I dropped off my application materials today. The results are now out of my hands. The secretary was kind of funny, commenting on the fact that I was turning in my stuff a week late. I didn't tell her that I wasn't going to apply at all. I just ask her not to hold it against me and left it at that. We'll see in the next week or so how this turns out.

I also mailed out seven scarves today. Unfortunately, I was boxing up the last scarf when I realized I had never taken a picture of them. You'll just have to trust me that this batch was nicer than the last batch. I realized today that it actually cost more to mail them, than it does to buy the materials. Not that I mind. It really is a labor of love. It's also been a way for me to reach out to my blogger friends. This guy asked for a scarf for himself and his dog Diamond. And this guy asked for a rainbow scarf. Both scarves have been finished. One is on the way, including a scarf for Diamond, and the other scarf will be mailed on Monday. I have started my own little club of people who have Maddog scarves.

I also went to the movies today. Since it's only $4.00 a movie here for a matinee I don't sweat going much. In NYC it's almost $11.00 bucks so to go very often gets to be expensive. Today I saw Happily N'Ever After. It was awful. In fact, if I'd had just about anything else to do tonight I would have left about 30 minutes into it. But since I'm in Iowa with little else to do, I stayed. It did not get better. I highly recommend NOT seeing this film, even at home on DVD. There was nothing redeeming about it. Of course going to the movie did allow me to see the guy who works at the theatre. He's by far the best looking guy I've seen in Iowa. He's been there every time I've gone and it's always a pleasure to see him.

That's it for this very cold Friday night. I hope everyone has a wonderful, and relaxing weekend.
