Jeff Dunham is coming to Worcester Saturday September 6th.

This is by far, the greatest of all the Rethink Design Saturn Ads.

Thank you from the bottom of my still giggling heart Laura Bennett!

Awww. Estelle Getty died. Damn.

One fine day Dougie Howser became a super villain, Howard Wolowitz became very damp and Captain Tight Pants learned to fly..... and then they all sang a bunch.

Good news everyone! For once this week I am not covered in paste!

Bad news, this is the list of stuff I have to get finished:

• A dress
• A new chemise
• Melon Balls
• Dying hair
• Tablecloth
• Washing garb
• Washing feast gear
• Call my Uncle Rick
• Call my cousin Josh
• Make scones

And I'm only working 10 hours today so of course this is all still possible....


In other news: THE PLAN

I am working til 8 on Thursday w/ Rachel. Then she and I are going to her house to nap and then head out. We'll pick up Julie probably around 2 AM, then head to Mali's and leave from there. That should put us on site around 8 AM. We'll set up and then it will be major nap time. I also realize now there will be an extra person in the car, so we probably should have sent blankets off with Bridget. C'est la vie. It will be tight.

Bridget will be picking Elinor up from the boat around 9/10 AM in Portsmouth and heading north. Bridget will also be dropping Elinor off at the boat come Sunday.

Warren will be making his own way in the world to Hebron, but will return with Julie on Sunday.

If anyone could pick up regular lamp oil for the two silver lanterns I'd appreciate it.

**** The GNEW Pool will be open **** Bring your suits. And a towel.
