Skate a little lower now...
I made some beads the other day and wasn't sure I liked them...I tried to do something a little 'wacky' and I can't decide if it just looks messy, or fun, the way I intended it to look...but now that I've had a day to deal with them, I rather like them, I think...
I've been off my schedule the past couple of weeks, staying up too late, waking up really early, then sleep walking thru the day...sometimes this happens to me, its like a weird cycle that I go thru and then I'm back on track and everything is fine...maybe its the cycles of the moon, who knows...
The giant (and that's no lie) orb weaver spider that's been living in our backyard for weeks has relocated...and now, she's setup her web about a foot outside our backdoor...she's attached to our recycling bins and the exterior of our house...Brian said she was moving around on her web when he walked the dog, and it was 'spooky'..I bet! She's great to look at from a distance, but I don't want her to skittle up toward me! I respect nature the way it was meant to be - from a safe distance...We are pretty sure she's going to lay an egg sac soon, she's so big she needs to do something to get the weight off...The girly girl out front is still on the porch, and her sac is still on the eave of the house...I'm waiting for that hatching...
Austin City Limits music fest is this weekend...we shall refrain from making any trips into town...I think they expect 80,000 people...I think that's about what its like when the Longhorns play in town as well...you can always tell when out-of-towners come to town - they are the ones who go the wrong way on the roads and nearly kill you...the best thing to do is just avoid them at all costs...
Brian has people in his office who are contacting him because the 'printer wont print'...when he looks into the problem he finds there's no paper in the tray...Do these people never get off their asses and walk to the printer first? I wish he could ding them $100 for every tech call they make to him (some companies do that to deter just this kind of useless call)...If you work in an office - go check the printer for paper, please...otherwise, you might find

this guy
hanging out on the printer and, well, there's your problem right there...

naw, not on Etsy yet...I've still got only the 3 of them...I'll make more, now that I'm more comfortable with them...I've been carrying them around, bonding with them, and they haven't bitten me, so I guess they are 'good' beads...
