Saint Patty’s Day 2014

This is a great song Broken Spoke Plays.

It was another great St. Patty’s Day this year!

This year, I got the word out to about 250 different people using the meetups. We didn’t all hang out in one place, but I talked to many people, and they all had a blast!

A lot of us just danced the night away! I’ll just let the pictures talk!

This girl threw herself at me
This was the other girl’s best friend. They weren’t from around here.
Heather & friend
JJ made it out, and Holli didn’t suck (as much as usual)!
Chad had a lot of fun!
The pretty-sounding type!
There were bagpipes!
I'm told there girls were super cute.
That is Serena and her friend Karen, I’m not sure who the other guy is.
I met these people at Kierran’s before anyone arrived. They were pretty cool!
Broken Spoke themselves – that was an awesome show for them! So packed!

New Song

Well, I never heard it before, but I occasionally hear songs that are new to me since I started listening to 108 more frequently.

Great song. I just found it odd that I haven’t heard it before.

Have a fancy Friday! I am! HH then a dance / Irish music party at my friend’s ballroom in St. Paul!

So busy but having tons of fun always!

Manly Domestic Debacle

Well, this is “handy-ish”, but it’s more along the “crafty” sort of thing.

I had several sewing repaid kits scattered throughout my travel bags, nightstand, ironing board-type area, etc. I decided to buy a sewing box.
In the store, much to my dismay, all the sewing boxes were, well, not manly:

Not Manly
Downright girly

So I improvised:

Manly Sewing Kit!
(tackle box)

Next came the whole reason for my domestic distraction:

Ugly and beyond my experience

I had no idea what to do. I just did what I always do: make it up!

Dress pins? This is not dress, but I think it’ll work!

Let’s see. I’ll just do a simple stitch:

And tying a knot every couple inches so the whole thing doesn’t unravel if a thread broke.

And Voila!

I surprise myself!

Next story is how I cleaned my chimney….

Just kidding – I called someone for that 🙂
