isn’t that great?!\u00c2\u00a0 it totally cracked me up.\u00c2\u00a0 i was also amused by the ads that gmail chose to post alongside it (sterilized owl pellets?\u00c2\u00a0 poison dart frogs?\u00c2\u00a0 fetal pigs??!).<\/div>\n

the other delightful thing that happened today was that i finally finished piecing my car quilt<\/a> top!<\/div>\n

the weather is getting nice enough that i can enjoy spending a lunch break in my car or sitting in the grass and i’ve finally gotten all of my quilt blocks (thanks fellow common threaders–they’re all great!), so motivation has increased and the result is a finished top.\u00c2\u00a0 now, just the back, the quilting and the binding.\u00c2\u00a0 sigh.<\/div>\n
