I'm still waiting for you to send <I>yourself</I> out as well.<BR/><BR/>Lela - you reminded me of my favorite jeans when I was little - they were cut-off jean shorts with about an inch of fringe that my mom meticulously made by pulling out the horizontal threads. I liked to swish it back and forth.KBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10155513588440910188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13535937.post-21860772973495324552008-05-16T11:09:00.000-07:002008-05-16T11:09:00.000-07:00hi-- i remember that book ! glad you still have it...hi-- i remember that book ! glad you still have it...i have one of those bizarre collections of stuff to mail to you again. will get it on its way soon...love, annetteAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13535937.post-73092809924915874382008-05-16T10:55:00.000-07:002008-05-16T10:55:00.000-07:00Man, I used to have a pair of jeans with a rainbow...Man, I used to have a pair of jeans with a rainbow embroidered on the butt when I was 8. I LOVED those jeans and wore them until they were floods. If I could sew, that's the first thing I'd do, put a rainbow on my jeans.

I was watching an episode of 30 rock and when Tina Fey exclaimed to her boss that her staffed had eaten food gone bad and had "blorched" all night, I lost it! I told my husband later that the reason I love when people make up words and use them seriously is thta it means they are really trying to express themselves as opposed to spouting clichés.<BR/>So you're fighting the good fight! Keep on expressing, you make some neat stuff.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
