Toebeans

I looked up earlier today and spotted Poison bathing herself most assiduously, so of course I had to take a million pictures of it due to cute factor. I think this was actually the first one, which met the criteria of ‘lots of flashing tongue’.  But like, so cute.  Add in that she was pretty quiet today, and that was… Read more »

Chugging Along

      No Comments on Chugging Along

One of the best things about having visitors over is, besides the joy of visitors, is that I actually work on my knitting. Smallhausen had asked me yesterday to extend an invite to E, J, and j to come hang out, an invite that was graciously accepted. It’s always nice when they do, especially since it only works out to… Read more »

A Rather Long Day in Very Few Words

      No Comments on A Rather Long Day in Very Few Words

Hookay, so. Went into the office today. Got some of the things done we wanted to get done, but not all of the things. I kept saying that I’d work on things tomorrow not realising that it was a four day weekend. Yeah, we’ll worry about that stuff next week then. *cough* While at the office, and once I got… Read more »

Getting My Crimp On

      No Comments on Getting My Crimp On

I’ve been making more stitch markers today; my crimper came in, so I wanted to get my hands around it. I think I’ve got the basic idea figured out, which is yay. Now if I could get my head around the wire wrapping for the head pins. I *can* manage, but I’ve not managed to get any speed or comfort… Read more »

Brilliant Times

Hahah, it’s late, so late. But it was a really good night out. It was a small group, only five of us, but it was a candid and friendly environment with lots of good chatter and crafting and the usual silliness. I had some rather edifying conversations that made me feel less alone in the world. I also managed to… Read more »

Frogging It

      No Comments on Frogging It

I’ve decided, after much annoyance with the last three rows, to frog the shawl back to the beginning. I feel no annoyance with this; if anything, I can take what I have learned so far and apply it to doing it better this time around. And sometimes, restarting a project from the beginning is quite cathartic, I feel. We’ll see… Read more »

A Lovely Evening

      No Comments on A Lovely Evening

It could have been a drama-filled one, but instead it was nice. Someone was being especially dramatic about everything, but as they fecked off to another part of the pub altogether, it didn’t bother me none. It did bother some of the other members, who were only just having to raise that said person was a bit of a fussy… Read more »

Foggy Day Friends

      No Comments on Foggy Day Friends

I woke up this morning feeling sort of human, but definitely with pea soup fogbrain. I managed to chuck enough caffeine at it to clear it up by afternoon, but that had a headache to follow it. Which meant pills, and more caffeine, ’cause I wanted to be in semi-decent form. Why? I was having a friend to visit for… Read more »

Regal AF

We have two cats, siblings Batman and Poison. Poison was named before we ever got her (or knew she was a girl) because I am a smart-ass. In Z’s parent’s garage, there was a rat poison dish that looked like a fancy monogrammed pet dish, with the word ‘Poison’ on it. And I’m like… that’s hilarious, I’m naming our future… Read more »

Spiral On

I’ve made some decent progress on my second sock this weekend, tra la! I finished and turned the heel, and am making lovely progress down the foot. I’m not counting on having it done before Thursday’s knitting session, but I’m just happy that, once again, that second sock feels like it flies by as compared to the first. I’m always… Read more »
