if the feelings i feel for these hills can be real

I have taken up as a new hobby Being Cruel to Clothing. As a result, an old pair of jeans has had the seams ripped out and now sports some snazzy racing stripes. *diabolical grin* I am unholy gleeful about it. This just goes to show that I can do anything my mother has been trying to get me to do for years if I think it's my idea. Including sewing. Hah!

I will now proceed with the standard Abbreviated Weekly Update.

Thursday, or maybe Wednesday - The World Famous Lipizzaner Stallion Show. *sigh* Pretty, pretty horses! It's nice to go to these events and be able to say things like "look at them doing that pretty shoulder-in! My horse hates doing that!" and other such informed comments. They're so beautiful, but they must be a pain to keep clean, being practically white and all. It's bad enough with a horse that's already dirt-colored.

Saturday - Center for Tolerance and Non-violence Origami Potluck & Barbecue. In which I showcase my Parking Attendant skills.

Sunday - The Horse's Day Off. I sleep in until 9 instead of the usual 5:30.

Tomorrow - Oregon Shakespeare Festival trip. Whee! Whee indeed, except not so much for the 5-hour drive. Luckily I am not in charge. Ashland is quite possibly the coolest town in the U.S., and I have a sneaky plan to go try on insanely expensive hand-woven dresses at this one shop near the Elizabethan Theatre. Let us just say that if ever I am invited to the Oscars, and somebody else pays for it, I will wear one of them.

Heh. Lipizzaner. For some odd reason, that word really amuses me. So does "snazzy." And "insanely." And "diabolical." Goodness, I'm in a weird mood. And one of the other women here at work thinks it's funny that I always laugh at myself and amuse myself. I said something to the extent of "better than boring yourself to death..." But it was cool, 'cause she does exactly the same thing and just said she didn't know many others like that. Huh. Interesting world.

*back to work*

*or rather, off to start work...*

... you are strange, I concur.
