AllSaints

This stuff. I mean, it could fit anyone nicely. It's awesome! It's so fancy and expensive. I find myself shocked and appalled that I even want it. Whatever. I'll make some of it sometime ^__^

I smelled the lily
and it was pleasant
I smelled the sweet peas
and they were sweet
I smelled the rose
and it was glorious

Chicken Update 2

The first time we caught our raccoon. There are actually two of them. 

WELL HI! 

What's under here...? 

Life Update

Just because I don't like false pretenses and...yeah. I won't be doing many of these. Thinking of deleting all my recent negative posts. Yes? No? I was in a vindictive mood. But then again, that's like censoring or something.
So, here are things that are going on:

  • A big exciting wedding coming up, with the additional planning and making of things.
  • Some music recitals that I'll try to do well in but I'll probably fail because I suck at performing in front of people. It's a hard solid fact that I'm somehow working on getting over. Oh piano, why are we at odds so much these days? 
  • I need to knit. 
Since the winter (if you can call such non-snow-time winter), I've taken a break from the great art of looping string into wearable fabric * fit * because the fact that we can do that=YAAAAAAY!!!!) but now my fingers are getting that twitchy feeling to them, and I need to knit. At a huge library booksale I found a Guernsey sweater pattern, and I feel like just throwing down anything I currently have going on in my life to sit in a corner, drink tea, listen to 50s music, and knit. However, since that's not (all) possible, and since I already have a sweater WIP, I'll have to settle for these nifty things: google search
Speaking of knitting: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_knitting LOVE naalbinding, but need to sit down and read about it and figure it out.
I'm also going to get back into running. I was a good little don't-break-the-chain-er there for a while, but then things got crazy. I have two basic runs: The Rose Tyler/companion run (you know what I mean) and the tormented porcupine run. Because porcupines running....looks like very hard work.
Speaking of porcupines: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2y4cQEEyuTw
Oh jeez. This blog could easily be a place where I just post cute animal videos. No! I shall keep it boring and news oriented! Or....I'll just post them every once in a while?
