Happy day today!!!!!! We got cable Internet and I can’t get over how much quicker everything is. I must really have a lot of GEEK in me to be so excited over a faster computer but I just can’t help it. It makes me want to skim from page to page just so I can watch. Must have some voyeur in me after all.
We have a new salon opening in town in two weeks and Allison hooked up about ten of us to go get free cuts and whatever else we want. It’s all part of the grand opening and we will be there to show what they can do and how good they are. I agreed to get a dye job and maybe some chunks of color put in. Izzy, another friend is getting his hair tye dyed, and Jacque is going completely blue. I hope it’s a pretty electric blue instead of a dull washed out blue. Me, I really do need to stay kind of middle of the road. While I love to look at all the rest I have a lot meetings and others business related stuff so I should at least look like people can trust and believe what I say. That might be hard to do when they see a women my age walk in with pink hair. I think I’ll leave it for the younger generation and just have other fun with them.
In other news I’m getting funny vibes from the woman in charge of the Main Street Group. She and I were both up for the same job and she got it, I told everyone that I wouldn’t quit if I didn’t get the job and I won’t. But I think in some ways she still sees me as a rival in some kind of competition. Truth told the way things worked out with Barry’s job I’m glad I didn’t get hired. I’m busy enough with what I do and I don’t need more on my plate right now.
Barry got me a hand held sand blaster for my glass etching, if I get any good at all I’ll try to post a picture. I have the first design laid out now all I have to do is finish. It’s nerve wracking though. I picked a dark blue wine bottle and made a sun template over it, I’m still trying to work out the quarter moons on the neck of the bottle. If it doesn’t turn out horrible I’ll make it into an incense burner. The hardest part of the whole thing is cutting the templates on the bottles…eeerrrgggg!!!
Well, that’s all for now I hope everyone has had as good a day as I have. It’s about time and we all need it now and again.

The bad part is….when the cable modem takes a shit and you have to go BACK to dial up. Then you really see how bad it is.
Forgot to answer your question….Kasey Chambers is pretty big in Australia, but I can’t say much about The Waifs since I’ve never heard of them, which probably answers your question anyway!
Yay for cable internet! I’m having so many problems at the moment with my dial-up…but I think it’s the phone line and not my internet provider which is at fault. Oh well, it will get sorted out eventually!
I’d love to see a photo of your etching! Good luck!
