    has discovered that getting a good night’s sleep does not necessarily preclude one from having a really crappy morning.

  • Arrivederci, frog!

    Arrivederci, frog! (Snookums likes Cookie Monster.)

  • Whoopie Pies

    I can confirm that Whoopie Pies are a staple in northeastern Indiana. My Mom used to make both the chocolate and the pumpkin versions. I believe that the local version used the Crisco-and-sugar mixture in the middle.

    is fighting with Visio. Is there a nicer, faster way to create a simple, non-fugly flowchart?


    @brodrigu I’m stuck on a PC at work, unfortunately.


    has lost more tweets today. And here I was just yesterday recommending Twitter as a serious business opportunity. Grrrr.


    @mrs_sockvictim Be strong! You’re the Mama Monkey and the monkeys always win. They won’t even remember it in 2 days, promise.


    has invented a Time Team drinking game: Drink whenever Geophysics is useless. I am not responsible if this game gives you alcohol poisoning.


    feels like a zombie. Two nights of cats keeping us up. Snookums says: I told you so. Caffeine not helping. Urge to kill rising…


    @gadgetgirl70 Sure, if by “going out” you mean “hanging with my beeyotches at knitting group.”


    thought knitting podcasts might soothe rage & headache. Didn’t realize David Reidy put effing BAGPIPE SOLO in middle of an episode. GAHH.


    @michaelengle Undo it! Put tip of left needle into stitch BELOW the purl, slide it off right needle, & pull free. Then purl again looser. 🙂

  • xkcd

    Today’s xkcd. I have had that exact dream SO MANY TIMES. Actually, the one I’ve been having more frequently lately is of moving into my college dorm room, and freaking out about how I was going to hide the cat from the R.A.

  • Come visit!

    Roger Ebert thinks you should visit another country. I couldn’t agree more. Coincidentally, there’s currently a price war going on between Qantas, Delta, and Virgin over the LA-Sydney route, with flights as low as $598 return. THAT’S NUTS.
