We&#8217;re moving next week&#8217;s meeting up to this week due to the holidays.  Another mom has volunteered to run the meeting.  Yesterday Emily said she didn&#8217;t want to go to Brownies, but last night she asked if we were going to be doing a specific craft that she saw a picture of last week.  Nope, tonight we&#8217;re working on the Careers badge.  &#8220;We&#8217;re not making anything?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll make a crafter of her yet.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of craft, the first <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theanticraft.com\/archive\/beltane07\/vinnland.htm\" target=\"blank\">Vinnland<\/a> is done.  One foot down, one to go.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve dug out a fair number of superhero graphic novels &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/All-Star-Superman-Vol-1\/dp\/1401209149\" target=\"blank\">Superman<\/a> stuff, some of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Astonishing-X-Men-Vol-1-Gifted\/dp\/0785115315\" target=\"blank\">Joss Whedon&#8217;s X-Men stuff<\/a>  but I know I&#8217;ve got more floating arond.  I have more Vertigo titles than I thought.  I didn&#8217;t remember that.  Go figure.  I&#8217;ll post them up when I get a chance.  I&#8217;m not sure what to do with the individual comics.  I&#8217;ve got a complete run of Sandman, and also of the original Star Wars comics from Marvel, plus assorted stuff from the 80&#8217;s &#8211; Elfquest, Wonder Woman, Swamp Thing under Alan Moore&#8230; they didn&#8217;t do compilations back then, but I&#8217;m sure it&#8217;s been put out in a single format since.  I also need to decide whether I want to get rid of my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.weisshahn.de\/concrete\/\" target=\"blank\">Concrete<\/a> stuff.  Paul Chadwick&#8217;s work is just so pretty.
