Unboxing 5 Gum! (with homemade music)

oh.

I was listening to NPR's coverage of Michael Jackson this morning and there was one story about the large crowd of fans assembled outside the hospital.

The power of obscene wealth to destroy a man, ...

... Thursday, and worked 6-8 hours each on Saturday and Sunday too. Fun. But the night before it all started I went to see Neko Case at the Warfield. Great show as usual. She now has homemade films that are vaguely related to the songs playing behind her, which was interesting. However, while her newer albums are still great, the farther we get from Blacklisted , it means she plays fewer songs from...

weekend in Michigan

... there's a huge garden in the front. I slept in a former bedroom that had been converted into an art studio. On Monday I met with a bookbinder who had a Ludlow machine that I got to see in action. Then I hung out with my librarian friend J. and came home today. It was a relaxing weekend with fantastic weather but I'm glad to be back home. I get to taste my homemade soda pop in a couple of days.

... one day. Mmm, candy books. Not actually as great as some of hers, actually, this one really did feel like hard candy, one of those flavors you like but really aren't thrilled about, instead of homemade fudge or something.

Homemade G&L sizing

It's been awhile since I used these and can't remember how the sizing works. Can anyone confirm for me that the bust/waist measurements given for the sizes are accurate?
