I left work the other evening, coming out of the library into an icy rain, glad for my new umbrella and happy at the prospect of a quiet evening at home. I made a bit of supper and ate it while . . . more

That's a great idea. I do it all the time with my coats and anything else I can get away with. I'm going to be stretching it a bit in August, I think, when I fly from Istanbul to Lisbon with my winter coat on (I'm not coming back until November), but I'll just tell them that it's always so cold on the plane. I was really worried about it a couple of months ago when I was flying home with about 8 selfic bracelets and other selfica on me... they look like they're all hooked up with electrical wires and little globes filled with mysterious liquids. Good thing I wasn't passing through the US. Good luck with your scarves... maybe a few up your sleeves... if you can manage to sneak a rabbit in your hat, you'll have my undying admiration. :)

Carolion, I posted a photo of a flyer that's going around here. If you'd like a printable copy, let me know. I will be scanning the flyer tomorrow at work and would be happy to send YS library the file.

Hi Carolion- thanks for the advanced notice. I know we'll be going the second weekend for street fair. Not sure what Wil's work schedule will be in Oct., but he makes sure he has street fair Saturday off. I would love to be in YS more. I feel comfortable there.

Wil and I only get to YS a couple times a year, but we usually stop in the library to see what books are for sale. We're geeky like that - go to a different city, check out the library...

Hello! I didn't realize you are in YS! I was so upset to miss Street Fair this year! I should be there in Oct. though.

Thank you Carolion, your informations about Ganges River-Dolphins are absolutely right; though the implementation is yet to be prperly shaped out.

thanks for alerting me about the bad link, Carolion. I've replaced it now. I think healing is a long long road with these core issues. I have done several different types of healing and gotten relief but the residue still keeps me from a romantic relationship. Otherwise, it doesn't seem to bother me, but boy it jumps up when I choose a partner, who always seems to be hypercritical (just like mom.) sigh....
