In which there are two things! Two exciting things! Two!
The first exciting thing is that last night, while watching an episode of Torchwood, I completed the Big Brown Sweater. (You may cheer; I will hear you even over the Internet.) It spent a year and ten months on the needles, but it’s finally finished and [...]
In which it is all about the joy that was my local post office today.
This awesome woman (who blogs here) sent me a box (because she is hella awesome) containing:
Yarn, with Sci-fi!
I happened to be at the post office because I was sending a RAOK package myself, to Vuboq, containing needles and stitch markers and [...]
In which I bore my non-knitting readers half to death.
I’ve been knitting myself a hat. This is the third hat that I’ve started for myself; the other two I gave away because when they were finished they weren’t my hat.
This hat is brown and pink, which are totally my colors. It’s not fuzzy, but it’s [...]
In which there’s a parcel! Yay!
The mailman came back this afternoon and left a box on the porch. This box contains the items I got with the Patternworks gift certificate my mom sent me for Christmas:
I’ve been waiting for this box for over a week! I got a felted clog pattern, 2 skeins of Meredith [...]

I’ve finished the back of my sweater, and I am in the process of finishing the front. I’ve used half the [...]
In which the weather outside is frightful.
No one has called (or emailed) to offer me a job today. This makes me sad.
It’s been snowing since yesterday. We have a winter storm watch in effect until six o’clock. I swept off the porch and it’s cold and shitty out. My friend Snow needs a ride to [...]
In which I cook Indian, freak the fuck OUT — omg! you have no idea! DUDES! — on a virtual world, and talk about the perils of knitting. In the process I manage to put a rather astonishing number of links into a single entry. (Mouse over ‘em for snap-ups!)
This morning (and I use ‘morning’ [...]

In which there’s some good news… for once.
We don’t have to move! AmmZon’s mother has offered to sell her the house, and at a remarkably reasonable price. AmmZon is considering it, and in the meanwhile: we’re not evicted! Yay! I can stay here until I get a job and an apartment!
My previous employer — the [...]
In which I’m all stealth.
It’s That Time Of The Month again, so I’m antisocial. I did not go anywhere yesterday, and I will not go anywhere today. I might go out and rip this town a new one tomorrow, though. We’ll see.
I’m online now to catch up on my email — haven’t checked it in [...]
