Speaking of Dreams Being Weird

Posted in life, random, tagged on March 31, 2011 | 4 Comments »

I have this recurring dream where I’m on a large airplane, and the plane is trying to take off, but for whatever reason, the pilot is unable to get it far enough off the ground to clear a nearby mountain range. The plane is forced to land in the forest on this huge mountain, and [...]

Promises Made, Promises Broken

Posted in life, tagged on March 29, 2011 |

I know that at the end of yesterday’s post I promised you some knitting content, and honestly, that was the plan. But then today happened. The kids and I met a friend and her kids at the park for a little geocaching and some fun in the cold, late-March Connecticut sun before we headed back [...]

Dreams are Weird

Posted in life, tagged on March 24, 2011 | 2 Comments »

True story: I had a really crazy dream this morning wherein I was hanging out with the Yarn Harlot and a bunch of other knitterly-type people (Hi Deb!) but instead of knitting, we were all sitting at a table, trying to put together this strange and extremely complicated wooden puzzle. We were having a great [...]

Blargh.

Oh my goodness. Sometimes I really feel as though I am not interesting enough to keep up with this post a day thing. My life is so very ordinary. For example, I’m so bloody tired today, so much that I am starting to wonder if I’m ill or if it’s just the weather. (Did you [...]

Time Management Fail

Posted in life, links, tagged on March 20, 2011 |

So yup. It’s nearly 9 pm and there isn’t enough light left for a decent photo of the sleeve of my sweater. Which I totally have been working on, like ALL DAY. I swear. No, really. … Ahem. Hey, look what I found on the Internet today! It’s the Vlogbrothers! They’re pretty fucking cool if [...]

Tacet

Posted in grumble, life, tagged on March 9, 2011 | 3 Comments »

As I type this I am sitting tacet at orchestra rehearsal, knitting and listening to the conductor rehearse everyone else in the Peer Gynt Suites (and trying to stay out of trouble; bored trombonists are often unintentionally disruptive to orchestra rehearsals). If I had a TARDIS I would go back in time and find out [...]

A Day of Laundry

Posted in life, Zombies, tagged on March 7, 2011 | 2 Comments »

I admit that my regular routine gets a relatively late start around here. But, ordinarily, getting a load of laundry going by 11 am is no big deal in the grand scheme of things, because I can do the laundry at my leisure. Except today when, on the second load, the washing machine started making [...]

Good day, bad day.

Posted in life, tagged on February 7, 2011 | 3 Comments »

Good day: Overnight, I made broth from the carcass and bones of last night’s leftover turkey. I woke this morning to the most delicious aroma of rich turkey broth which I then made into an easy turkey-noodle soup for tonight’s dinner. Bad day: We had the HVAC guy over to do our annual tune up [...]

Fatties Run Around Outside and Have Fun

Posted in life, TAS, tagged on February 1, 2011 | 2 Comments »

Cross posted from Fat Sisters because I am a lazy fatty fat. ;-) Getting in some exercise doesn’t have to be the torturous chore it so often is (for me anyway). We have had an inordinate amount of snow around these here parts so these two Fat Sisters went out this weekend and hit the [...]
