thank yous, nightsweats and noseeums

thank you everyone that told me where they got their paper/envelope slitters, apparently STAPLES also carries them ( aren't you all proud of me, that one i found on my own after you folks told me what these things were called, cause 'coupon cutter' didn't get me anywhere)
i intend on getting a few of them

i also intend on putting a few in a small gift wrap center i want to make, as i am always having issues with wrapping cookie trays and gift bags/boxes for bernie to take to work
(and i used to have tons of problems when i was packaging product for my soap/toiletries company)

i intend on this to fit right behind the slip of wall in the living room/kitchen area, and i intend that it rolls so i can bring it into the studio or kitchen when i need to
if thaddeaus wasn't so into cardboard as a cat snack i would make it out of that and cover it with fabric or something
i got spare wheels all over the house
but since he thinks cardboard IS cat popcorn, i have to either use plastic or metal

now nightsweats and noseeums they just both gotta go

picture it
2am
covered in bites, even my EARS
sweating like a fire hose was on me
my head so hot i SWEAR i could fry eggs

not a pretty picture

it wasn't any where NEAR as much fun as it sounds like either

you know
i am beginning to really really hate summer
really

HATE

SUMMER


also last night, bernie lost the screw to the side of his glasses, so today i am going to order him another pair as back up
he DID fix them
didn't FIND the original screw but he should be ok
meanwhile i am going to order him another pair or two
( at those online prices, he can have two)

oye
meanwhile
all this without benefit of coffee
which should be ready now
i think after all the blood i lost last night
i need extra fluids today

i hate summer

vi
