I went to knit night the other night.........and laughed so hard I had tears streaming down my cheeks. What is it about a few chicks in a room knitting that leads to the most bizarre stories I've ever heard? Mind you......it doesn't always happen and is most definitely dependent on the company present. We ended up on a tangent about Hannukah 'donuts' which are known as Sufganiyot. Lisi ended up phoning Canter's deli to prove that she wasn't making it up and ....it felt like a prank call from my teenage years.
ON SPEAKERPHONE: "hello. Yes, I'm calling to see if you have any left over Hannukah donuts."
"you do? Well, how many do you have?"
"uh, huh. Do you sell a lot of Hannukah donuts? ......uh, huh. Yes, you only make them for Hannukah right? I see. And do you sell a lot of them on Hannukah? ....Okay. Thank you. "
Anyway, you probably had to be there as nothing is ever as funny in the translation but my face hurt from laughing.
Just a quick note.........my band is playing tomorrow night at the Scene in Glendale. Onstage at midnight. Should be a gas and it's our last show of 2004.
But here's the agenda of shite, stuff, lists, madness and chaos.............
- my stepson Max is arriving tonight
- I need to redo someone's website design for their approval
- I have another website design due....like yesterday
- I finally had my extensions tightened. (doesn't that sound funny?)
- I need to finish the scarf for my half brother and send it.
- I need to update the Bubble site. (I really should rebuild the whole thing)
- hmmmmmmmmmmm..........I need to sleep.
Now......I KNOW a ton of folks can waaaaaaaay beat that list. Like parents for starters? So I'm not complaining. Simply sharing.
Here's what I love to do.........
- Knit on the couch while watching the first season of Alias for the second time.
- Eat foods that are bad for me.
- Sleep in.
- Go for bike rides cuz it's warm and sunny right now. (he he.)
- Knit at the Stitch Cafe.
- Go to matinee films.
I think I was born to be a lazy bastard. No, really. I just am so good at doing nothing. I can surf the internet for HOURS. Literally hours. I'll come away with square eyes and know nothing more than when I started except for where that really cool site was that had some style that I want to rip off. ha! But when it comes time to design a site.........will I remember? Heck no.
argh!
Well, this is a rambler post today. I have piccies to add and no time. Gotta go do that xmas shop thing before the kid arrives.
At least my hair looks like neapolitan ice cream again. he he. happy ho ho's and merry ding dongs.
How funny -- your face hurt from laughing about the phone call but you didn't say your head hurt from having the extensions tightened -- I'm guessing that you must have laughed *very, very* hard for that to happen that way!!

just a thought that I ...thought(it always seems goofy to repeat words so close together) might seem helpful. when ever you run in to a site you like for an idea/concept/whatever you should write it down and/or have a word document where you can pull it up and it'll have the jibberjams there. that way you and be like. mmm... I can't think of anything... lookie lookie and wallah hopefully you'll get some refreshing ideas by jettin around agian but like uber fast with out having to think to hard about where and what the palces were.
