- Knitters who’ve given up in despair of me ever giving away a knitting-related book (even though there is knitting in Keeping Promise Rock – Amy reports that all of her books, except her short story, If I Must, include knitting)… Wait, where was I? Oh yeah, knitters who’ve given up in despair of me ever giving away a knitting-related book, hang in there a few more weeks! On February 25, Crazy Aunt Purl (aka Laurie Perry… or is it the other way around?) will be visiting SoC, plus I’ll kick off a giveaway of her new book, Home Is Where the Wine Is.
- Yay! It’s warm again here.
- Warm being in the mid-20s (F) during the day.
- No need to even zip my jacket.
- Of course, that also means it’s snowing quite regularly.
- And apparently all the weather changes are triggering sinus migraines. (Thanks for helping me put together the puzzle pieces, Debby!)
- On the plus side, while this is my pager/on-call week, I have yet to see the pager.
- The guy handing off the pager had some complicated vehicular crisis, so hasn’t been to work this week.
- This guy has so much bad vehicular luck that I sort of hate to park in the same ramp he does…
- Rumor has it my no-pager luck ends today.
- Still, as Jeanne pointed out, any missed pager time during pager week is good!
- That new laptop I might’ve purchased? *ahem* Is now mostly set up and running speedily. 🙂
- Thanks to Mandi of Smexy Books, where I won a copy of Ecstasy Unveiled by Larissa Ione!
- And thanks to Amber Allure and Reviews by Jessewave, where I won an ebook copy of Quinn’s Hart!
“Hee hee! No one will ever find me. Best. Hiding. Spot. Ever.” -Chaos
“Hey, how’s it going under there, big kitty?” -Mayhem
“What?! How did she find me??” -Chaos
“Oh, and that box makes your butt look big.” -Mayhem
“…” -Chaos
Looks like you’re having a good week! I love that you don’t want to park near pager guy; I’d feel like that too!
.-= Patti´s last blog ..Under Construction =-.
Pager guy and I might be related.
This is an unfortunate angle for Chaos 😉
I hope you enjoy Lore!
.-= Mandi´s last blog ..My Three Lives =-.
Mayhem, while you’re not very subtle or lady like you are right.
Hope the weather straightens out, Chris, so your sinuses do too.
.-= margene´s last blog ..Blu la la =-.
Having weather related headaches/migraines is no fun as my kids and I have them often. (Well, there’s also the fact that you can only shovel the driveway so many times before the snow also becomes no fun, too. It has past reached that point for me.)
Anyway, hope your headaches get better or you find something that helps them.
.-= Alison´s last blog ..Lamy Pens =-.
Oooo, no pager?! Excellent!
Heh. Yeah, warmer weather here means damp weather and sore knees! 🙁
Hee hee, good one Mayhem!

A couple of weekends ago it was raining and then the temperature immediately dropped about a thousand degrees. Dave woke up the next day feeling really sluggish; he told me he thought he was hung over. Only problem? He didn’t drink the night before. I think it was the weather fucking him up – a drop in pressure like that is bound to screw with people’s heads. Literally.
Anyway. Chaos, I have to agree with May. That box makes your butt look big. 😉
You know, I feel like I’m wearing that box all the time.
The weather f’s with my head, too. Makes it muzzier than usual. For example, I had to read about the pager 3 times to get that you didn’t have it. Maybe I should go back to bed?
.-= wren´s last blog ..Handcuffed Hottie in a Hood, part the third =-.
I’m going to mark my calendar so I don’t miss out on the Crazy Aunt Purl visit!
YaY for no pager; sorry your luck runs out today.
Silly Chaos 🙂
.-= Julie´s last blog ..What’s This? Knitting? On a Knitting Blog? =-.
Congrats on the book wins Chris! Ecstasy Unveiled is soo good. 😉
Yeah, it’s snowing here too, so jealous of that CJ heading to Mexico.
Nice hiding spot there Chaos!!
Have a good pager free day! 😉
L
great waffle eating hiding spot
.-= furiousball´s last blog ..Pig Stomach Night! =-.
This was your lucky week, except for the headache thing. Let me know how Quinn’s Hart is.
Chris- Is that the box from the laptop you may-or-may-not have purchased?
Hope you feel better soon.
Congrats on your wins!
.-= Lily´s last blog ..New Books Available – Week 5 =-.
Does that box mean you have an exciting new (black?) pair of Keens?
.-= naomi´s last blog ..eye candy friday =-.
Did you also might’ve purchased new Keens?? Details please!! I haven’t had a new pair in months.
.-= kitkatknit´s last blog ..I think I need time lapse technology =-.
Oh Chris, I do hope you feel better! (Hugs to you)!
Missing pager guy… hummm… He might like the way it goes bbbuuuzzzzzzz, lmbo!! Hope to make you laugh!!
Oh Chaos.. you forgot that May is the all knowning Princess, she sees all!!!
Lol, that is one great hiding place 🙂
.-= blodeuedd´s last blog ..Monday Mayhem =-.
How disappointing. From your title, I thought you were going to tell us about a magical product to make our butts look SMALLER. Or at least firmer.

