Great day

OK, I had an awesome birthday the other day, I got to have some fun and hang out at Twist, get some cool punky stuff, plus a rockin'-awesome CD of Radio Head!

I also got to try out Alligator. Yeah.

OH MY WORD, I WOULD HAVE NEVER THOUGHT IT WOULD BE THAT GOOD!!
We got it at place called Wichita Fish Company. ( not far from Twist)
It tastes like chicken, except with a richer taste, and it's just a little chewier.

I'd honestly take Alligator over chicken any old day now!

Merry (early) Christmas!

Here's a little holiday spirit to brighten your day...

Progress...

OK, I've actually been knitting this week, I've gotten a couple of rows done on my Kindergarten Rug Shawl...

Yes, I know it looks like my shawl ate the kindergartner...

but I love how it's turning out, and it remains interesting because the yarn is constantly changing, so I won't get tired of it!! I'm one of those kind of people who really, really likes instant gratification.

And for those of you who didn't see my scarf which is so crazyfunkyawesome...

NOTE: Please ignore the un-made bed in the background...

AND my awesome fiesta scarf mom made me...

Which is totally uberific- Tank oo mom...:-)

Well, I'm off to go do my unfinished chores >.<

Busyness

Well, these past couple of weeks have been pretty dang busy, but it's been great!


Been attempting to keep up with the knitting, guitaring, and - of course - drawing...!





For those of you who know me, I'm an CRAZY obsessed person who attempts to use all of her
free time to do nothing but draw. (When I'm not doing guitar, school, or chores etc...)

Well, I've been really slacking on the drawing lately, and haven't finished this month's SSROTU (Starscape: Realm of the Unknown) comics, ((WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE 3 WEEKS AGO.))>:(

Crap- oh well,

I've been really excited about the guitaring this month, because I'm learning the awesome
song, Aqua Lung - Jethro Tull. I LOVE that song, and it sounds sooo freaking cool on the guitar.

Sorry for the stupid post (once again) but I can't think of anything good to write about!!
I'm obviously not an interesting person...lol...

Well, I've gotta' go watch paint dry...
Signing out.

Awesome video

This video is too hilarious!!

The Last Knit

Random picture post!

I found this awesome setting on our camera called

"Super Macro."

It increases the detail so you can get up close
fine pictures without it blurring.


Practice shots:









Sam is thinking, "What the heck are you doing you crazy human??"

As for my eye, it's just kinda creepy...


Sorry, but I just had to post something dumb and geek-like.

Scarf Pics

Ok, Here are some pics of my "swell scarf" I mentioned
I was working on in the previous post...

Sorry for the crummy pics, I'm a horrible photographer...

Anyway, I'm using Becca's yarn she spun up
for me, a soy silk blend
(of which I'm SOOO protective and won't let
anyone come within a 10 foot radius, grr!!),
and some yarn called "OnLine Linie Pinto 174."

All in all, It is a very cute and SOFT scarf
that transitions from one colour to the next.

I'm still too skittish to try anything with
a pattern, so I guess I'll be making awesome
fuzzy scarves for the rest of my life.

Chilling out

Well, today was one of those "do absolutely nothing" type of days,
and to be honest, it felt REALLY good- for the most part.

Here is today's adventure:

Woke up with an upset stomach, ate two cookies, tried not to barf,
felt a little better after awhile, helped dad work on the car, ate a doughnut,
felt like crap again, knitted on my really swell scarf for two hours (hooray!).

Ok, ok, my self-recovery skills stink, but the
temptation of sweets and goodies was overwhelming...
I mean, come on, fresh cookies and doughnuts?!

HOW THE HECK AM I SUPPOSE TO RESIST??
(fine print: mom says it's called will-power )

Well, I'm feeling better and will keep you
informed if I'm still alive...

Hi there!

Well, this is my first time blogging, and I must say
it just feels like I'm talking to myself,

(which, however, is not very surprising)

I can't think of anything important to write
about, so I'll come back later and (hopefully)
have something at least HALFWAY interesting
and substantial...
