I know very little about some of the people on my friends list. Some people I know relatively well. But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's Parker ...she likes money and cereal." I'd love it if everyone who's ( Read more... )

Since I know you like to do some crafty things, you get random craft facts. I am obsessed with doing all kinds of crafts - I try to set aside an hour at night before I go to bed during which I work on a random craft project while I watch Psyche reruns because they give me the giggles and I have sleep issues up the wazoo so the calmer and happier I am before I go to sleep, the better ( ... )

I started doing counted cross-stitch in college and then took up crochet, it seems that when left alone yarn breeds or something... I totally get sleep issues as I have my own, though I couldn't get in Psyche so I tend to things like the Big Bang Theory closer to bed time.

I haven't tried miniatures but I have spun my own wool into yarn using a drop spindle and I've made my own soap. I like to paint as well usually sticking to water colors and I have an air brush that I will someday get the hang of. I like stained glass but I've never tried doing it, I do however have a few books on stained glass and Celtic quilting.

I've been sewing things like yoga mat bags and SCA/Ren Faire garb for years and I have to admit I took a class on making latex clothing and that was different and I now own a black latex tank top...

Ooh, crochet is another fun one! I learned the basics of, but have yet to do anything useful with. I just have this horrendously ugly pink thing that I used to just randomly work on to relax and look busy on the bus in college. It's truly the ugliest thing that has ever been crocheted ;) My sister loves Big Bang Theory and keeps trying to get me into it and I can't explain Psyche. It's so counter to anything else I've ever liked, but I just love it ( ... )

I'm not really sure what to crochet... I made a ton of granny squares so I could probably put them together into a throw... My sister love Psyche and was the one that got me into The Big Bang Theory so in retaliation I introduced her to Numb3rs and White Collar and got her hooked on both.

I've seen videos and live demos of using a drop spindle but I wasn't really good at it, I probably should have practiced more but I got sucked into a belly dance class right after the demo. I don't think I'd make soap by myself... I get mine from a lady at the farmer's market she makes this Lavender-Mint that is amazing.

Latex clothing is interesting... I don't wear it often it gets a bit warm in summer and cold in winter....
