Friday, I took Bunny and Fairy out for dinner. Dragon China, their choice. And then we went to the Galleria. They got t-shirts from the Disney store. Bunny's has Dory from Finding Nemo on it. Fairy's had Tigger. We got some earrings at Claires. I couldn't find a Lost Desert Aisha plushie to add to my hat anywhere.
Saturday, after work, we watched Teen Angst Specials (they were Afterschool Specials when I was a kid). One hosted by Samuel L. Jackson about Middle School. I had Obi watch it with Bunny and me. They covered Bullying, Depression, Drugs, Sex and Sexual Orientation. Bunny got a great comeback to use against some of the girls who are giving her grief. (For every incident she tells me of, I know there are a dozen more she doesn't.) Obi was kind of freaking out. He's only 10, but some of those kids were barely 12. The quote I find most interesting, "Oral sex has nothing to do with me, or my body." I also told Bunny there was a GLBT youth center in Memphis, and she said she'd like to visit.
Then we watched Thirteen. I suspect there will be many talks in weeks to come as we process.
I practiced drawing. Luke came out fine until I hit his face. He's got a weird face. Good-looking, but hard to draw. His upper lip is very long without looking like it, and his ANH nose is odd, and it only gets worse.
I ran out of claret yarn. I'm crocheting a Celtic spiral afghan for MWC. It's coming nicely, I'm about 1/3 of the way done. I also have the Scissor-Keeper mostly stitched in black and red.
Mudd went out for pop very late. And I wondered why it was taking him 45 minutes. He got stuck. Between the shelves, reaching for the last carton of pop. He has a bruise across his chest from it.
Can anyone point me to full screen, digital source for SW? My vids all look like I'm channelling El Greco through a pixelation filter.
