Something no one knows about me (until now) is I like wandering around craft stores and looking at fabric and patterns. I am not much of a sewer (although I imagine I could be if I so desired), but I just love looking at different kinds of fabric (especially the “special occasion” ones). Dork. I know.

After I got home from perusing brocades and taffetas, I checked my email which held my current credit card bill. Then I…paid off the balance. Seriously. It made me a little giddy. New Year’s resolution number two: complete.

I spent most of the rest of today finishing up the primering of all of my apartment walls. I did my whole bedroom and some touch-ups. Ugh. That’s finally over.

Anyway, now I am relaxing…with some cosmopolitans. Come on over and join me! Just excuse the mess, I’m packing.

1I learned a new word today: cloy (to be too filling, rich, or sweet).

Despite living in a sewer, Maura is quite cloy.

You are not a dork. Going to the craft stores and actually PURCHASING the fabric and the patterns when you DON’T know how to sew and, while you own a sewing machine, you don’t know how to operate it and have never actually had it out of its box….now THAT’S a dork.
