Apologies to those who saw this already, but there's quite a few people on my friends list who aren't on Sir's, so I thought I try to get him a few more responses. It's a survey on attitudes about privacy policies in e-commerce sites, and the relevant links can be found here. Thanks!
I will now also note that the 'random' feature on Windows Media Player *isn't*. Obvious preferences, as in how many freakin' times do I have to listen to two Aerosmith songs?
The house has finally reached a state where maitaining it only takes at couple hours a day, at most. One would think this would result in my diving into any/all of the numerous creative projects I've been back-burnering for weeks now, but one would be wrong. I'm just feeling pretty generically uninspired, nothing capturing my attention. I'm fairly certain that will shift soon, I think it's just a matter of the sudden shock, going from running around like a hamster in a wheel to having substantial free time, kind of like taking a two year old into a really cool candy store, they just stand there gaping for a while.
Good gods, it's almost October! (bouncebouncebounce) New York Sheep and Wool is in October, and it's quite likely we'll be going. (big fiber festival, sheep, yarn, spinning, weaving, etc.) Considering the financial situation we won't be doing much buying, but I've seen and heard so many people talk these festivals up that I'm quite looking forward to it. Sir will be bringing his laptop while I fiber-geek, but I expect he'll be as into the dog trials as I am. Since there will also be a lot of demonstration-type things too, I'll be able to learn a lot. I've only seen someone use a spinning wheel once, so getting some hands on instruction will great.

In theory, I should be in the middle of turning my house into what you describe for yours. In practice, I would like to take a nap for several days.
