Pillows I have been tempted by

By in Griping, haha, hmmmm

I actually stared at the first one for a long, long time and thought about a practical joke my parents played on wealthy friends of theirs a million years ago. The next 2 aren’t as cool, but I can tell you that they are very soft. And tempting. And kind of gross. And not tempting […]

Wing ding

By in fucking weird, hmmmm

I woke up from a very strange dream yesterday: that Rush Limbaugh had come out of the closet to a not terribly positive reception. I was somehow friends with him or maybe an aide or assistant and he was a total mess, his shirt stained, his hair sticking up and dirty. He was a sad, […]

Further adventures at V.V.

By in Griping, haha, hmmmm

You may well be wondering why I go to Value Village so often, and that’s very reasonable. I’m on the hunt for vintage percale sheets. That is ALL. Well, ok, you never know when you really will find a treasure, I also look at hand knit sweaters and for yarn/crafting supplies. I’ve never found anything […]

The 10 things thing

By in Blogroll, caitlin's crap, Griping, hmmmm, love

Since I was tagged twice to do this, I figured I’d better get the ball rolling. Mostly I feel like my life is an open book so there won’t be much new stuff in here or any real surprises to anyone, but I’ll try. (And the description of the process, from Ashley’s blog to help […]

Hair mystery

By in hmmmm

I noticed a hair (attached to my head) against my dark red wool coat the other day that was white at the end and brown higher up. What the heck? How does that even happen? Today, after considerable digging, I FOUND that hair and pulled it out, to satisfy my curiosity and things got even […]

How tiresome.

By in hmmmm

I get wrong numbers on my phone pretty regularly (like one a week or more) and today when my phone rang and it said ‘withheld’ I should have known better than to answer it. But, like a fool, I did (the woman we were subletting from-THANKS FOR CHARGING US AN EXTRA $150/MONTH!-blocks her calls too). […]

Influential albums

By in daily grind, hmmmm

AKA Records that changed my life. I say records because when I was young that’s what we listened to. I also call my Sirius Satellite Stilleto my ‘walkman’. I am old school like that. This is a list that’s going around on facebook and at first I wasn’t going to participate, but I was thinking […]

Corrections

By in Art!, hmmmm, making stuff is good

When I wrote out the rippled sock scarf pattern, I made a few mistakes. Here are the patterns, as they should be, with close ups for reference. 1. Chain 37, turn, skip the first chain, single crochet all the way down=36. 2. *Skip first chain, 1 dc in next 3 ch, 3 dc in next […]

‘Fess up time

By in hmmmm

I have eaten turkey dinner 2 nights in a row so my brain might not be functioning properly, but I have something I need to get off my chest: I love Mariah Carey’s perfume. Well, maybe not the perfume, but her scented body lotion  (the pink one) is so awesome. I used it today at […]
