. . . geshundheit . . .

. . . summer colds are dumb . . .

. . . it's one hundred forty 'leven degrees outside . . .

. . . and i've got a raw, scratchy throat . . .

. . . i'm achy and sneezing . . .

. . . it just doesn't make sense, does it? . . .

. . . so ~ i'm taking this opportunity

to watch a little food network . . .

{reruns of chopped all stars, in case you were wondering}

. . . and finish up the handstitching

on a loooooooong overdue project . . .

. . . seems like perfect weather

for cuddling under a quilt,

don't you think? . . .

{you know what else is sad?

my eyes have gotten bad enough

that i can only sew on black stuff

in broad/natural daylight.

hurray for the fifties!!!!}
