So what is it that you are shaking, movie and shake-makers? Hmmm. Yes. I have observed that having a child will often cause changes in a person's behavior. I now stay home even more than usual. I glue my shoe soles with Seam Grip.
I used to love me some Seam Grip, but now I hate it. They only had the big bottle at my local specialty outsidey shop. It cost me $21.50 worth of my gift certificate. And it only lasted 2 or 3 small mending parties?! It solidifies. Maybe I could have melted it back into it's supple, flowy goopiness if I'd taken the time to set it in a pot of hot water. But instead I reamed it with a screwdriver and punctured the side of the tube! Ach! Now you've done it, sport-o, now ye've stuck yer tube where ye shouldn'ta! Ach! The shame! The vapory, sticky shame! I hear Shoe Goo works just as good and is way cheaper.
I stopped by my bicycling friends' place after working for a day or so at the mutual fund raising campaign office. I gave them a cheap cigar to celebrate/brag about the birth of our baby son awhile back.
It was there that I scored this fat bag of used baby threads.
Cha-ching! Chris said, "It looks like you!" as he handed me a plastic bag for my sweet haul of baby power suits. I didn't know what he was talking about. But then he explained that with my clear plastic rain coat I looked a lot like the bag of clothes.
I was also informed that Olympia Cycles is having a chili feed on Saturday. So much fun out there, so little time! Better make the most of it. Might wanna fix up them shoes and score some sweet-ass baby clothes! Now this is living!
