Monnie bonnie! Love the opener. So how was San Diego? LOLA and all PR watchers - sorry I missed another Runway. Hard to say when I will get back to it, but I'm gonna try. TONIGHT'S DRAMA:The 14 yr old asked to use my gorilla glue for a craft she was doing. No problem; she is very talented with craft type stuff and it didn't worry me, so I told her "sure." However, unbeknownst to me, she decided to USE HER HAND to spread a huge glop of the stuff all over the back of a big piece of cardboard. So guess what? Her hand was covered in (foamed up and) hardened gorilla glue at the end of it all. We spent at least an hour getting it off. It involved nail polish remover, Lava soap, a soak in warm soapy water, and Vaseline. I think she learned her lesson.

Lola! I love, nay LURVE your PR comments. I always find them so refreshing. I don't know enough about fashion to ever predict what the judges will say. I mean, I know what I like, and what I consider "pretty," but that ain't always fashion. I didn't like Olivier's outfit at all. I like Olivier, but that dress did nothing for me. He is the same color as his outfit! And I don't see why he didn't get slammed for using the dog bed material when Josh got slammed for using umbrella material. Josh did play it too safe, true, but I'm not sure he deserved the elimination. Besides, now we'll miss the burgeoning love affair he was having with Joshua!! (Or as TLo calls him, Mr. Clinique Counter) HEEEEE.

I don't remember who I told about my One Good Thing of the day, so bear with me - after I got back from my epic drive, I called the local Post Awful and harassed Ernesto the delivery supervisor about my missing package. See, the tracking data said it had been delivered yesterday afternoon, but I was here when the mail came, brought it in myself, and my package wasn't there. I even went out and searched the porch and the bushes, and the more I looked, the more it wasn't there, and so I told Ernesto. For once, instead of blowing me off, he took down all the information and said he'd call me back when he figured out what had happened. So around 12:30, the phone rang. Ernesto says "Are you home?" Um, yeah. "Look in your mailbox," says he. So I did, and there was my package. This time, the carrier had delivered the package to the correct street number, but it was the wrong street. Fortunately, she was able to remember where she'd dropped it off, retrieved it, and Ernesto made her drive right over and drop it off. I thanked him profusely for his efforts. This is no way to run a railroad... Also, the washer repair company called and Technician is going to be here tomorrow between 11AM and 2PM. I'll believe it when I see it, but at least Himself will be here to get underfoot deal with the guy.

Monnie bonnie! Love the opener. So how was San Diego? San Diego was wonderful and fantastic, as per usual. I'm already jonesing to go back. I may even move there one day. Who knows? But Comic Con was a blast. We took it easy this year and didn't rush around to see every single thing. And we still got to see so many celebrities! Ikept telling myself that I wouldn't go back next year, but I just might have to. I miss it already. Holy moly! That's scary! She could have lost a lot of skin doing that. I've been keeping track a little bit of how things are going with your new adventures. More power to you, woman. I know I wouldn't have the patience or strength or love to do what you're doing. I MISS YOUUUUU!! We need to meet up sometime.

Still have yet to watch this week's PR. Made jam today. Lots and lots of jam. And strawberry pie. The strawberry pie didn't turn out, came out more like strawberry soup but still tasty.
We made cherry and strawberry jams, for the curious.

Spring, after many hard lessons I've found that the best way to remove gorilla glue (which I use for all sorts of construction stuff) is to cover it with duct tape while it's still tacky, leave it for about ten minutes, and peel off. The stuff crawls up surfaces, so if you use it you get it on your skin. And it eats nitrile gloves. Julia, but I love it, if holds like nothing ever else

Monnie's back! Monnie's back!
Do you have lots of wonderful ComiCon stories? Did you meet lots of neat celebrities? Can I sit in your lap?
No.
Wait...
Did you know that I'm going to DragonCon next month?

I'm in Lander. Got here last Saturday. The apartment I'm staying in doesn't have internet, and the only free internet I've found is the public library, so I'll be on the board intermittently for a while. This rotation is pediatrics. It's going well; overwhelming at first, but I think I'm starting to get the hang of it.
