"Unusually-named toy doll sets"

From boingboing:

"I was in a children's store today and my friend pointed out these doll sets from Plan Toys, a company that actually makes very good toys. The choices are "Asian Family," um, "Ethnic Family," and, er, "Doll Family."'


Oh jeez.

my hair and my ID badge

Me and Sophia are getting haircuts tomorrow. Hers is long like mine except longer and different. I got my official ID badge and I'm really excited about it, partly because it says I'm a "Contractor", which I am absolutely not.





Today I learned how to use tiny pry bars to pull off a picture rail - a long piece of wood that meets the top of the wallpaper and the bottom of the frieze, that has a rolled groove/edge on the top to allow the hanging of big oil paintings of deceased plantation owners, relatives, etc. Tomorrow will be more of the same and more!

Oh! And with my ID badge I get into any museum in the country, for free.

Hello, Goodbye

My last view of Belfast on my drive out on Thursday.

Bon Voyage!

We had going-away drinks and played pool last night. I totally bashed my knuckles on the pool table at th end of the night and they tore open and bled! Tamara took the picture. I'll probably miss this place more than I think, but I know it's time to leave.

Blacksmithing and motorcycles

On Saturday I hung out with Alan, who works on our cars and has recently learned blacksmithing. I watched him work for a while, and when he was finished he gave me the product - a steel hook with a leaf on one end. He drilled a hole in it using a powerless drill that was probably 100 years old. I really went over there to look at his motorcycle, which I'm trying not to buy with my tax refund. Tell me not to do it. Tell me to do it.
