I am impressed that you know how to use Photoshop at all! I recently acquired it at work but have been intimidated about even starting to use it.

Ha ha, nope, they have an indoor "multipurpose room" to use. And, this position is based in Houston, TX, so I imagine they have plenty of fine days.

This does sound like a fun job. I imagine Outdoor converts to Indoor in the wintertime!

Hooray for Wikipedia! : )

BTW, I'm jealous that your blog supports nested comments. Hurry and catch up, Blogger!

Sign me up! Is it an automatic off day if the weather is bad?

Oooooh, a new word! I've not heard that term before. So I looked it up on Wikipedia.

I agree with you about Maria and Etsy. I must confess that I also noticed fabrics and colors much more in this viewing of the movie and wondered how historically accurate shoes, clothing, and upholstery were. I do not claim to be an expert, but baby blue chiffon (Maria's dress for the big party) doesn't seem a likely fabric in the 1930s. As for the curtains, that pattern is *everywhere* these days.

When did accuracy become so critically important in movies? Any film buffs out there who can shed light on this subject?

How about "Upcycling is cool"? I love the scenes featuring the kids in their clothing made of drapes. Now Maria could have a thriving business on Etsy.

Appreciate the special gifts of others - like the ability to climb in a second story window with a jar of spiders.

How could she have lived 16 years and never seen it? Sad!
