Good point, AM. A very good point, indeed.

I have never made anything with a sewn-in lining before so this will be a learning opportunity. The faux-fur combing thing is going to be interesting. Rwarr.

Some friends of mine ended up making their chaps out of fake fur. Actually they started as fur pants, but turned into ass-less chaps because they were too hot. At least that's what they called them. My recollection of chaps was that they didn't have an ass in them anyway. Whatever.
It's going to be alright.

It's January in Minnesota. You've already placed your bets as to when the first ship will get through the Duluth Bridge this spring. Now you must fill the long empty months until then. the other option is to get pregnant.






I'm surprised she doesn't have triple the number.

Z, that's part of my problem as well. I want to do lots of things for short periods of time instead of investing in one particular thing.
Okay, work with me here, both of you. It's only half an idea but if you could make specialty objects for people--not quite art not quite cabinet making, get to know some interior designers and make conversation pieces. You know, what kind of fountain would a rich burner have in his/her atrium stuff. I'm explaining poorly. And I"m jelous of hte job that I've just created for you.

Barkeep set me up. Ineed to be e-drunk four days straight so keep them coming until five pm!

Hm. when I was in St. Paul (82-84) people were always saying hi on the street, and I'd just 3 feet in the air, because it was such a different vibe than Berkeley.

I have noticed that people are always friendlier when it is really, really, really fucking cold. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that ignoring someone in a jam could be the same as killing them when it is 30 below.
