Quilly Update
Today (21 August 2010) is the last day of the San Juan County Fair. Ever since Wednesday, she’s been staffing her very own booth at the fair – all by herself. From 9 in the morning to 9 or 10 at night. (Amoebae have to work their own jobs, and they don’t make very convincing Avon ladies anyway.)
Needless to say, about the only thing that the Q wishes when she gets home these last few nights is a shower and a bed. Blogging, not so much. There are certain challenges to trying to prepare blog posts with eyes closed.
Rest assured, Quilly will be back on the blog circuit in a day or two, after she gets a chance to recover from her stint as a carnie kid. That’s carnival kid, for the unworthy among you out there. Sheesh.

Busy busy busy. Blogging can wait. It will always be there. 🙂 Yeah Charley I couldn’t do that Avon stuff either. Can you imagine. Mascara? What the hell is that LOL.
Mascara, Thom? That’s easy. You wear them at Hallowe`en. Got your Mufi suit ready?
I hope the peddling was a success.
I’ve been peddling ever since we got here, Dawg, and I’m still gaining weight. (I need a new bike, I guess.) So, no … 😉
It’s very nice of you to maintain her blog, Amoeba. Thank you very much.
Thanks for hanging with us, Musings.
We´ll be here when she´s back. I just hope this stint as a carnie kid, brings in the “rewards” (speak: cash) to be worthwhile. 🙂
It’s an investment, Betty … 😉
Quilly as a Roustabout, can we hear Elvis “Singing” in the Background.
Dang, link went Haywire, try this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1a1mJfNBuP8
Well, Bill, if she starts going all moon-eyed over her experiences at the fair, I’m going to start looking around for Elvis impersonators. (I fixed the link.)
I hope Quilly hasn’t been swindling the locals with sleight-of-hand games.
Don’t think so, Nessa. But before she gets home, I’m counting the walnut shells.
If you ever learn how to blog with your eyes closed, let us know. That would be quite a feat.
Yeah, and I know eyes aren’t feet.
True, Linda, they aren’t, but blind blogging is a pretty sure way to court defeat.
I sure hope she got some good leads outta this! That is a LOT of work! I did it for Tupperware one year… NEVER AGAIN!!!
Clearly, Melli, your mistake was Tupperware. It’s ware-ing. The Q’s already making plans for next year’s fair.
That kind of thing can be exhausting. Hope she gets some rest this weekend — and as Melli said, some good leads out of her efforts.
Will see if we can get Q some sleep tonight, Barbara. Thanks.
I imagine the stall will generate some worthy blog posts 😉
Maybe so, Akelamalu, but I can’t be sure yet. She’s stalling.
Blushing: I thought of “chili con carne” before carnival. Hehe. Hope you made lots of sales. We just vacationed in Aruba and I was surprised to see an Avon storefront there!
P.S. Tell your microorganism hubby I LOVE his wordplay responses in this thread! 🙂
