anything fair?

apparently though the people who live in the apartment below me think that their yelling and screaming and fighting and repeated slamming of doors is appropriate at the wee hours of the morning, they have decided that MY noisy leather work is NOT appropriate at ANY time of day, even at, oh, in the afternoon when MOST people are awake....

last night or this morning they put a note under my door asking that I refrain from pounding before 5pm because they work third shift... so ok, no problem, I can comply to that... so I even waited for a few minutes after 5 to start so it didn't look like some sort of "statement"... but despite that, the guy comes upstairs and asks me to refrain. um... NO. I'm way the hell over in the back corner away from the bedrooms and living room as it is, I'm doing what I can do attempt to keep the noise from carrying down through the floor...

well at least this project is closing in on finished... making the holes is the loudest pounding. Rivets I can do on my lap... and is there anything much quieter than hand stitching with lacing? Not really, there isn't even a sharp needle with which to poke myself!

makes me smile



I smile every time I see this commercial, probably mostly because the nonchalant bear eating the sandwich looks like my friend Spot

in your FACE... book

I'm over on FaceBook now and I actually like it. MySpace was kinda useless in my opinion because to FIND anyone you had to know their clever screen name. Over on facebook, I'm actually FINDING people... I had a couple friend requests just sitting in my e-mail for months... now that I have an account, I've been able to find people through other people... and on and on... it's actually USEFUL! WOO!
