Letter from the Editor

It's about time!
I
know what you're thinking. "What took you so long, girl?
Your front page said 'Coming Soon/Fall 2006' last summer!"
Okay, well, I am lazy. What kind of a slacker would I be if
I actually got anything done on time? Anyway, be glad I finally
finished the issue. Now it's time for you to start nagging me to
start the next issue. I'm thinking for food, a few different
kinds of soup. Borscht, Vichyssoise, and Gazpacho are great
because they work well hot or cold. Okay, maybe it's not Gazpacho
if it's hot, but it's still delish!
As for next issue's crochet project, I don't have a clue, but I'm sure I'll think of something.
You
might also be thinking, "what exactly is the purpose of Galvanic Mag?"
Well, if you can't figure it out, I'm not going to explain it to
you.
And now I'm going to brag: I was on BBC radio. I got to crochet (a bobble headband, no less) on this show.
Seriously, if someone had told me in high school or early college
that I was going to be on the BBC radio and that there'd be a pic of me
on the BBC website (even if it was just for a short time), life would
have been so much easier. I wasn't always this crabby and
conceited, you know. So, you with your time machines, go back and
tell me the good news!
Well, you've made it this far through the letter, so here's a fun little project, courtesy of me, the Crabby Crafter:
You
know the lipglosses that makes your lips go flush and puff up?
And you know how expensive they are? Just add a few drops
of cinnamon essential oil to your favourite lipgloss and get the same
effect for much less! It really works! IT ALSO BURNS LIKE THE DICKENS! And yet, the tingling sensation is kind of nice. But it BURNS! So start by mixing just a drop at a time, especially if you have sensitive skin. Also, do an allergy test. Or not. It's your burning lips, not mine.
Finally, here is your mission: email me
and tell me who is your favourite snooker player and why. Also,
if you have a copy of any of the Dominic Dale's Diary videos, email
a copy to me. They are possibly the funniest things ever.
(Do people who read Galvanic Mag even watch snooker? Well,
you should. Because I said so.)
Well, I guess that's all for this issue of Galvanic Mag. If you start getting antsy for the next issue, email me. Or just email me for the hell of it. Or not. Whatever.
Much love (to most of you, at least),
Chloe Nightingale,
Editor and Crabby Crafter.
P.S.
I am 30 years old. I look pretty good for my age, huh?
I'm humble, too, as I'm sure you've noticed. I also like whisky. See? You
can really learn a lot (about me) from Galvanic Mag. I think it's great that you read this entire letter!
