Seems it was pig day at the Village today. Yes, I still go there. No, the pigs weren’t organized as such, I did that. It was easy though, there were so many. These guys weren’t the only ones either. Or the ugliest. See what they did there? It says “PIG” just in case you couldn’t […]

New Obsession
By Caitlin Jane in Art!, seriously?I read a post on thehairpin about nails a couple weeks ago and was inspired. I’ve always liked nail polish (despite the normal, raggedy state of my fingernails) and already had a decent collection but decided to buy some of the skinny bottles and do some experimentation. Let’s just say that it wasn’t easy at […]
Watch out where the huskies go!
By Caitlin Jane in crochet, making stuff is good, seriously?And don’t you eat that yellow icicle. Seriously, don’t eat it. I wouldn’t even walk too close to it, there’s a good chance it will fall onto you and kill you to death. And no one would ever know how you died because the ice would melt and the evidence would disappear. Holy big, right? […]
Trying to stay upbeat
By Caitlin Jane in daily grind, love, seriously?This morning was hard, saying goodbye to Shannon. It’s very quiet here without him or Ari crashing around, but it means I can do some serious cleaning and listen to the radio as loud as I want to. I won’t make this any longer than necessary: there’s no cream here for coffee and I have […]
Hand Update
By Caitlin Jane in Griping, seriously?I returned to the Emergency room for a look-see and fresh bandages. I’d been dreading it, knowing how a big gooey wound can crust up. The doctor that removed it was good-firm but fair. He soaked it in sterile water to loosen things up and told me it was ok to swear if necessary. It […]
Vrooom! Vrrrrooooooommmm!!!
By Caitlin Jane in crochet, Griping, haha, making stuff is good, seriously?Someone who lives in my building had fun Saturday night with their motorcycle. Or did something deeply regrettable, I’m not sure. What I do know is that loud revving could be easily heard and that the perfume of burnt rubber was in the air. At 1:30am. Lucky us. But check the damage done to the […]
Colours/Changes
By Caitlin Jane in crochet, Griping, seriously?I won’t be blogging as much anymore. Not only do people almost never comment on my blog-leading me to think no one reads it anymore so what’s the point-I’m making a computer switch out to using my ipad almost exclusively. This laptop is a piece of shit that I never got to properly test drive […]
Hilariously awful
By Caitlin Jane in clothes, Griping, seriously?I cleaned our oven today. Talk about the world’s grossest job. The brown goop that came out of it was so gross, omg. I guiltily used almost an entire roll of paper towels-I just couldn’t bring myself to use a damp rag that would need rinsing after each swipe. Ugh. Anyway, this horrible task led […]
Skurrcrow
By Caitlin Jane in fucking weird man, haha, seriously?What’s wrong with this picture? It took me a minute of brain wracking to really figure it out. At first I wondered what kind of underwear he was wearing. Then I wondered what his nipple piercings were attached to…under there. Really. I really wondered that. Then I realized that whoever put this festive scarecrow decoration […]
Mt. Rebar
By Caitlin Jane in seriously?, we have funSpotted around the corner from my house, at the deconstruction site. It’s at least 10 feet high and is like a giant nest of bent up rebar mixed with chunks of cement. It’s prettier than you’d think. It’s exactly as cool as you think. I’m taking Ari to play on it tomorrow. Hey, we’re up […]
