Before the tour started, she kept saying she couldn't. Then as the tour went on, she started coming around, little by little. I think it's up to a "maybe" now. When you see her, bug her about it.

I was just talking to a friend who lives near Belfast, and he's actually a huge country music fan, not rock, but he was even going on about how excited people were about U2's upcoming Dublin Concert :hyper:

Hometown shows are so cool!

Hi SG

I'm lucky to have seen them in Ireland in 1997 on Popmart Tour & at Slane in 2001. They are always awesome shows... I'm so excited :hyper:

Could be better, could be worse. (Nothing bad has happened, but I had a string of really vivid nightmares this morning and forced myself to wake up to get out of them... then I was all tired and dizzy for the longest time because of the way I woke up :madspit:

not the best way to start a day :no:

)

thanks for asking. How's your day?

Wild I'm so unbelievably jealous that you were there for the Slane gig. And so unbearably happy for you at the same time. It's a strange balance, being a PLEBAn

It's been average. Got more html work done, and now I'm waiting for my advisor to e-mail me back regarding one of the measures we're using. Can't finish it till I get word from him.

Oh...first thing this morning, I walked down my front steps, and there to greet me was the corpse of a mouse. :yikes:

Probably that damned cat from next door...the one who always walks across my freshly cleaned and waxed black car, leaving kitty footprints. :madspit:

I really don't have good luck with cats...

Kitty footprints :cute:

I know it's annoying to most people, especially when they take all that time to wash and wax the car... but I always get little warm fuzzies and giggles when I see things like that. Cat's are too funny. I swear they know exactly what they are doing, too

** Congrats on the work you're getting done! And I understand the frustration of having to wait around for someone else in order to be able to finish something.

gotta go pick up Sarah...today is her last day of school before exams...means soon I'll be able to sleep in. :drool:

back in a bit. :hug:

Sad_Girl · Jun 21, 2005

Bye VP; I actually gotta go too, just stopped in to say hello while I checked my E-mail. be back in a few hours guys :wave:

Before I go, I've been wondering all day if the mouse was the cat's attempt to leave me a "gift," trying to win me over....or a great big "fuck you" from the cat to me, cause it knows I hate it. :lol:

Okay, I was telling you both the other night about the FMS thing, and that she was having further testing done. She went to her doc today, and it appears it's not FMS, but rheumatoid arthritis...I'm not sure of all the medical terms, but the blood test they do to check for it was apparently off the charts. However, the joint swelling wasn't as bad as the blood test would indicate. I was just reading webmd.com, and they said that elevated blood levels without the major swelling can be due to lupus.

Should I be freaking out?? Her doc booked her in to see a specialist...either later this week or next.

NOT YET, if you can help it, sweetie :hug:

-- wait till they get more definitive results.........

And I think either illness may have some complimentry/alternate/holistic health care that can help. more :hug:

s, VP

Well I don't do other peoples patterns anymore. I pretty much draw whatever I see in my head or what the general idea is and then make a pattern on blank newspaper from there.

So the other night I was praying for the London gigs, cuz I was really worried about their being problems and worried about how many people were going to be there. So when I was praying I got this image in my head of 2 huge angels hovering over the stadium. Just being there watching over the whole thing. I haven't been able to get it out of my head. So last night I drew a quick sketch.

So what the final thing became is 4 guitars laying down. 2 electric and 2 acuoustic with 2 angels flying over them. The problem is the angels have to look transparent. There is a technique that is called "ghosting" where instead of making the angels out of seperate fabric and laying them on top of the guitars. I have to actually merge them with the guitars in the fabric.

So if the guitar is red where the angel intersects you might use pink or a very pale red on the part of the angel that is covering. Its a long involved process, which I'm probably totally nuts for trying to do.

does sound lovely....just put on great music and take your time.!
