A bit behind, but I’ve been enjoying my time off work and celebrating by doing almost nothing 🙂 The Borg Fan Collective and Stargate Atlantis: Season 2 have been good standbys for some much needed vegging, but I did manage to drag myself into something other than pajamas and to the post office to mail […]

More FO's

Shifting Priorities
Apparently, when I am stressed and busy, the blog is the first thing to go. I didn’t intend to be away for so long, but my entries would have been akin to this: “I am busy, and feel uncreative. I have more angst than a pimply teenager. Please excuse the whiney content. Blah blah blah… […]

We normally have 2 seasons (summer and winter) with about a week of transition in between, but fall has been long, luxurious and sensual this year. Yesterday the leaves on the maples outside of my office building […]
A bit of political
As the USA heads into another very important election, we are bombarded by a lot of advertisements, slogans, and one-word reasons why we should vote a certain way or against someone else. If you haven’t made up your mind by now, I can’t see any more bombardment making a difference. And that’s not why I’m […]

Shakespeare In Lace
Anne has announced the 2009 Wooly Wonka Lace Club and I’m excited to be a part of it again. This year the theme is Shakespeare. Here is the line-up. March: Miriam Felton of Mimknits is kicking off the subscription kits with a nod to Othello. She’s taking her design theme from Desdemona’s handkerchief, a strawberry […]
Dimorphous Errata

If you would like to download the updated version, just send me a note using the contact form with your order number and I’ll be […]
