I have a crazy long hallway and found it so hard to get a runner that I love and is long enough. I ended up going with 2. But I wish I had thought of piecing them together and had bought a third one to do so. 2 isn't enough with the way the pattern repeats, and they don't quite cover the entire hallway.

So I care. I'm quite impressed that you made your mega-rug a reality!

I have been saving all my leftover yarn for years until I feel like I have enough to crochet a rug with 3 or 4 strands held together. I also am saving worn out fabric like sheets and tshirts to make an eventual rag rug. I just realized over the weekend that one of these types of rugs would work very well in my camper, and I wouldn't need a large one. I have enough scraps saved that I could make it finally!

I can not wait to be old enough for senior discount days at grocery stores, IHOP, state & national parks. I think that falls somewhere between excited-to-buy-a-rug old and test-driving-walkers old.

Are we talking a calorie bomb here or a flavor explosion?

I think I conflated red dress girl with goodbye girl, as Porrada clarified.

Are you doing the Louie CK bit? (Louie? Louis? I can't ever keep it straight)

Where he talks about how somewhere there 100% exists a test reel of dozens of little girls trying out for the "~~girl in the red dress~~ goodbye girl" part. Dozens of little girls brought or dragged by their parents to a casting call hoping to get their darling into the business. Dozens of little girls saying that line ("goodbye Jews") emphatically, petulantly, sweetly, angrily, monotone-ly, loudly, softly...

I did! It took a few years of trying various things, and in the end a beta blocker was what worked. That and figuring out one of the triggers was sleep deprivation.

I don't put stock in the paranormal/ supernatural, but I've seen every one of those movies, and I know that if you try to get out of the situation, you'll end up in an even worse Rube Goldberg machine of death.

Do you open shipping boxes on your desk? I've gotten things from ppl (Etsy, Ebay) in reused boxes and have had random detritus fall out of them from whatever the sender had been storing in them. So it could be from jewelry, just not your jewelry.

Nope, made it worse. It was chronic headaches. If he wasn't happy with the pop and crackle of my spinal discs, he'd try harder to contort me. I was not a fan.

Also, I saw an eagle try to catch a snake once, and the snake was a constrictor. The snake wrapped itself around the eagle, grounding it. Neither were letting go, neither were going to survive. It was pretty metal, and it wasn't beautiful. Definitely grotesque and brutal.
