I'm sitting here at work sunk in boredom. I almost fell asleep around 10...that would not have been good. Seriously, people need to start placing orders! Buy stuff already! I don't even mind if it's from an obscure, contact-info-missing vendor requiring 10 minutes of research simply to place an order. I'd welcome it! (Well, perhaps not ( Read more... )

I have been watching the mystery adaptation of An Unsuitable Job for a Woman (and on VHS, no less), but due to the bizarre cataloging system of oslri, I have ended up with parts 1 & 2  (sans part 3) of the first mini-series and only part 1 (sans part 2) of the second one.  So, I have stopped at the dramatic turning point in both of them with no ( Read more... )

--My annotated bibliography is due on Monday and I have done only the most mild and cursory search for materials.  I should probably get started on that.  Yeah.  Also, I need to read Stiff, which I think will be fun.  I forgot to check if there is an audio version.  Hmm...probably not.

I am sad.  I have just finished reading all of See Eunny Knit.  All of it.  And there is no more.  I knew about Eunny and her work before this foray into her blog, but...damn.  She is amazing.  There is nothing more to say.

I hope her Interweave blog picks up, selfish git that I am.

And in the interest of posting some non-meme* content:

Mrs. Fontaine, my beloved high-school chemistry teacher, has cancer.  She is quite spunky and doing very well.  There are numerous prayer lines in progress for her, and I've decided to contribute, as well.  I'm going to bag Tomato for awhile and start a prayer shawl, namely this one, which is ( Read more... )

I went to Scizzors, even though I originally said I wouldn't go back there.  Both mom and I didn't like our haircuts at the time.  But they both grew in really, really well and we changed our minds.  I now have awesomely short hair, but a bit longer in front.  I also got a Blowdrying 101 lesson from my stylist.  And my squirrel eyebrows (her words ( Read more... )

Well, well, well.

I'm on ravelry!

Too bad I'm at work so I can't do much exploring...this weekend, maybe.  Only bummer so far is I'm a smugmug user, not flickr.  :o(  But I'm sure it will be fine!

And tonight is SNB at the Edge!

I made my first
