OH HAI THAR.
So...this is still here. I'll admit, I'm a bit shocked. My last post was years ago, and I don't even know why I stopped posting. I'm trying to remember, and all I can think is that I started to get anxious when I would start to type in the link, and I had it in my bookmarks and sometimes I'd click it accidentally, and then I'd panic and close the ( Read more... ) -
How To Eat A Sandwich
This quick tutorial is based on the example of the Podling, who, despite how it is presented to him, will invariably approach it in the following manner.
1. Accept sandwich with a polite "thank you." Staying on good terms with the food-givers will get you more sandwiches in the future, or at the very least implied permission to consume others' ( Read more... ) -
Just a few things:
- You're all following the reviews for Laurenn J. Framingham’s Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter: The Laughing Corpse: Book 2: Necromancer over at Chris's Invincible Super-Blog, right? If you're not, and you've been mocking Twatlight and LKH and all its facepalming inspiration, you really need to check this out. Link is to the latest annotated review ( Read more... ) -
Wool Gathering 2009
I had no idea I would be going to the Wool Gathering in Yellow Springs, Ohio. I assumed I was just out of luck for several reasons; firstly the lack of money, secondly that I had no one to go with, and thirdly that we had a full weekend.

You've never met anyone as everything as I am sometimes
I've been pretty quiet over here, for a long time. While I enjoyed sharing the Lovecraft, it was just a stalling tactic, and it didn't really sit well with me. Despite my efforts to make it clear that the story I was posting was not, in fact, at all mine in any way, shape or form, I still felt like I was stealing it from Lovecraft. I would feel ( Read more... ) -
And you wonder why your karma seems to be shit.
My landlords are an older couple. They like to do things the way they've always done them, they have their ideas about the way things work, in the world and in general, and are constantly remarking about how "things these days are so different" as if it's the beginning of the end. This is not necessarily an uncommon attitude for people who grew up ( Read more... ) -
Woo!
I took advantage of an evening "off" to finish typing up The Dreams In The Witch-House. Now if the book wanders off again, I don't have to wait around to find it before y'all can finish the story. So, want me to do another one? Not necessarily Lovecraft; we could take a little break and do some Shakespeare instead. Have a suggestion? I'll consider ( Read more... ) -
Yes, you can have too much
I'm working on yet another Pinwheel baby blanket for a friend's first baby. Because Monaneron got rid of a ton of her yarn (everything with wool in it, as half of her family is allergic, as well as a bunch of misc. acrylics and cottons that she didn't really have a purpose for), I've had quite a time trying to figure out what to do with it. I ( Read more... )
