infinity and beyond...

today was a day to mark in history. colors dazzled my senses. all five of them (well, maybe not taste...side track...have you ever thought of how colors would feel? yellow would be downy and soft like a baby chick or duck. red would be hard, metalic feeling, blue would be like a pillow..done side tracking now.)

i went into mary jo's cloth store for the first time today and boy did i have the time of my life. raw silk, LINEN, tapestry, dan smith the registrar (actually he isn't the registrar any more, but say dan smith the registrar. it just flows off the tongue. like bacon and eggs, or penut butter and jelly. they can't be separated.) but dan smith was there. he was wearing a suit looking spiffy as usual. what he was doing in mary jo's is a hay day for the immagination.

back to the point. i bought a grand total of 8 yards of linen today. proud? yes. i am. beautiful. much better price than hancocks. i highly recommend it.

we also popped into a bernina sewing machine store where i came inches away from my first in-debt experience. i think i am going to do it. a beautiful machine. it had my name written all over it, i swear.

but for all you faithful people out there i do have some news about health related issues. i had my CAT scan today at nine this morning (no there were no dogs, and no mice). there was a slight difficulty cause for some odd reason this time i reacted to the x-ray dye. my eye swelled up and was burning like nobody's business for a while. it was very odd. but next time (Lord willing, there won't be a next time) i will have to go on steriroids the day before cause for some reason my body decided not to like the dye anymore.

also something kinda scary happened in the bernina store. my nose started bleeding. it has kinda been bleeding on and off for a while, but it just took off today. so pray everything works out ok. i don't have any of my other test results back, but i will keep everyone updated.

thanks for your prayers, and mary jo, you da' bomb!

hey hill! (can i call you hill? maybe i should start more formally--hey hillary!) i know you don't know me (i think), but i just wanted to let you know i pray for you every time i read a new entry from you, including this one. i guess it's kind of a weird Christian dynamic, praying for people you don't really know, but i think part of ben's grand scheme in luring us to write on bensfriends was to encourage such activity.

anyway, now that i'm hooked i'm glad for the update.

and i even know where and what mary jo's is. i've even been there. for lengthy periods of time. (it's one of those pre-marriage rituals, i think. kind of a rite of passage for guys. maybe that explains the dan smith the registrar phenomenon.)
