True Fact #1: When I was three years old, I knew all the words to the Dolly Parton Song 9 to 5.
Still do. Here, I'll sing it for you.

True Fact #2: I'm teaching a dyeing class this weekend at the Shepherd's Harvest Festival.

True Fact #3: I have seen zero percent of the following movies:
Pirates of the Caribbean 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7
The Godfather
The Godfather II
The Godfather III
Anything in a theater from the years 2002-2009.
True Fact #4: I have a cat. Kia would like you to know that she still lives here, that her position as eldest pet of the family has not been usurped by a certain giant horsedog.
Women and cats will do whatever they like. Men and dogs should just get used to the idea.
True Fact #5: Tomorrow, I'll give you a couple of previews of our new, can't-be-recreated, spring rainbow mini skein sets found only at Cloverhill Yarn at the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival.
True Fact #6: Still no leaves on the trees here in northern Minnesota.
True Fact #7: I'm a little peeved about #6.
