Not really a scrapbooker

Leave a Comment

Jut a quick little font look-see (yup, the routine thing), and I wandered over to Fonts For Peas. Her site is a myriad of intertwined subjects, one of which is scrapbooking. You gotta see her scrapbook room. Not only is it a virtual warehouse of scrapbooking supplies, but the technique of displaying the photos on the page is pretty cool. Not to mention her organizantional skills — which even if she did so for the camera, the stuff is still organized, regardless. Dang.

So. Did anyone watch it? No, not Phelps, although that was amazing. Woodstock. I still have CSNY Wooden Ships playing in my head. Now that hubby turned that damn kitchen t.v. off, I’ll put this one on. That’s another story…

yippee skippeee

Man, why the hot flash all of a sudden? Hey, know what I just discovered? Our televisions have had the picture-in-picture capabilities forever, but because of our cable box, could never utilize it. So I’m thinkin’, hmmm, how am I going to watch what I’ve been looking forward to watching for the last 72 hrs and still see Phelps do his thing tonite? Yup, tried out the PIP and it works now! Must be the digital cable thing that makes it possible, ya think? I know, but it’s the little things in life.

I’ve also been putzin’ around FMG the last couple of nites, and as is customary when I do something new, I send out a brief little email to my peoples. Now, I’ve had a mailing list with NotifyList for-Ever. Their site itself hasn’t been updated in at least 5 yrs, but it has continued to work. Alas, I think it finally died. Never did get my own copy of the email that I sent out 2 nites ago. Bummer. As you can imagine, after having visitors sign up for the last… 7-9 yrs or so, I had quite a mailing list. But, on the bright side, I’m sure many, many, many of the email addresses are long gone, so I’ll just start over.

I’m also a teeny-tiny on the verge of redoing FMG… eh, maybe not. Lotsa work. Plus, last time I lost everything, I had to just do the main pag — nevermind! Gotta GO – it’s ON!

Craigslist

That’s something else I never used to do – visit Craigslist.

So, I was just looking around, and found an ad for some old Kaleidoscope newspapers. Kaleidoscope was our underground paper in the late 60s in Milwaukee, and I kinda-sorta remember them… ok, so I’m pretty familiar with them – hey, I was 15 in ’69, happy now?

Anyway, so I called the guy, he told me what he was asking, and I said, “ok, thanks.” After I came down from the clouds, I thought, “what the hell am I going to do with ’em? Just for a trip down memory lane?” I just get so caught up in that stuff sometimes, ya know? Although I did call him back and told him if he couldn’t sell them to call me back.

I don’t know whether you remember the last time I talked about something similar. Robert Crumb’s infamous “Keep on Truckin'” guy (KOT) and how when I had one on my old cutless my dad thought it stood for “Keep on F*ckin” (ya, he was a sicko). ANYway, my gal-friend in Alaska surprised me with an Or-i-gin-al KOT bumper sticker, which I still wear on my car proudly, although it has gotten a little faded.

Keep on Truckin' Dude!

Sooo, maybe he won’t sell them and I’ll get the newspapers and take a little trip, hmm? I’ll let you know what happens.

As long as I’m revealing a few of my compulsive behaviors, another daily OC is before I open Photoshop in the a.m., I must check MyFonts to see if there’s anything new and exciting that I need to add to my little congregation of fonts. Every day. Lately there hasn’t been a heck of a lot of newness that hasn’t been seen, at least in part, in another font. I mean, at what point does one never need another font for the rest of their lives? Besides, just about the time that something appeals to me and it actually gets as far as sitting in my shopping cart, at least I’m wise enough now to double check in the STC browser whether I either have it already or something similar, and lo and behold, there it is!

So. I guess I’m set for life. But you know I still have to check to make sure. Right?

How could I forget!!

KittyKitty isn't inhalingOMG. 3 days from now. Are you aware of the significance of that day(s) in history? (of course I know that most of my readers are). Yup, 39, THIRTY-NINE people, years ago was Woodstock.

I’m so excited because once again VH1-classic will air the original movie, Saturday & Sunday. I guess next year for the 40th Anniversary, Warner Home Video is planning the Ultimate Collectors Edition DVD of the event ($$$). Groovy.

Anyway. Peaces n’ Luv. Swimming is starting now.
