A Demanding Mistress

      No Comments on A Demanding Mistress

If you were new to Poison’s acquaintance, you would think she had always been a naturally affectionate cat. In actuality, she was a very shy and skittish kitten; that she’s developed into an affection-demanding critter is kind of really awesome. Having said that, she came over and yelled at me until I got on the couch and put a pillow… Read more »

One Thing or Another

I noticed this morning that I had some laddering going on around the DPNs. Ladders. Me. That never happens, and I am mortally offended. *giggles* Having said that, I am nooot gonna pick it back. I’ll try to snug it up a bit when I’m doing all the darning, and otherwise, they’re like… armpit, so. The ‘another’ of the day… Read more »

Argh!

I’m glad I’m only a couple of rows along on the first sleeve — because I’ve got to pick it back. I realised that I was doing the garter panel wrong because I wasn’t thinking about it. So I’mma sigh, and go tend to that. A part of me wishes I was crappy enough to just ignore it and call… Read more »

Simple Pleasures

With my ‘big’ laptop on the mend, the matter of what game to grace it with came to the fore. So, perhaps unsurprisingly, the first thing that came to mind was yet another attempt at a Sims 3 legacy. I’ve got my founder created (poorly pictured), and she’s already found a trash-poor spouse to share her wall-less home with. They’ll have walls… Read more »

Chasing Rainbows

The wool for Littler’s jumper came in; as you might expect, she is thoroughly pleased with her rainbow. She’s a tiny bit miffed that I am not going to start on it immediately, but considering that I need to finish her sister’s jumper first… well. It won’t be too long, probably. Past that, hail hail the weekend! While Halloween was… Read more »

And lo, The Day of Spoop arrives, and I finally feel like I can wear my dress for the first time! I love the cut, and I love the embroidery, and I am gonna have fun running for the door tonight. I’ve got my eyes done up, and will slap on the black lipstick after dinner. Yes? Awww yiss. Z… Read more »

Autumn Sights

I was delighted to clock this mushroom formation when we got into the office this morning. I didn’t get as good a picture as I wanted because I waited until *after* work, and there was a car in the way. Ah well. And  we were to the office super quick this morning; we were at the vampires for all of… Read more »

Cold Hands

It’s the time of year where the temperatures haven’t changed, not significantly, but the distance from the daystar is enough that it feels colder and wetter. Z got me these fingerless gloves some Christmasses back, and they are my dearest friends through the chilliest bits of the day. I’ve had a good day all told. I managed to find some… Read more »

Progress Shot

Well okay, it’s folded over itself, but it’s getting somewhere! My current plan is to finish the white band I’m on, do another blue, and then wrap the body up with the ribbing in white. It just seems more balanced in my head to do it that way, seeing how the top third is solid blue. That’s been about it… Read more »

Pinning On

While I am not really in on the whole pin craze, I do have a couple. And for the sake of my unicorn, I actually bought a pack of rubber backs, ’cause she fell off my purse and the back went missing. She was the second unicorn to fall off, but at least the one I was able to recover…. Read more »
