• Sad Whale

    Want to feel sad? A lonely whale has been singing in the north Pacific for more than a decade without any hope of getting an answer. Its calls don’t match any of the other known species. It’s really actually pretty depressing if you think about it. (Found on MetaFilter.)

    In case anybody missed it, Atholie has posted her next installment: http://bit.ly/ds6jc4. Screw this stuff; I’m goin’ for a run. πŸ™‚


    Just completed a 6.65 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/atBU3I #RunKeeper


    The cats appear to have made an unholy alliance with the bus drivers’ union to RUIN MY DAY.


    Some of us are at work! RT @scrubbles: Most of my twitterees are not watching that thing that everybody else is watching today…

    This grey and rainy weather is really emphasizing the cloak-and-dagger tone my day has taken.


    @Opheli8 @trib Sewing people? Yeah, I’d classify most as nerds. It’s not a very sexy hobby at the moment. Knitting is where it’s at. πŸ™‚


    @cdeagle Yeah, but you get extra KICKASS POINTS for doing it in the rain. Great job!


    Going by the pattern, I’m 2/3 done with St. Brigid sleeves. Going by the length of my actual Gigantor arms, I’m only 1/2 done. *sigh*


    Stuffed baby eggplant: http://twitpic.com/11np56. YUM. I am a domestic goddess.


    Jenny C has posted about the Guild situation on Ravelry, so those of you who aren’t members, head there to comment and ask ?’s.


    @Alacaeriel The Constitution is on the Guild website…


    @bellsknits Yes. She hasn’t posted the contents of the letter, so non-Guild members should ask her to clarify.


    You know what would make all this better? PAJAMA JEANS. http://bit.ly/6ZfQSl That is the most genius invention of all time.


    It’s not every day you find a perfectly good plastic skull in a skip on Clarence St: http://twitpic.com/11o21a. We think it may even BLINK!


    @crumpet Quite. Tho the jaw is broken and thus separated. Mandibles O’ Death, I call him.


    Since it looks like it’s going to rain all day AGAIN, the only question is whether to run in the rain now or later.


    @cdeagle I don’t get the nipple problem – hooray for sports bras – but some guys swear by Body Glide. Lube ’em up next time!


    @cdeagle Good questions! I’ll definitely work them into Ep 3, hopefully in the next day or two…


    @cdeagle Related question: How do you prefer me to read your twitter name? CD-eagle, or C-deagle?

    Has anyone in Australia gotten this mythical “new” Facebook layout yet? Because I’m not seein’ it, and I have no idea what they’re all complaining about.



  • Pajama Jeans

    Pajama Jeans. DEAR LORD, PAJAMA JEANS. O brave new world, that hath pajama jeans in it!


  • Boom.

    GrandmaFlea lobs a hand grenade. The hilarious thing is, that’s actually the last scandalous development in the current Knitters Guild drama.

    Got fantastic email from Debra in So. California this morning about my podcast. Thanks Debra! You resurrected my Friday. πŸ™‚


    @drkknits Inner City will be drama free, trust me. G, R, and I guarantee it. πŸ™‚


    Woo! @Kat13v and the Firefly quote FTW. I feel stirred up and inspired. πŸ™‚


    Just completed a 2.68 km walk with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/a3EtcW #RunKeeper


    @stufromoz Ran this morning. The walking home was just to feel virtuous enough to make up for the beer at lunch. πŸ™‚
