Happy Mother's Day!

I should be upstairs getting ready to go out to a japanese steakhouse with my mom, but instead I am at my new desk (more on that later) fantasizing about possibly reupholstering something.  Perhaps these folding chairs:  http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/fuo/2368989765.html

Is that even possible?

In any case, happy Mother's Day to all the mothers, stepmothers, foster mothers, ersatz mothers and anyone else who feels left out.
