at least his socks are clean.

why do some people think it's okay to take off their shoes on public transportation? this is a COMMUTE ferry, not your living room. put your shoes on and be miserable like the rest of us..!

spare time, etc.

my sis finally decided to start her own business (see below post of a bday card she made for my boyfriend).  her stuff's really cool.  check her out at
Angry Kitten Crafts!

have i already mentioned i learned how to knit years ago just so i could make Harry Potter's Griffyndor scarves for my kids?  nerdy, i know.  but, look, i'm even MORE nerdy now; i'm yarnbombing things around me. 

the orchid my boss gave me (after i killed the cactus he gave me)

here's my coworker's plant i yarnbombed while she was out of the office for a week:

and my boyfriend's bike and car that i yarnbombed while he was out of the country:

too bad i don't really know how to make anything but ugly scarves and funky yarnbombing covers.

my sister is a crafty one.

I love my sister. she made a really neat birthday card for my boyfriend (who likes Volkswagen buses a lot). She insists if she had more time, she could have done a better job, but if she can do this well for the last-minute request i made, I can't even imagine how cool a "more time" card would have turned out. Thanks, Sis; you rock..!
