livingdebRemember when I got ink on my dress at the recital and used ink-remover stuff to try to get it off? When we last left our heroine, the dress was in the wash for the second time. It came out with a small spot which looked brownish and of about the same size as other similar spots on the dress, though you could still tell that such a spot didn't belong in that part of the dress. I had time to spray-and-wash it again and wash it again, after which it was a tiny spot which I could find only because I knew where to look. Then I had time to spray-and-wash it again and wash it again, and the next morning, it was only a tiny bit of mottling which looked just like other mottling all over the dress.
I declared victory, for victory was mine.
Spanish learning site of the day - Notes in Spanish has podcasts for students of "inspired beginner," intermediate and advanced Spanish. Pay extra to get worksheets, but I think enough is explained that a dictionary will be sufficient. One author is English, the other Spanish, so they both pronounce "podcast" as "pode-cost," only cuter. It reminds me of the boxer's girlfriend in "Pulp Fiction" who so admired pot bellies, which she pronounced more like "pote-billies."
