An excerpt from an actual conversation I had with Greg yesterday:
Me: *upon receiving a rare bouquet of flowers from my husband* "Wow! Umm...what are these for?"
Him: "Because you've been good."
Me: *referring to his promotion, which will have him up in Toronto overnight several times in the coming weeks* "Are you sure these aren't 'goodwill insurance' flowers for when you start cheating on me?"
Him: "Maybe I've already cheated and these are 'guilt flowers'!"
Me: *referring to the fact that the flowers are carnations* "Naaah...'guilt flowers' are grand. Like roses or stargazers."
Him: "Maybe I'm not that sorry."
Yeah, he thinks he's SO funny. ;-)
In other news it SNOWED like crazy around here last night, sort of. Two feet of snow just to the south of where we live, almost a foot up north of where we live. But right here...only about 2 inches fell. Enough to pretty-up the snow we already had but not enough to shovel. Maybe I'll make a trip back to Angola tomorrow so Kiba can jump around in two feet of snow (i've never seen that!).
I'm working on some cute little masks. Nothing amazing (to me); they're just little half masks with dragons on 'em (I draw them freehand so each one is unique...but they really only take a short time to make so I sell them pretty cheap). I'm doing them in really bright colors though, this time. Usually they're black with brightly colored dragons, but this time I'm making the dragons white & gold & silver, and the masks are bright solid colors like red and blue. I think they're kind of neat! I've been working in bright colors lately...it's refreshing.
I'll take pictures later, when they're dry.
