AAAHHhhhhhh - iced tea and less heat!

The weather has finally broken, cooler air coming for the next bit - and as a result I've managed to wrastle the baby quilt onto the frame and actually took a few stitches this morning before heading off late to work.

What does this mean for Kal's quilt? Well, it means that I tried doing the fancy stitching thing I was gonna do to "finish" it - and it sucked tepid pond slime, so I have taken it OFF the frame, and am picking out the bit of "fancy crap" that I did and will bind it and mail it shortly! If I ever get an address to mail it TO.

I guess I'm going to just have to admit to myself that fancy-schmancy is not my forte and stick with straight lines and geometric. I tried fancy-schmancy once before - on the "monstrosity" quilt, and I have no idea when it may or may not be finished, as I will have to fancy a bit more to get it done and it irritates me.

According to Huffington Post, testicle-eating fish have been found in a southern Illinois lake. While I am concerned with regard to the introduction of non-native species to the ecosystem - I laughed.

I was under the impression that fancy-schmancy shit was done with a machine these days. I did some needle work when I was a kid and note that they still have patterns in the fabric stores. But it is time consuming, ah fuck, mutter, mutter.

If the testicle-eating fish want mine they can damn well have them, I'm tired of putting up with those fuckers, I'm 69 fucking years old, I'm getting tired of those fuckers bugging me for sex.

Sorry - who's testicles are they eating?

I think open water swimming might be off the list of things to do this weekend now I've read that!
