I have been working on this scarf for two years.  Oh, a simple skinny scarf knitted on 10 gauge needles with black wool yarn shouldn’t take two years, but you know how it is.  I’d get busy and put it down for awhile.  One of my original bamboo needles got too badly warped to knit [...]

One year ago today, I decided to invite over an acquaintance to my (then) house. Over the next three months, we began seeing one another with increasing frequency, and on January 13th, to be exact, we began officially dating.  But since it’s us, we’ve opted to celebrate the “fun” anniversary and (maybe) the sappy anniversary.

During the Fall semester of 2007, I met this major pain in the ass, hereby known as Libertarian —-. Libertarian —- worked my last fucking nerve, but I thought he was attractive enough to try working my magic on.

MY WORLDS ARE GOING TO COLLIDE TODAY. I AM NOT SUPER PUMPED FOR THIS. Unless by “super pumped,” you mean “super nervous.” The two libertarians in my life are going to cream their panties over recycling being a waste of tax dollars and ripping on me. I would put a frowny faced emoticon in there, [...]
