Pensive Frog

OK, I was having a horrid day, the kind where you can’t decide whether to kick a hole in the wall, strangle a co-worker, or cry.
Then I saw these bunnies.
OK, now I’m in a good mood again. And I have my Christmas list all sorted.
Lots more ridiculously fluffy angora bunny pics here.

I think we can all agree that the Intarweb is a fabulous crutch for the socially impaired. Communicating via e-mail and blog posts ensures that we never have to speak off the cuff. Rather, all our thoughts are carefully crafted, re-worded and teased into something that… well… if it’s not perfect, at least [...]

Patterns from the next Interweave Knits are available here.
Discuss.
I’m digging the Brooklyn hat, but I doubt I could pull it off.

The new Knitty is up, and most of the patterns are kinda weird for me. But, I love the knitted nautilus toys! And, after looking around on the designer’s blog, I found a great compilation of “geeky” knitting patterns, which included a lot of patterns I’ve never seen before. I really like [...]

I just learned something new! Apparently, it’s possible (if rare) to end up with a different speech accent after having a stroke. It happened to this American woman, who now sounds as though she was born and raised in London. And this woman, from England, speaks like a Parisian after her stroke! [...]

If this story on Cockeyed doesn’t make your blood run cold, I don’t know what will.

If you thought that credit card companies would recognize a clearly fradulent credit card application, [...]

So I’m attending at least 2 weddings this summer (there’s still time, ladies) and I’ve decided that it is time for me to learn how to dance. In my mind, there are several options:

I just can’t get enough of Dinosaur Comics. And now there’s a book!
My birthday is coming up.
Just sayin’.
And yes, I have put a little bit of thought into making a comic of my own. I’ve even done a dry run on the back of the [...]

Perhaps the worst post title ever, but everything is all a-scatter in my brain-ular region.
1. Help, loyal readers, help! I need some ideas for places to find cool handmade jewelry online. There’s always something cool listed on Daily Candy, but the jewelry tends to be on the expensive side.
2. [...]

These pictures are almost identical to the ones I posted last year, but I can’t help it! The cherry treese are so beautiful in person. If you’re in Seattle, do stop by the UW quad and take it in before the blossoms begin to fall.
