Special thanks to Mouse for my newly modified sidebar avatar!
Scout’s launching a new sock (and more) club – read all about Scout’s Indie Swag Club, which is going to have a very limited number of members to start with. You can sign up Wednesday, September 13, 9 pm EST. Anyone want to take bets that all the memberships will be filled by 9:10 pm?!
Celtic Kelly is starting a Fall Equinox to Winter Solstice knitalong involving tweedy yarn – check it out!
Reading
Men and Other Mammals by Jim Keeble. Interesting twist on British chick lit – would you call it “lad lit”?! Not a life changing book, but I did read the whole thing at least. (Why, yes, I am utterly lukewarm on this book!)
Cue the Easter Bunny by Liz Evans. I think this is probably the most recent book about British PI Grace Evans. I much enjoyed this and wish the first book from the series would hurry up and get here!
Dating Dead Men and Dating Is Murder by Harley Jane Kozak. The only two books (so far) featuring LA greeting card writer Wollie Shelley. I am eagerly awaiting another book! Bless the serendipitous browse through the actual physical library – I usually come across some great stuff.
Ok, back to the Harlotation on Sunday in Eau Claire. We saw many more folks than I’m going to remember – so please forgive me and leave details in the comments! Vicki Knitorious (with Deb of Wound Too Tight here),
Jeanne of k3tog (really, she isn’t always so serious – trust me, and check out the cool striping yarn she dyed),
CursingMama and Mr Motorcycle (so brave to come along),
Beadslut (ohmigod, she has a decent picture of me!), KnittyMama and KnittyBaby, Catherine of Yogurt and Granola, Jess of Mikknit, kmkat,
Christy of Purling Away, Stephania of Moraie Knitting, Kelle of Knits and Giggles, and many, many more…
And now for something completely different, I thought I would try to illustrate the size difference between Chaos and Mayhem… Note that her collar hangs loosely on her neck… and that her tail is the same length as Chaos’ tail. Poor stubby-tailed Chaos!
I’m happy to see that Chaos seems to have taken to Mayhem pretty well(or at least in public). She is a cutie.
How adorable! (I’m still trying to catch up on blogs so I’ve been out of the loop:) She is a sweet kitty! And of couse, Chaos is as well. (We wouldn’t want him to get too jealous:)
Geez, louise – it took years before my 2 cats would eat together at the same time! If one was there the other would walk away until the food area was “safe” again!
They look like a cute couple!
Godsakes, I get *really* busy and you get a new kitten and see the harlot and do all this cool stuff (except getting a cold cos that is waaaay uncool) and I didn’t even know cos I was busy writing a talk and going to a conference to give it!
