So, I'm deep in the trenches, apartment hunting. And I've fallen in love with one. It still has to get Brian's seal of approval, he has yet to see it. But I had a good feeling when I saw the pictures on Craigs List, and the good feelings continued through the viewing, even as the property manager listed off very clearly the "drawbacks". All I can think about is how wonderful it would be to live there, and how much money we'll be saving...

In other news, I finished the quilt! I actually finished it last week, but didn't want to post about it until Emmy received it. So now that she has, here is the finished product....

I'm very proud of how it came out, especially since I'm pretty sure I broke every rule of quiltmaking in the process.

Brian and I went to a show last weekend. It was totally spontanious and totally FUN! He had called me earlier in the day to see if I wanted to go out to a late dinner. I just happened to look at the club listings and saw that one of my favorite bands that I listen to all the time was playing that night. So we went to see Ladytron and The Faint. I had the best time, felt renewed and refreshed by the whole experience. We do not get out enough, and there is so much going on here. Hopefully when we find our dream home I'll be able to afford these things...

I took some pictures...

That's Ladytron!!!!!!!




On a whim, because I had no time to put on a fabulous outfit, I tied my grey leather obi belt around my head for a headband. It looked amazing, and now I'm all about belts for headbands. Try it.



Brian is growing a mustache for "mustache month" at work. During the show, we saw a gentleman with a particularly thick mustache and I was about to comment when he approached Brian and said something about the crowd and then gave him the pound it out fist and said "mustache respect", then went on his way. I guess it's a real club...




This picture is my favorite:

Hannah Banana: The quilt is totally amazing! What a clever lady, and I love the way that the birds are reflected on the back of the quilt...who said that there were rules for quilt-making?? What nonsense that is! Even the Amish don't have rules about quilt-making...in fact, that's where they are allowed to express themselves in colour and pattern, where they can't with their clothes, which would draw attention to themselves, which is too proudlich! Talking about clothes...2 things: 1. I have just finished making myself a quilted jacket of many colours (NOT to draw attention to myself of course!!)and 2. I have a picture of your in your 4th Grade picture in Boothbay Harbour...you're wearing a leather belt around your head!!!! Old habits die hard! xxx
