all of a sudden? *Looks at gummi bears* Oh.

My folks visiting--it went really nicely:)

I mailed off the creatures I made for someone, and that felt really good.

I also got "Paint it Black", the Voltaire book that centers on home decorating for the spookily inclined. Ooooh, ooh, you must get a copy, or two, or twelve! The baby doll-altering section alone is worth the $10.

There was some kind of death in my apartment building. I went out to mail some things and there were two police cars and the medical examiner next to a couple of crying girls. They were unloading a gurney, so I got out of there pretty fast and ran my errands, all the while thinking, "Ohhhhhhhh crap, those poor girls..." I still have no idea what happened; I think it's too early yet to ask the manager without feeling like a ghoul.

Knitting Night is back on Tuesdays, which is easier for me. Next time I'll call ahead to get us a guaranteed table, since the coffeeshop was packed last night.

I was having fun this morning painting the base coat for a new mixed-media piece I started last night. Lots of cool architectual bits I bought at an architectural renovation store are involved. (Gee, thanks Voltaire for kicking me in the creative butt again. Owwwww, my butt...)

So there you are...
