Jen’s having a cheesy hair salon name contest. Leave her a comment with the name of an actual hair or pet grooming salon by April 19, midnight CDT. For ever five comments she receives, she’ll give away a copy of her new sock pattern. My entry was the Curl Up & Dye salon in Minneapolis. I did mention Sweeney Todd’s, even though it isn’t punny – just crazy.
“Thanks” to Van for exposing me to this disturbing catnip toy…
How’s this for a very odd knitted object?! That’s definitely not in my Ravelry queue – but it might be the only knitted object that isn’t! 😉
Although I do have finished knitting, it was finished too late in the evening to bother taking pictures – look for pictures on Friday! And nope, it wasn’t the “tease” from yesterday.
Fortunately, May can always be distracted from her HPFM* with the MGWT* or the Cat Dancer.
“What HPFM?! Drat! So close. I’ll get you, Cat Dancer, and your little dog Toto, too!” -Mayhem
*Hot Pink Furry Mouse/Mice
*Magic Goldfish Wand Toy, formerly the most beloved of all “flying” toys
You’re such a tease! The shaped cardigan? :: checking Ravelry :: Oh. That!
Oy.. I thought my queue was huge until I just saw yours. Talk about being in need of that organizing stuff they are talking about!!
You must be constantly entertaining May. She is on the move constantly, no?
There used to be a Curl Up & Dye on Grand Ave, wonder if it’s the same one as yours, just relocated. : )
There’s a salon in the gay district here called the King of Queens. Heh.
Anyhoo. Hey May! Would you scratch the bejeesus out of me if I tried to scritch your tummy while you’re on your back?!
Kitty aerobics class? No wonder she is such a sleek and svelte cat.
DH sent me the link to the lap top jumper yesterday… Said that’s what happened when you added knitting and geek! Lol!
Those catnip toys are creepy! With the little light glint and everything! LMAO!
Dude, I can sit for HOURS in front of my laptop, trying to come up with a title. Sometimes titling posts is the hardest part of blogging. 😉
I picked up a Cat Dancer yesterday too – Sammy ADORES it!
Chris- I personally love etsy. There are the most incredible things on it.
I think I’ll give the eyeballs a miss.
(and there is actually a Sweeney Todd’s hair salon in Toronto)
Hehe 🙂 Great salon name! We have Doo Daas here in the UK. I’m going to have to see if we still have the Cat Dancer as I’m definitely not getting a cat nip eyeball. 🙂
Are the HPFM and the MGWT aware of their new 2nd rung status? How will they take the isolation of not being loved as much? Have I watched too much Toy Story?
That woolly thing is disturbing. It looks like something that came out of a mental hospital from the 30’s!
Poor magic goldfish wand, left all alone in the closet. It seems like Evanrude’s favorite toy as of late is Simon’s big swishy tail. That poor dog has a cat attached to his butt most afternoons. Those eyeballs look pretty nuts.
Still lol at the Body Laptop Wooly Jumper, that was just too funny. Those eyeballs are scary, I may just have to get some.
I’ve always wanted a way to keep the air between my head and my computer screen warm. Finally, an answer to my prayers!!
oh – and http://www.overheardinnewyork.com/archives/014315.html
😉
The Mayhem’s eyes are very disturbing in that photo! There were many knitted pet clothing items at Lulu and Luigi’s. Deb has some mad ideas, I’m thinkin’.
Wow. You need a radar gun to clock that kitty. 🙂
Poor MGWT. It’s been replaced by the Cat Dancer. How could May choose cardboard on a wire* over the magic goldfish? *sigh*
*or at least, that’s what our Cat Dancers were made of. Yours looks about the same.
May looks like some sort of Hindu Goddess. Like Kali maybe. Death and destruction.
As a scientist, I wonder if May had the Cat Dancer and the MGWT bouncing about at the same time, which would she choose? We would have to do multiple trials of course to get good statistics, but I bet May would be up for the challenge.
I think the eyeball kat nip toy pattern actually comes from a book I almost need that has pincushion patterns in it. Yup, just imagine those eyeballs with pins in them. Xtra disturbing!
Get it May!!
If my cats played with cat toys (they prefer non-cat toys) I would totally get the eyeball for them!
That’s a good enough title.
LOL at the laptop jumper! May is dancing with the Cat Dancer.
I like the giant catnip toy. I cleaned out under the stove a couple of days ago and found 3 official cat toys, a rubber stopper from the bathroom, a toothbrush, several beer caps and 4 pens! As for the woolly jumper gadget thingie, what’s the point of it? blinders so you don’t get distracted?
The odd cat toy and that odd computer accessory both came from craftzine. Do you look there? They have the funniest, oddest, most interesting stuff.
Yipes on the cat toy! I am definitely not buying one of those. Or even two. I guess they prolly come in pairs…?
I thought my queue, with 40ish items in it, was out of control — then I looked at yours! Wow!!
And the eyeball cat toy — very creepy, but Harley would love it, because she loves rolly toys.
I just saw a (some?) great salon names while I was browsing hairstyle magazines at the salon yesterday. Damn, I’ve forgotten them all!
Aaaaaaaawwwwwww! Such a cute kitteh pic!
