I'm finally ready to post some pictures from my visit home and to Asheville.
In Wise, we have this gift/furniture shop called The Clapboard House. I went in for the first time in decades and found these gems:
yes, that's right. coal jewelry. and coal miners made of coal. meta, much?
Don't be jealous; I'll pick up some for ya'll come Christmastime.
Mark: those were not my floors; that's a wood table at a restaurant. I haven't moved yet (dammit!).

COAL PRIDE! REPRESENT!

i am indeed a fan of that coal creation.
coal earrings...not so much.
ryan was wearing one of mr. tom's asheville shirts today.
--BMW RA at Vanderbilt!--
which i supposed meant bike rally.
it prompted a conversation in which ryan asked me all i knew (or didn't know) about the term "vanderbilt" in general.
me: does it have to do with a rich family or something like that? a university?
him: you know...rockefeller? jp morgan?
me: . . .
reason # 582 in support of my claim that i know a terrible lot of nothing about anything and everything.
