Peal?

Does anybody in bloglandia know what method the National Cathedral folks rang today (if any)? I can only find info on Trinity Wall Street…

Happy America, everybody.

I am so proud to be alive and American today.

I HAVE FOUND THE PERFECT EXERCISE

(As usual, all caps is completely necessary)

Yes? Yes? Yes. Borders, here I come.

(Incidentally, for the past several weeks I have watched more Bollywood than I ever have before in my life. I *heart* Hrithik Roshan.)

Real content!

No, really. Installation #2 in the club outfits.

IMG_4090Club outfit #2, photo4 by you.

I’m not sure why I look so shifty in this photo, and why my house looks so disastrous, but anyway.

This is my standard “I have no idea what to wear” outfit. It is a Lip Service skirt I got in college, a Marvelous Mayhem corset, some random velvet tank top, and Pennangalan boots.

This is a more detailed view of the boots. They’re not as wicked to wear as they look (though after a few hours, they’re still decently wicked).

Lemmy got into the photoshoot, but decided he didn’t want the exposure and bailed.

I went shopping for a short skirt earlier in the day and bought a crinoline, and Jennie broke it in:

It was great, except for when it disappeared into her dress.

It was an awesome night, and I only got goosed once.

Cooooooookie Crisp

[I’ve been very busy, and will continue to be busy, so this blog might be on a forced hiatus until next month, but I could surprise you. You never know.]

I have just consumed a lot of milk, so I will probably get a stomachache in roughly an hour. On the other hand, it followed a quantity of Cookie Crisp cereal, which I have not had since college, so it was totally worth it.

Dang, I love Cookie Crisp.

In other news, I have decided it is INSANITY to try to knit this hat again (or perhaps I am just that lazy) and so I will frog back to where the band starts, and knit the band again in smaller needles. However, this morning it was really friggin cold (for Georgia) so I was happy for my slightly-loose-but-still-rather-warm hat.

Aaaargh. Hat.

I’ve knit it twice, and it is lovely, and I enjoyed the knitting, but now it is too big and I think I might unravel it and knit it again in a size smaller. Third time’s the charm, right?

I mean, it’s slouchy and lovely, but a little too slouchy and I feel kind of Rasta in it.

This is the one the Chickengoddess knit. Mine is similarly loose.

I’m not dead yet!

I want to go for a walk.

No, really. I’m not dead. See, mostly I sit and work at a computer, and I’ve had two blessedly computer-free weeks, and so I’ve neglected to blog. However, I’ve also been e-stalking Mildly Helpful Darcy through her sister-in-law, the lovely Baobh (with whom I went on a yarn crawl over the holidays), and she has posted photos of herself in the most amazing socks and although I have 3,457,285.5 projects going at the moment, I also want to knit these socks.

The Christmas gift knitting will probably get mailed out in June, at this rate.

That is all.

Phat Knits

And how! (I mean, what’s better than tiny knitted things? Giant knitted things!)

And also, a personal record – almost a whole sock, in under two weeks. Woooo!
