I finally have a picture of the shrug I finished not too long ago...I like it so much, I want to make a winter version. haha...and yes, Mike, my fingers DO bleed sometimes...if by bleeding, you mean really sore...


*photo taken by Mike when he ambushed me as I left the bathroom...

Thank you, Tylenol PM!

Why didn't anyone ever tell me that sleeping pills would solve all of my problems? No wonder I was sleeping all of the time - I was getting a sack of balls for rest. A SACK OF BALLS.

A reunion seven years in the making...

Its about time. We haven't seen each other for so many years. He was my best friend in highschool. We spent hours just sitting in Starbucks and in spite of all the years, we didn't miss a beat. I didn't want the night to end.

Thanks for a great dinner and a great time, Mike. It was sooo good to see you again.

I'm really glad I can call you my friend again.

Blood on the wall

It happened again! I mentioned in my livejournal that I had been the victim of a nocturnal attack from Mosquiton. The first attack left me with three very itchy wounds. I woke up and turned on the light, trying to find the attacker, and during my search, IT BIT MY TOE!

Well the second wave of assault (an army of one, just like the commercials) left me with SEVEN WELTS. What the hell? I awoke slowly from itching myself subconsiously. It took me a minute to realize that I had once again fallen victim to the ongoing war between humans and Mosquiton. The welts were huge - as big as me eyeballs! I turned on the light, desperately hoping I could find the fucker and squash him - squash him real good. I happened to glance at the wall, and I saw what I thought was a nail. No! My eyes were decieved by their clever camoflauge. What I truly saw was the most engorged mosquitonian I have ever seen! So I squashed him - I squashed him real good. The resulting fray left my hand and my wall spattered with blood. MY BLOOD!

N.B. Blood on the wall is actually a really awesome band.

Kimono my house

Got a call from Miyako Japanese Steak House. I am now a hostess (with the mostest? har har har) until a server position opens up. I need to get some yukata pronto. I'm afraid my kimono would be too hot, and I don't have the right undergarments, as its serving as a wall hanging right now.

Heaven on Earth

I think I'm going to create a new blog where I can store pictures of my different knitting, sewing, and other creative projects...Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of a couple of the things I'm most proud of...

Maxin' and relaxin'

Not the best picture, but this is how I spent the better part of my day. That cream-colored blob next to me is Fluff.

A snippet from a conversation with Mat Paskins...

about hedgehogs, I'm embarassed to say. But this story was too cute.


Hello Heather

Amy and I sat in vigil by a hedgehog once. It was trembling and puckering and looked like it wouldn't last. There was a trail of blood behind it.

Then it woke up, had a lick of the 'blood', which was tomato ketchup, and waddled into the night. There was a kebab box tipped on its side just nearby, so obviously it had just had a dodgy kebab.

Wild and Crazy party...

Not really. It was fun, though. Met some 'theeesssppppppiannnnn' who was very short. I didn't look at him very much. I was too busy bein' rad.
