All the cool cats are doing it-blogging on the iPhone

one more thing

happy heads, dc is going to get a boost this coming winter so get out your knitting needles!

plus, i was asked to be on the board of directors of a new/consolidated knit/crochet group! more on this as it develops.

dull update

i'm alive.

hello readers in bulgaria! (i know you're there...i can see you on my tracking info. thanks for stopping by.)

quickly...

i learned how to knot pearls. here is a bracelet i made for danielle. she wore it on her wedding day last month!


practice makes perfect...


we had a going away party for dan at the end of september. i made the cake. orange chocolate with orange sauce.




went apple picking in october.

wait, no, that's a chicken.

here are some apples...

oops, sorry. another chicken.


yay!

here is the pie i made later...

it was tasty.

here is josh ritter and the band at the 9:30 club in october. >sigh<

weblog awards - vote by Nov 8!

no no, i'm flattered, but i wasn't nominated for a weblog award. probably because my blog is boring and no one reads it and i haven't updated in forever. but Tifaux and Frumteacher were nominated! go vote for them once a day until november 8!

i'm still around

so i'm still alive. i'm taking my first graduate class and i have about 7,000,000 hours of reading each week. i got an "A" on my first paper, so i'm feeling pretty good about that. i have another one due on monday, so i hope to return to civilization shortly after that.

i've been off of flickr and blogger for so long both asked me to log in again and i forgot my passwords. that was annoying.

here is a very quick update.
madison wears her new hat...(recap...i made it in august and her mom gave me this pic weeks and weeks ago)

also, though i'm trying to do the freegan thing (slowly) i did buy a new dresser to replace my old one. that kind of defeats the idea, i know, but here's my logic...this new dresser is smaller and therefore i am forced to go through my clothes again and dispose of stuff i won't wear anymore. plus, it's shorter than the old one so i can hang things over it and get some closet space back, meaning my clothes aren't squished anymore and i can again go through and get rid of stuff. i did both of these purgings on monday night and i feel pretty good about it. i have two bags of donations, and i might have some more by next week. here it is...it's a malm by ikea.
or maybe it's a bluurg or a vyorn or heefen or whatever.

i put the other dresser on freecycle and i have found a new home for it already. there's the freegan sprirt!
