Dor says "SiP?"
You say "Strangers in Paradise. It's a really good comic book."
Tenshi ooohs at harold curiously. i was so bummed when i realized i'd
forgotten about it, but instead i had drinky treats and yummy
breakfast. ^_^;
Kit says "What happened, Harold? :)"
Harold waited in line for about an hour and a half or so.
Harold said, "So, the main reason I came here today was to show you
*this*." He backed up from the counter and unfurled his rug. Terry's jaw
dropped. 
Kit says "Wait, wait, what is this rug?"
Tamago beams at Harold. 
Trip says "Whee!"
You say "He asked me how long I did it, and how long it took to make it. I
said 'about 4 months, in my spare time... and I made the pattern by
arguing with my computer for an hour or so."
Chrisber says "Cool, Harold." 
Kit oot! you made a SiP rug?
You say "He stared at it for a while and said, 'I wish there were
somewhere I could sign it.'"
Harold beamed, and said, "Well, I was thinking that you could sign the
binding on the back." Which he did.
Kit beams!
Mirror of Air says "yay!"
Trip says "Yay!"
Trip says "Harold is so cool!"
You say "Terry then mentioned that he was now *jealous*, since I had a
piece of SiP memorabilia that *he* didn't."
Mirror of Air says "do you have peektures?"
Kit laughs!
You say "Then he had Lee (I presume) wander over and take a picture of the
two of us holding up the rug. If the picture comes out well, he's going to
*put*it*in*the*comic*!!! Or so he said." 
Trip says "Cool!"
Kit shrieks at Harold!
Harold has not yet scanned in a picture of the rug. He should do so...
Dor chuckles. "Neat."
Chrisber says "Wow!"
You say "And *then* (although not quite as entertaining), there was a
pause in the conversation, so I said, 'While I'm here... could you make me
a sketch? Of Willow? Smiling?"
Harold notes, (parenthetically), that Terry had drawn the Tara/Willow
comic a few months ago.
Kit nods at Harold.
You say "Terry paused, and then said, "She's kind of hard to draw, but 
sure." So I now have a Terry Moore sketch of Willow." 
Dor chuckles.
Kit says "*Cool*!"
Silkie says "Will you turn that into a rug, too?"
Harold thanked Terry. He thanked me. I was momentarily stunned, and
wandered off.
Harold beamed for much of the rest of the day.
Dor imagines. 
Kit beams at Harold!
Mirror of Air aws! 
Trip says "Harold is *entitled* to beam!"
Harold was thinking about making a Willow rug next... but first, he has to
make his Enterprise outfit. Which is about 5-10% done at this point.
Harold beams some more, and pauses to take a breath.
Kit cackles and spins Harold around. cool!
Harold is spun.
Tenshi says "your sip story is incredibly cool, harold!"
