Why yes, I am a knitting robot from the future…That there is the body of my Argyle Kitty Kat Cardy FINISHED. Well, not technically finished. I have to weave in a million ends and embroider on the white diagonal lines and the cat faces, but the actual knitting is done. (I used a three-needle cast…

Home. Sick. I started feeling crappy yesterday at work, and today I’m officially running a fever. My throat is starting to get sore. I think I’m finally experiencing a visit from the Dreaded Summer Flu, which has claimed many a victim in the past month. On the upside, I slept in til 11:30 today.

My Kitty Kat Cardi continues to grow. The two fronts will each have five diamonds, so I’m 30% of the way there…

Well, my friend Sal finally made it back to the States and today she sent me a link to our photos from jetboating. Check ’em out! We’re the goonies sitting in the back row of the boat. Oh, and if you’re wondering why everyone else is in red and we’re not? Because they’re wearing ponchos.…

Dr. Amy Jones was driving us CRAZY this morning, scratching and meowing at the bed for hours. We tried locking her up in the bathroom, giving her an early breakfast, refreshing her water, everything. She was just being a total poophead. Snookums thinks maybe the wind gusts scared her, or else the lunar eclipse messed…

Time lapse video of someone painting a Photoshop portrait of Radiohead’s Thom Yorke. It’s amazing.
