This afternoon is playing all the LPs I haven't listened to yet.

This one I bought without knowing what or who but it just looked interesting. I lolled and lolled when I heard it. It's old tv music.

Huh. For years I've wanted to know what that piece was!

It's also the theme to the Red Skelton Show. I grew up watching that. ๐Ÿ˜Š

all my records are sounding crackly because of the dry air from the heating

Does anyone have any idea what to use a really tiny funnel for? I apparently misjudged scale on these ones and they are about the width of my fingernail ๐Ÿคฃ. I have three of them!

Anti-gratitude thread

Took me half an hour to find a parking spot at uni. Also been very irritable lately. Just wanna feel neutral and calm and at peace. It's a battle.

Yeah I've already spilled my guts. See below.

Still feeling shitty about my (deserved but painful) $200 fine, that was going to go to the dentist... I'm going to ask for a payment plan to soften the blow.

Pakige!

Finally arrived. A few thing a bit dodgy that I might return, but mostly looks pretty good. I'm very impressed by the cross stitch kits - stamped patterns have come a long way, these are all really clearly marked square by square, the ones I remember from years ago were horrible to work with because you had to make a lot of guesses about which colour to use for all the stitches where two colours joined. Given that these kits were mostly around $3-$4 they are amazing - some include an embroidery hoop, and one has a pair of thread cutters as well.

Now I need to go through all the various hemming tapes and things and make sure I know what everything is.

The universe must have been listening about my over-ordering of sticky tape because it seems to have been missed.
