when you find a parking space that fits all the dummy thiccness.
Covid shopping:
Lowes was madness. Props to them putting pipe foam around the edges of the plastic shields. People think social distancing in lines means it doesn’t matter that they’re blocking anyone from attempting to walk by.
Ventured to a Joann's fabric and while the store is massive, only 10 at a time. Waiting outside was hot and wearing a mask is even hotter. But I will say a mask + sunglasses is a fun anonymity feeling. Also wtf is fabric so expensive? Headboard project will kick off soon. Surely the IT guy that knows electrical and used to do blacksmithing can figure out doing fabric.

The trick with Joann’s (and Michaels) is the stuff is always on sale if you sign up for their email list. They jack up the prices to gouge people who just wander in. I miss the days of independent fabric stores.

100%. I was waiting for the fabric cutter and signed up with their app out of boredom. $92 became $60.

Are there any alternatives
?
I’d
think online ordering wouldn’t work for me
.
I think I
need to feel the fabric since I’m new at this.

I’ve done well at Walmart for fabric.

The new thing is discarded latex gloves on the ground everywhere. I hate it when people wear a mask, but leave their noses uncovered. So. Stupid. I mean, if you forgo the mask altogether, but stay more than six feet from me, I guess I don’t have much of a claim. But if you’re sharing a space with me and wearing a mask and not covering your nose with it, then you are a farkling moron and I have zero patience.

Honestly, I don’t even know any more. Walmart is at least cheap and I sometimes get decent fabric pieces at the thrift store. Everywhere I used to shop has gone out of business.

Worse than tumble weave and flossing cutlasses.

I discovered that mask + sunglasses + hat = years off your age, apparently. Its been at least a couple years since I was last carded at a liquor store.
