Gadabout
Work yesterday was pretty good. I had a good show. I asked if I should get involved in NASCAR and got some good calls. Made for a lively topic. The answer from the listeners was "no." I'm glad. I don't want to get involved in NASCAR.
Last night I went by a new music series at Mercury Hall. Cute little venue. MM is putting it on with the other station. I wasn't in the mood to be out for music and I had trouble parking so I didn't stay too long. But she wanted me to see the place and I did. I would like to be able to have a small intimate show at a place like that.
I came home and actually began work on my quilt last night. I wanted to get ONE square done so I could see how it would look. I cut and sewed and cut and sewed and watched four hours of TV (so probably three hours of work?). Mark came home and I was still trying to finisht the one square. So I finally finished it and it was wrong. Augh. Cuss cuss. Had to rip four seams and I will try again tonight. Frustrating. So three hours (at least) times at least 30 squares? That is a lot of time. And that is just the squares. Then there is the sashes and quilting and binding. I had better work fast. I will pull out the machine tonight and use it some, too. And I didn't wash the material so I will probably go back and do that. I am also reconsidering the white material. I may get a more sturdy material than the muslin.
This morning I've already been out for breakfast. What a gadabout I am now! I went to Cisco's to see my young friend the singer/filmmaker. It was nice to catch up with him. He doesn't do the blinky thing like I was thinking. He just says "exactly" a LOT and is a little too enthusiastic. Still love him and enjoy seeing him. He showed me some video footage for a project he's working on. While we were there Mike Judge came in and had breakfast behind us. Intersting.
Now I need to get to work. No, not into it today.
