In addition to wearing matching (almost) coveralls, Mariam and I found Newark Art Supply and the cool ACE hardware store on Lafayette with a 10% discount. Why a discount, I asked? Because it's spring? because they've heard about the matching coveralls? The man at the register wouldn't say... but I was grateful, regardless and I'll be back.

We loaded up on supplies and Mariam learned to prime canvas. I learned, or was reminded, that the Airport Express can't wirelessly boost an existing wireless network. (Fail!).
But with a few pie tins and a pringles can we could really have something here.
Cantenna, anyone?
