thursday, it was

woke early so di and i could take the subaru to wally's for work on the front end. we drove down and got there just before 8am. left the car with norm, and we went to starbucks for chai and cake. back north to TBM where we arrived just before pete the plumber, who worked on the dual breaker for the boiler supply line. dad arrived with casey the dog (who is fun and bonkers around seth). i spent the day editioning posters, moving tables, and trying to fucking finally finish drawing the patagonia revisions. wally called to tell me the car needs new ball joints for the front end. a bit expensive, but the car has 200k miles on it. oh well. the delivery truck came with the huge skid of french paper, and thankfully they sent a truck with a liftgate and a pallet jack. loading 1300 lbs of paper was no problem at all. bill slater came by for lunch - he's going to drive our stuff down to texas on tuesday. later, tony from metropolis came by with one of his dudes to pick up the huge 12' long table, which they will use at their roasting facility. this freed up a huge amount of space for us. very exciting. di took the car home, and my dad and i went to guitar works to try to get a couple parts for his garage sale banjo project. he dropped me at home, di had chicken and mashed potatoes for me, and we watched the first half of 'the seven samurai', which i loved.
