Schmancy is a cool store in downtown Seattle, which is having some problems in the current economy. Nancy and Fancy are located in the same block and the three of them have some great, handcrafted toys, housewares and jewelry. We never go out shopping, but yesterday we went downtown and braved the wind and cold temperatures to take care of some of our needs.

Zanadu was one stop and we picked up a stack of comics, which was exciting. We rarely get to go to the comics store together. Pull Shapes , B.P.R.D., Hellboy, Echo and blue monday were all procured and I stayed in bed today and read them while Topher went to work. Lucky me!

Topher is home now and we thought we were going to go to a movie, but instead we are going to watch the Flight of the Conchords. Work this week was okay, Friday was pajama day and most classes had parties. We watched Underdog and had popcorn and hot cocoa and cider. The students could all bring one stuffed animal, so the younger grades were pretty bananas with all the excitement. It was pretty cute! Tonight Topher is going to see the dwarves with his buddies and I plan on continuing to do the stuff I go on the weekends, yoga, cleaning, reading, knitting and getting ready for the week...
