Or June. Whatever. It’s 6:00 pm and it’s 92 degrees outside. It’s hot-tacular!
Haven’t written in a few days because Travis unexpectedly wound up with 3 days off. We’re not sure what happened. Our only guess is that someone broke the railroad, because they were only calling one or two trains [...]

Since I’ve been spinning, I’ve come to realize that for whatever reason, my circadian spinning rhythms are seem to reset every summer. I spin a ton in the summer. My best explanation is that it’s more humid in the summer, and I don’t have to worry about becoming a gigantor static ball when [...]

I’ve been catching up on my spinning. The first braid of wool/seacell roving I got from Dianne to spin has all been spun. I wound up with 3 separate skeins. The big one is over 5 ounces and has beads in it, the middle one is a 2-ply that’s around 3 ounces, and [...]

Man, what a bummer about Ted Kennedy. Not much else to say about that, except I that I hope someone has had the sense of mind to show him the flying helicopter penis video. I think he’d get a big kick out of that.

Yeah, I lied. I went to sleep before they called Indiana, although to my credit, I lasted until the end of MSNBC’s prime time coverage (either 1 or 2 am, I can’t even remember now). And even though Hillary squeaked by, I’m still all proud of everyone who went out and voted in [...]

I’m having YouTube weirdness. For the past week or so, I can hardly get any YouTube videos to play. I watched the Empire Strikes Back/Obama-Hillary thing a few days ago, and today, after clicking a bunch of videos randomly, I finally got one of some weird bottle orchestra thing to load, but 9 [...]

So, in case anyone wondered, I am actually still knitting. I set my colorwork sock aside when I got to the heel, as I’m still undecided on what I want to happen. I’m waiting for the heel inspiration pixies to come. In lieu of that, I started another sock. I haven’t [...]

Travis made hamburgers for dinner last night. I’m not sure how he made them, or what was in them besides onions, but they were so awesome I didn’t even stop to take a picture. I was too busy snarfing them down.
I did actually hurt my back again, like I was thinking I was [...]
