First Day!
Dear Internet,
My first day of work was just fine. I didn’t cry in the bathroom and everyone answered my questions and introduced themselves and I remembered everyone’s names, except for one guy who I’ll have to ask again and feel like a jerk because I hate having to ask someone’s name twice.
I’m actually very good [...]
Happy Valentines Day!
So Sunday is Valentines Day. I bet you didn’t know that.
I’ve had sort of a mixed relationship with Valentines. I went to college at San Fransisco State in the 90’s and I wore overalls and listened to the Indigo Girls and Tori so at that point, Valentines Day was just a way for the greeting [...]
New Project
You guys, I watched so much bad television this weekend. I watched America’s Next Top Model, Jersey Shore, What Not to Wear, Project Runway (this one isn’t bad TV, it’s actually THE BEST) and Say Yes to the Dress.
I feel like my skull rotted in my head a little bit.
But I did learn that if [...]
My New Hiking Boots
Fancyhats was so worried about my hiking abilities, he bought me new shoes. They had them in black, but I thought the brown would be so much better as I forged a bold trail in the Portland wilderness.
Aren’t they so cute?
They’re little cupcakes for my feet.
Lego Love
Archie got legos from Fancymom for Christmas. When Archie unwrapped that gift, my first thought was meh followed shortly by: DEAR GOD I’M GOING TO STEP ON THOSE THINGS.
Meh because I’m a girl. And I’ve never owned a lego. To me, they look like little bits of things I’ll need to stoop to pick up [...]
Robbing the Last Bit of Joy from the Boy’s Life
I went to CostCo yesterday. I am a firm believer in CostCo. I like the idea that I would never have to leave my house ever especially when end times come and the cost of oil turns us into blood sucking robots, I will still have toilet paper!!
You should know that Archie loves yogurt. Loves [...]
Cupcakes and Pacts and Things
Okay, last night I dreamed that I had the best cupcake recipe and in my dream I thought OH! I have to share this with my blog readers. It’s the best! Now, in real life, I’ve never made cupcakes, but I do remember part of this amazing recipe that I dreamed of. Ready? Two of [...]
Back to Basics
This is going to be a knitting blog for a little while, maybe. I started out as a knit blogger five years ago. FIVE YEARS I’VE BEEN BLOGGING.
And yes, I’m going to keep blogging, but I need to hit my stride again, so knitting.
I saw the Citron pattern in knitty last week and I was [...]
I’m in a Relationship
You guys, I think I might be in a relationship with Hotel deLuxe. I’d like to marry it. Can I do that? Marry a hotel? Maybe New Hampshire could work on getting that into the state’s constitution or something?
We arrived and set our things in the room and promptly went to the Driftwood Room for [...]
Staycation
Tonight Fancyhats and I are having a staycation. We’re staying at Hotel deLuxe. If I’m ever a rich, precocious little girl whose adventures are documented in a picture book, I’m going to live at Hotel deLuxe.
Also, I’m going to drink at their bar, the Driftwood room. This bar makes me feel like I’m having an [...]
