ravelympics: day one!!!

sooo... i woke up late... i was supposed to wake up at 7:30 and cast on... instead i woke up at 8:30 and cast on...

i decided to start with a skarf since it will end up being the most monotonous thing, and i should be able to work on it throughout the games should i get bored with it.



thanks to ellen bloom for the heads up on the colorway.

ewww.

Jake is gross.


so is pat

Ravelympics

i can't tell you how excited i am about the Ravelympics! i am part of team Hopelessly Overcommitted, and i have 10 projects to finish in 17 days! i don't know if i can do it, but it will be fun! plus that... i love the olympics! hooray!

The honeymoon is over..

I think… I hope. I think I hope against all hopes, but… this morning Liz said, “I think Dora (the explorer) is blind.”
“Why?” I asked.
“Because she can’t see anything she is looking for. And she can’t hear very good.”

My heart swelled with pride that my daughter, my beautiful sweet smart daughter, might finally be over the sickening infatuation with Dora.

Personally I could never stand her. Her head is too big, and she never changes her clothes. Plus, where are her parents all the time? How is it that she can go all the way to muddy mountain with Boots (the creepy monkey), and her parents aren’t around? It just ain’t right.

i have figured it all out...

all i have to do, to do all i want and need to do, is NEVER SLEEP. that is what i learned. now the question is.... is it really plausible. i think, no. oh well...

MY BRAIN!!!!

my throbbing brain!!!


yesterday my coffee pot broke. it just doesn't work anymore. it turns on and everything, but the water doesn't come out, the coffee doesn't brew, and the heating element on the bottom doesn't heat up. the husband says he will fix it this weekend. i think i am getting a new coffee pot. in the mean time, i need to find a starbucks... or drink a thousand cokes.

i am hoping to catch up on blogging, and flickr this weekend. thanks for being patient with me... all two of you.
