Got most of what I needed to get done, yesterday, done... I had missed a couple of calls, so was checking my messages... and one of them, was sooo exciting! It was from a Sweetheart, at a Theatrical group, who I have loaned things to, in the past, for their wonderful plays... they are moving, and need to get rid of some of their props, and wanted to know, if I had any interest.... OH MY GOSH!!! So, I jumped in the truck, last night, and came home with some of the Gnarliest Stuff, EVER! The object, that most had me all giggly, was a huge wall sconce...{almost 6 feet tall, and 6 feet wide!!!! All goopy, and drippy with numerous drippy, electric candles, and beads... OH MY!!!} Once used at Theater Cedar Rapids... It's not very old... but... on the "Gnarly" scale... well, it's way, way off the charts!!!! { I think the creative folks I was dealing with, were even surprised, by my behavior! I LOVE IT!!! I even did the Mad Hatter's 'dance' as we were loading it!} Pal, Dale, knew I was headed to get a load, and was kind enough to stop by, and help me carry it into the store...{ Dale was even scratching his head!} I have no idea, where it will hang... but, oh my... It will be so perfect, for the dedication, this spring, for the Movie... I felt like the Father, in "A Christmas Story" when he got his 'major award'... The leg lamp... No one else seems to see the beauty, and wonder, in this amazing...well,... 'thing'... But, I am all gushy inside!!!! Deb, from the theater, was so kind, to think of me... She said, I was so kind, to loan them things... Whatever.... They are such wonderful people, doing such great work... I love helping them... anytime! { I owe them, big time!} They made my day... I have to go back, and pick up, more cool stuff... But... Nothing as cool, as this, well, Gnarly 'Thing'... My "Major Award"....
