...he's gonna want a glass of milk

a phone call i had three minutes ago on the topic of yeast infections ended like this:

me: "well you can get thrush of the MOUTH."
her: "oh." ... "is that the end of the conversation?"

[and invariably whenever i mention thrush that belle & sebastian "lazy line painter jane" lyric always comes to mind: tossing a coin to decide whether you should tell your folks about a dose of thrush you got while you were licking railings.]


my ipod's gone a little haywire again, so i've begrudgingly traveled back to the dinosaur age, popping in cds to sleep to every night, which got me listening to the dirty three, which got me thinking about the dirty three, which got me thinking about the dirty three live, which got me thinking about the dirty three playing "sue's last ride" live, which got me poking around the internet. it's a if you give a mouse a cookie [the children's book that provides the BEST metaphor for so many things in life] kinda thing. ya know?

found out the other day that there are three! yarn stores in birmingham, michigan. hampton mills up on old woodward is stunning with tons of rowan yarns, project kits and a clean, white, not overwhelming [important!] setup. there's also the knitting room and right off the sheep, which i believe have both been around much longer than hampton mills [surfing the wave of today's knitting craze, right?], who have only been around for seven months. seven months! my favorite yarn store is definitely still cityknits in detroit's new center area in the fisher building. have you any wool? in berkley has my favorite name, but not my heart, as they have what i call too many "flashy" yarns there. after last night's killer [as in KILL] working spree, i'm lazy today, having not set an alarm, having breakfasted on knibs of molasses cookies, having not typed one report yet and soon feasting on the red coat tavern's french onion soup and scooping up some yarn at hampton mills for an xmas project/gift/determined-to-finished-item.
