I was at Ben’s but couldn’t connect to his internet. It used to connect automatically. But not this time. I’m not sure why not. I called him at work to ask the password, but it didn’t work for me. Oh well. I had just called to ask the password to get into his apartment, so I didn't want to call yet a third time! I'd already taken him away from work for awhile!

It was a good thing, though because instead I worked on my gourd.

So I soaked my in the kitchen sink, then sat on the balcony with a butter knife and scraped off the outermost layer of cells while Fluffy watched.

I had the wood burner tool and wrote between the bumps, a little sentence. ‘This is my 1st.’

I made eyes and a mouth. It’s going to be a dragon looking into back over his back and into a basket. I’m going to take the top off his back when he’s lying down, coil pine needles around and around until they go over his head, thus leaving his head inside the new basket! What a cool idea! A dragon.
