I'm a puter- offer...
9:40pm...DArcy and I are doin' a happy jig- all the Linus beads are complete and in the kiln...I'm going to take a break and then come back and work on something for ya'll for tomorrow...i dunno what yet, but hopefully I won't fall asleep before then...acutally I'm watching the Arkansas/USC football game, to see what USC is all about since they are ranked #1 and UT is ranked #2...oh man - they are really good...this is gonna be a good game, until Arkansas gets tired...whew!
Well, the LInus beads aren't quite done yet, but I'm working on them while watching College Football today...I'll be sending out payment requests once they are complete and my goal is to package them and get them in the mail tomorrow so they are on their way to you...I'm teaching all day Monday and most of Tuesday, so I want these to go out before Wed...
The past couple of days its been scorching hot here (98 today, rah) and the A/C in the studio has been delivering less cold air...it wasn't completely out of cold air, it just wasn't as cold as normal...after resigning ourselves to call the A/C dudes, I went over to look at the thermostat, wondering why the unit had been blowing for hours, only to see that the button had been moved from 'auto' to 'fan'...
now that its back on 'auto', the cold air is pumping out and I'm wearing a parka again...hurrah...you'd have to see this gigantic A/C to understand why we didn't want to have folks come looka at it..its a 5 ton unit..most houses have 1 or 1.5 ton units..this one is 5...its as big as my Miata...i don't know how many 'regular' A/C dudes have seen something this size or would even know how to fix it...I DO know that there are many many wasps inside the unit, cause I see them flying in during the spring..sometimes they end up in my studio, coming in thru the ducting...I go out in the winter and anhilate them, but alas, they come back...whatever...
So after Target, we went to a local store that had wonderful Halloween goods and, well, I didn't make it out so easily this time...but one of the things I bought was called a Fire Jewel..its a swarovski crystal that has been strung w/ optic fiber and attached to a battery, and when you wear it, it lights up...its the COOLEST thing you've ever seen..I got an orange one, cause I like Fall colors, but i want one in EVERY color they make...oh man...I'm lovin' this thing...!
