Drive-by blogging

Can't stop now, must clear my desk, must pack my suitcase, must get instructions to cat-sitters, must find new sandals. . . .

Just wanted to stop by in the midst of pre-vacation frenzy to share a few tidbits with you and to let you know that we aren't dead, just lazy and vacation-driven:

-Cynical and I typically eat out on Friday night; but a beautiful, warm Friday afternoon gave us an opportunity to dine outside on a veranda overlooking the river. Afterward we visited a new coffee shoppe downtown and I think I may have found heaven on earth. Such great coffee, such a great feeling to the place and a courtyard. Move over public library, this is my new favorite place.

-Watched "Lars and the Real Girl" over the weekend and loved it, loved it, loved it. It's a quirky, quiet movie. Enough said, rent it at your own risk.

-Did I tell you that I am going to the Loopy Ewe in St. Louis as part of our vacation? I've been frantically selling old stash yarn on Ravelry to make cashola just for this stop.

-Still no sale on the house, but a little interest. I am putting the whole house selling business in a box and putting it away until we get back from vacation.


Ragged. Out.
