I'd like for you to meet Philomena.


I decided to name her something deriving from "philia", since I wanted her to mean love and friendship. :)


Opening and reading the card and being completely floored.


Customary stick-the-bow-on-someone's-head part of unwrapping. This time, my brother.


Paul reprising his role from Action Movie.


Opening the box that says "Fricke Enterprises" on it.


Looking at the card again. I was reading off the names. Paul says that's what I look like when I'm just about to cry.


Evil Cat is Evil


ASSEMBLY: Lay out all the parts and identify them.


Treadle, base and wheel post.


Wheel and footman attached.


Scotch tension!


Bobbin, flyer and delta orifice.


Driveband and pullies.


Me and the wheel. (Can totally tell it is me, yea?)

Thank you everyone. I still can't get over this. I can't find a way around this that will let me be paranoid or skeptical. I'm just happy. I love you guys. :)

Sorry I couldn't chip in being broke and jobless and all. I'm very happy it ended up working out though. Yay, spread the love :3
