Yesterday was such a busy day. The Earth’s core is filled with nickel. Yes, it is. Well, have you been there? Anyway, Earth’s Core, EC, was fed up with having an inner, no view, cabin on Cruise Ship Earth.
“Four billion years,” it said, “that’s long enough. I want to be on the surface. I want to see the stars and the Moon. I want to feel the wind brush all over me. I want to see the Folies Bergère. I’m coming out now.”
“Do you mean you’re telling the rest of the world that you’re gay?” I asked.
“I’m not. I’m molten metal. Anyway, I don’t get out much. And speaking of getting out, give me one good reason I shouldn’t bubble to the surface and cover the world,” said EC.
“There wouldn’t be any tacos if you suffocated us all with your metallic self.”
EC sighed. “Ok, but send me some tacos.”
And so, I spent of yesterday drilling a taco tube to EC. EC liked his tacos very much. It says, “Thank you.” The world is again at one with itself.
I am happy to say that I was able to take up latch hooking again today. I have done 4,752 squares out of 8,588. I am up to Charlie Brown’s neck.
Here’s what it looks like:
