R.E.M live tonight on NPR
For those of you who are into R.E.M. (or are rabid about them like me), you can listen to a live concert from Stubbs (in Austin) tonight at 9 on their website. *squee for me* I can't get the link to work, but if you go to the NPR.org site, the "Live Tonight" button to get there. -

Anita is one of the most popular in southwest Iowa. (it's a lake, not a she)
Don't worry, Anita is a tough lady (damn straight)
Anita is a necromancer and vampire hunter in a time when vampires are protected by law--as long as they don't get too nasty. (there's lots of this, Anita is a main character of the Vampire Hunter series)

Spinny goodness
Here's a couple of pics of what I've been spinning recently. I bought the roving at Oregon Flock and Fiber in September. It's Corriedale wool, 2-ply.

fake fur tutorial
Because I have all the time in the world...

a whole lot of nothing
Sunday was pretty much a wash. Mostly loafing, cocktails and napping with a short jaunt to the coffee shop and farmer's market. Staggered napping didn't work in my favor - I never did get on the loom for fear of waking the daywalker. I did manage to finish the seams on the wool part of the new coat, only to determine that I don't love how big the ( Read more... )
