Oh Susannah!!!
My very cool secret pal Susannah sent me a package~! Let me just say I love it~
I have to run to the store super quick, go go go grease lightnin', but when I return, I will write more..
Before I forget... Must write about Joy/cd, ummmm, ooops the water, more about susannah, and a zillion other things.. but for now feast your eyes on what I just got in the mail! Back in a half hour!
I know I'm a greasy scummy hesher chick, but does my secret pal?? Hahahaha, 2 bars of soap lady! USE THEM! (I'm just kidding!)
Oh my god! The william shatner song is SO f***ing hillarious!!! I think my favorite part is when they go "cuz everyone hates a tourist!" How absolutely fitting for this here place in the summer! Susannah, you have outdone yourself mama! I can't wait to find out who you are!
Okay, so in her travels, Miss JOY ever so kindly took orders from the bitch brigade and she got me the brandy spanking new hot off the burner ART FIBERS SOFTWARE!!!!! I think it'll be here tomorrow! I may lose sleep over this waiting in anticipation!
Oh, and YES, you all well know by now that I am either brain dead or mildy retarded. My pool water keeps turning GREEN! Yes, yes, I put algaecide in it! Yes, yes, the chlorine was right. Yet, it still turned VERDE! Sooooo, I let the water out. I left the WATER ON! As in ALL NIGHT! This may be hard for some of you water conservationists to hear! And I swear, I didn't mean to! See, so everyone who I forget to write or call or meet up with in a timely fashion, it's not YOU! I'm just a spacy chick. Here's what I don't get... THE WATER IS STILL GREEN!!!!!! I'm doomed.
To mon amie Sylvie, you didn't have to send me anything for doing that you know!! I was happy to help out! Everyone must check this out, scroll down a bit to see her beautiful shrug she's designed!! Pattern available soon via Sylvie!!!
Can anyone tell me why I keep dreaming about Matt Pike running around half naked with a towel wrapped around his head like a turban?? Me neither! But it's like the umpteenth night in a row.. I have been having the WEIRDEST dreams lately.
And my new addiction is playing hand after hand of solataire on the computer. It's like CRACK! I keep saying "just one more game! JUST ONE MORE GAME!!!!" What in the hell is wrong with me and does the mercury in retrograde have anything to do with the fact that I just can't seem to win more than 2 games out of like 50??? I think it's rigged!!!!
SYLVIE! Here are 2 links, one is for the purse pattern I told you about, and the other is something I really wanna make one of these years!!!!!
Purse pattern from retro knits
One of the coolest tops I have ever seen, I mean BRAVO!!! Arrrrgh, I LOST THE LINK!! It's called something like the corset top, someone please please send the link if you know what I am talking about.. I suck!

How did you get a secret pal? LUCKY!
BTW - your Lelah pattern is calling my name right now, and I'm trying to figure out how I can work my "real job" and knit at the same time. I think I have some Lamb's Pride around here somewhere...
:D

Lucky! My SP said I would be getting a package last week but it never came. :( I think it's karma for me not sending out my second package yet.
And you got the Artfibers software?!?!?! You gotta tell me all about it when it arrives!
I saw the pic but he doesn't look familiar, who's Matt Pike?

oooo, can't wait to hear about the software! I have been trying to track joy down all day. Husker Du rockss!!!! Fab package... i am in eager anticipation of my second package and am in shock that I seem to be more on top of sending that she is!

Solitaire is SOOOO addicting! I used to play constantly too, but now I'm on again-off again. The best part: I SUCK at the game! I rarely win and it just pisses me off. Yet I continue to play like it's the best thing in the world ...
Your pool water is still green? Is it the water or the pool itself? Maybe it just needs a good scrub or something. Or maybe it's something goofy like th pH is off.
And that CD sounds like it's amazing. Your secret pal rules.

Yay! I'm glad that you like it! (The two bars of soap was not meant to imply that I can smell you from the next timezone, really it wasn't! I just like the yummy smells and colors!)
The William Shatner song is actually a cover of an old song by Pulp. The guy who sings the choruses is Joe Jackson of "Is She Really Going Out With Him?" fame. But the Shatner album is just genius. It's called Has Been and was done with ben Folds and has a whole bunch more people collaborating while ol' Bill does his little spoken word. I mean, it has Henry freakin' Rollins on it. What's not to love?
Now all I have to do is figure out what ELSE I can send you... hmm... (Maybe I'll pick up something when I'm in Canada in a couple weeks!)

Lucky! I got one postcard in the mail. Ah well. At least the person I have has recieved a packaged filled with awesome things. And I'm making her snocks for her feets.

If you think the William Shatner is hilarious you have to hear the Leonard Nimoy CD. So funny!
I used to be addicted to solitaire, then hearts, and now it's WeBoggle, an online form of Boggle. Way too addictive ...

That's NOT the one I was talking about.. aaaaaah fuck. But that one is pretty cool! The one I am talking about was actually short sleeved and had these like things on the side, like bondage pants kind of.. I was thinking of omitting them though.. I must search more.. You guys will flip!

Hey, thanks. But you know what, I printed that corset top the very day I saw it and it's been on the first page of my "mega inspirational must knit "project booklet ever since !! And you know the best ? I showed it to some friend, and she said "uh, no I don't specially like it"... But how could she ?!!!! It's so gorgeous ! Had also saved the retro purse, ..but I've just started another"you know which" purse, in green this time!
