200 channels and nothing on

for real! seriously, 200 channels and nothing on. as a "non-single home alone on the weekend" woman i find itvery depressing to not be able to find anything on tv and ON DEMAND
worth watching. yes there are lots of movies available but none that i want to see that's under 90 minutes. which brings me to an observation. is it just me or are the movie studios making longer
movies. i mean it seems like all the "new" movies are like over 2 hours. do they think that the longer the movies are the more artful they may be? hmmmmm...well there not.



well i spent a nice but humid day at my best friend lori's and her husband david's house with my other best friend david and his wife heather dying silk. we had a dye day. too bad i don't have a digital camera cause we made some really cool pieces. i made a really nice piece by clamping large washers onto folded fabric. and since the fun part of dying fabric is the surprise outcome i was wonderfully happy
about that clamping piece. it ended up looking like flowers.


dying fabric is not for those with type A personalities. but would be good practice for them. there isn't a lot of control in dying fabric. the dyes run, if the just dyed vibrant purple fabric touches another
part of the fabric that you don't want vibrant purple it turns vibrant purple anyway and there isn't anything you can do about it. you could not have enough resist in the fabric and everything you wanted white isn't white anymore but one solid color of yellow. but i like it. however, since i can sometimes fall into the type A demographic i still try to control but the the chaotic side just try's to let go and let goddess.



hey it looks like "license to grill" with hottie host rob rainford is on with all of his jamaican canadian goodness. could this mean that things are looking up on the tv front?

Hey there Tracey. As you foray into the world of writing blogs, I'm just beginning to read them. Never seen such....feels kinda funny reading other folks' thoughts. But oh, so cool too. Guess it's the whole "I'm not the only one who thinks that way" kind of thing. Except about the 200 channels and nothing on bit....looks like my not having cable is something i shouldn't miss. :)
Happy writing!
