About Me
I've been a bit busy, but I'll be getting really bored over the summer, so you can expect more writings. Personally, I'm a little off my rocker. Hugs and Kisses to ya'll.

Yes, I'm ranting again
I. Officially. Hate. Velcro. The idiot who invented it should be drawn and quartered and have his head put atop a pike in front of the Congress building as a warning to all people who want to invent something 'useful'.In the first place, velcro never works. It slips at the slightest disturbance, and over time the loopy side gets so much fuzz in it that it doesn't cling to the fuzzy side anymore. But that's only enough to ignore it. No, it gets worse. Because the only way to sew on velcro is to machine-stitch it. Adhesives just slide right off of the back. No needle is sharp enough to penetrate the thick backing when wielded by hand. Which leaves my greatly loved sewing machine.
Do you know what happens when you machine stitch velcro? The thread gets caught and snaps. Every. Single. Time. Maybe if you're lucky, you'll have gotten it securely sewn after re-threading the machine's needle about fifty times.
The good news is that I finished my costume, so I can look the part of Darth Buttercup on Halloween. The bad news is that I'm now going to go remove the fuzzy velcro sides in exchange for either snaps or buttons because I can't get the loopy sides sufficiently secure.
For once I'm actually excited about something political. Sarah Palin is freaking AWESOME! Normally I avoid the news and wonder how a country could produce so many idiots. I detest politics and politicians, but Palin is actually exciting, like no one else in the race has been from the beginning. Okay, the dude who thought he'd been abducted by aliens was exciting, but in the wrong way. It made me laugh when the media asked for a paternity test on the Down Syndrome kid. It was the most ridiculous thing I'd heard since Girl's Camp.
