Missssscellaneous

To answer comments from "yesterday", I agree - I want to hear all these favorite songs too! The Fantasticks?

And speaking of having vivid memories of music one's parents used to play all the time - for me it would be "Jesus Christ Superstar" played on an old reel-to-reel tape. I was VERY young and impressionable - I used to sing along and try to act it out. So embarrassing. And of course there was the Beatles on reel-to-reel as well - "I am the walrus. goo goo ka chuub." WTF? Frickin hippies. (I mean that in the nicest way possible.)


I finished my first week at the new job and so far so good. I could tell you all about my job responsibilities and the people I'll be working with, but I'd rather tell you about my office and two windows that actually open and the big tree right outside the window!!! And every Friday is "wear whatever you want as long as it's not a halter top and short shorts" day!! They tell me they also had to ban tank tops for men because of a very hairy former employee who would wear a tank top on Fridays. Evidently all the hair was distracting to the women. I'll say - reflexive dry heaving does make it hard to get through a business phone call.

I finally finished my deadly socks of doom and fired them at Calgary this morning. I hope she likes them, but just in case I put some goodies in the box with them. I did take pictures but the camera is all the way across the room and I'd have to stand up and stuff. I'll post pics eventually.

There's a fungus among us:


This was orange-er (more orange?) in real life and about the size of a basketball. About 6 feet up on a tree near the beaver ponds. I went back a week later and now it's all shriveled up and white.

RHINEBECK IN ONE WEEK!!!!! All sock yarn will fear me.
