A. is taking us to the fabric store. A.'s tired of the anatomically correct requests. M. is amused but withdrawn. R. is gassy. We're looking for fabric to make another Elvira.

The plum is scaring me.

Where did I put the thread? Goddamn.

Success! Found 6 bolts of old tie fabric. One had naked girls on it!

Saw young blue-haired clerk at fabric store. Wouldn't stop staring at A. and me. My spookiness or her vintage Sixers tee? Combo of both? Can't decide. Maybe we're goth witches. Good.

Sweated in housewares on the 3rd floor of the shop. Almost bought square Japanese plates. Too pricey.

Bought spanakopita and baklavah from The Oasis.
"Pistachio or walnut?" the man wanted to know. It took me 5 minutes to decide. Pistachio rules. Feel much better.
