I often end up still catching up the Thurs dump and Fri threads on Mondays, so I'm game with cutting back, or going to round robin email, whatever. I love the work you've done creating a space, and would miss everyone if there were nothing at all.

See, it's like 8pm and I'm only just settling in to read/reply. My life, lol.

Oh damn that shipping from the UK, this is lovely.

I wonder if you message her, would she combine shipping like sellers do on eBay and charge less overall? It's worth a try before you relent and order.

Well, I finally got an appt to get Daddy's car fixed (bodywork from his poor driving, nothing major) and getting things done in chunks, so I feel like something is shaking loose. I need to pry my ass from the couch because my weight gain/muscle loss is alarming, and I have the lesson of his frailty as a reminder of what happens to those who quit moving.
So I am off to go move things around in my shared bedroom, because my side looks like a rebellious teen lives in it with clothing dangled all about. In all the years of living here, this house's closets and space still makes no sense to me so I am constantly just dropping things because they don't have a proper place to be.

Yay for fun with kids! I'm just a 14 yr old boy and can only make fart jokes when asked about wind...pfft.
Although on a side note, I was fascinated to learn the physics of how airplanes fly (the faster air/less pressure equals lift thing) but I don't know how to make that into a fun project, I just liked drawing it.

Oh man, is it a universe thing, because we have been thinking it was Fri for two days and wut? it can't be wed again.

I so miss Tom Petty, too. So much genius.

Can't go wrong with the greatest Superbowl halftime show ever, Prince in 2007. I can't find a decent clip right atm but they are out there:

When you are ready to step into the absolute Majesty of Guitar that was Prince (along with 24 other instruments, not including his body and his voice) settle into a quiet spot and come with me back to 1985 at a concert unmatched by any other performance in history. He plucked genius from the Gods and interpreted it so we mere mortals could understand greatness.
This might be a bit heavy for an introduction, proceed with care. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bm03wqLY3Nc

I know that feeling! May it have nothing to do with their recognition and choosing of you... you hear that, Universe?