.-= Cheryl S.´s last blog ..Shauna Progress =-.
Chaos, don’t worry its true, if you can’t see us, we can’t see you. I’m sure that’s some other cat’s butt there.
.-= Rebekah´s last blog ..My Yarn Vacation =-.
Does this box make my butt look big?
Don’t answer the question. Just avert your eyes and walk away!
.-= Seanna Lea´s last blog ..some mornings =-.
Looking forward to your CAP review/interview! I’ve got her book on my “should I buy” list.
I really expected there to be an entry regarding litter boxes, I’m glad that it was shoe boxes.
Bummer on the migraines. I’m going through a spate of them myself.
Chaos, you need to convince Chris to buy some over-the-knee boots, and then the box might be big enough to cover your *ahem* bootie.
.-= Brenda´s last blog ..FO: Nubby Cardigan =-.
I want to go buy the Larissa Ione book. Haven’t made it to a bookstore yet, though.
Hmm. I’m still waiting for the scandal. So far it seems to be mostly a statement of fact. 😉
.-= Nicole´s last blog ..February Goals =-.
Weather and migraines – just go together.
Butt doesn’t look big, Chaos.
Going to follow laptop linky…
.-= trek´s last blog ..In which trek drives by =-.
The title of this post made me LOL. heh. big butt box…snicker
.-= Carol´s last blog ..I’d Rather Be…. =-.
Poor Chaos! 🙁 No it doesn’t, I swear!
Hallelujah on the missing pager time. I can relate 100%. My week is coming in March. ugh!
Congrats on the book wins!! Hope you like Lore’s story. 🙂
.-= Donna-FantasyDreamer´s last blog ..Wanted: Blood of the Demon by Diana Rowland =-.
So shiny. And butt-enhancing!
.-= Karen B.´s last blog ..Instant Recycling’s Gonna Get You =-.
Don’t worry Chaos. It’s a nice shiny butt. It’s the box that looks small. It looks like Keen box too. 🙂
.-= Sydney´s last blog ..Knitting! =-.
Yes, it’s a Keen box. Yes, the contents were black. :p
hehe, kitty butt. They always seem to forget that part when they are hiding.
I just love kittehs in boxes!! I have a priority mail box that’s living in my bedroom on its side because both of the cats *love* to curl up in it. No matter how much of them fits! 🙂
Yeah – those hidey-animals named Chaos tend to forget about their bottom sides.
“Warm” here, too. Yeah…..
And yay for Laurie visiting – but I already have her book!
.-= janna´s last blog ..Knitting =-.
ooh laurie is visiting, she’ll boot your butt to knit, lol. went looking for her new book last weekend but couldnt find it
.-= turtle´s last blog ..Awe! =-.
Now THAT is a book giveaway I can get into. Excellent work, ma’m!
Weather changes = sinus headaches? I wonder if that is why I have had to take Imitrex twice in the past two days, after taking it about twice in the past year…
.-= kmkat´s last blog ..Talking cat. =-.
Too cute, these box-butt pics (and the bickering). Sorry to hear you’re suffering from migraines 🙁
But congrats on the book winnings!
.-= ErotRomReader Janna´s last blog ..January Round-Up & Catching Up on My Reviews =-.

I see Chaos is out of the shopping bags and under boxes now….. What next…
