Could the eagles have flown Frodo into Mordor? Fascinating little throwaway link from Kevin’s Indiana Jones review.
Weezer just won the Internet. That is the coolest music video of all time. I don’t even recognize all of the memes they reference in there. (Link courtesy of Daring Fireball.)
It’s 1:24am. The Tapestry Craft sale website is finished and will launch in less than eight hours. I need to sleep.
I’m just a little bit speechless right now. I’ve been killing myself this week trying to do all the normal sale website prep stuff on top of my real job – I was up past midnight last night – and this morning I logged in to Ravelry to see somebody complaining about the splash page on the site. They were upset that they couldn’t get to the site and order a pair of knitting needles NOW. I’m just flabbergasted. We used to keep the site up and running normally right til the sale began, but inevitably we’d get half a dozen emails the following week from customers who unknowingly bought the day before it started and were bitching that they didn’t get the discount. You really just can’t win. At least this way we cut down on the complaining, and it gives us a full day to test the site and make sure it’s ready. Plus I think it’s kinda fun and builds up a sense of anticipation towards the Sale. What do you guys think?
Fashion! Turn to the left!
Thanks to the Snook, we recently came into the possession of a 40% off Jeanswest corporate discount coupon. Sweeet. The deadline to use it was last night, so we zipped over to the Broadway for some much needed new clothes. (The man has literally not purchased a stitch of clothing in over a year.) We got two pairs of jeans each, and I also got a denim skirt, a T-shirt, and some awesome thick tights. Snookums got a T-shirt, three dress-shirts, and a pullover. So if you see us anytime soon and we look uncharacteristically not like ragamuffins, that’s why.
Oh, nice! Jeff and Allan over at the Running with the Pack podcast congratulated me on my half-marathon finish in their most recent episode. Thanks, guys!
