All the big stuff has been moved. I’ve slept the last two nights in my new room.
There were casualties in the move. I’m going to be cooking Thomas the Triathlete a kick-ass dinner as soon as the dust settles to make up for his sprained ankle.
It’s official: in terms of volume, I own [...]
. . . finally. I actually reserved the UHaul truck to carry stuff* to my new home.
Have I mentioned that I *hate* moving? I rate it below having a tarantula crawl up my arm. Of course that’s not really fair, since I had a pet tarantula for a while as a kid, [...]
I have a sneaking suspicion that this cap’s going to be a little bit too loose in the brim. I may have to bust out the elastic and snug it up a bit. But hey, it’s done and I think it turned out quite nicely.
Great Scott! Thumper has finally arrived! And apparently the labor was a doozy. Congratulations Cari, and Happy Father’s Day to Billy.
I have finally gotten back to some real knitting. Witness the start of one of Leigh Radford’s Heads-Up Hats from Interweave Knits’ Spring 2005 issue:

Finished on Saturday at the Yarn Barn: one ultra-minimalist baby cap.
I’m thinking it needs a little crocheted flower on it.
I also got a couple of pretty nice pictures up at my mom’s place this weekend. I’m especially happy with the shot of the humming birds at the bar.
Oh, and I got the hotlinking thing [...]
I was supposed to be at the Yarn Barn by now.
*sigh*
As Kelly is fond of pointing out, sometimes I just get focused on some weird-ass thing and cannot let it go. If only I could apply this in a deliberate fashion, I’d be in charge of a small country by now.
A while ago, one [...]
A little over a week and a half ago, my sweetie found a kitten on her doorstep. The poor little thing was covered in mud and fleas and had a respiratory infection. As said sweetie was leaving town for a while, and as I am allergic to cats, I brought the kitten in [...]
When I was in middle school (fifth through seventh grades in these parts), there was a 7-11 just down the road that I hung out in all the time. It was across the street from the high school that I would later go to. One summer when I was in Summer School, I [...]
