eBay fun and wrong items, messing around with my fiddle, and new houseplants
Ah, the joys of eBay… So, a while back I bought a pair of sequinned bellydance face veils because bullshit reasons. I bought 2 thinking that down the road I might make them into a bra top or something. This week, they arrived. Well, not really. See, I ordered...
Snowy Saturnalia, web series progress, and shamanism searches
Happy Saturnalia! It’s on now (well, yesterday) through December 23rd, and we have a full moon tonight, and the solstice is on the 21st. So feast and drink and all the rest, folks. I doubt we’ll have a white Christmas based on the forecast for next week, but we...
A potential disclaimer for my upcoming web series
Maybe it’s just paranoia I got from my father earlier this week when I was showing him some of the “cast” for the web series I’m working on and he got all spazzed about that I could get sued by people, I dunno. And I didn’t mention that my...
More snow, less clutter, and some actual progress
Well, winter has started, sorta. We had some snow this week, and I got up to shovel and salt on Monday morning, even though I thought there was a good chance that it would be melted by afternoon (and it was). It did stay cold most of the week...
Snow, gear, and Fortuna
I missed last week’s blog because… well, I didn’t feel like writing it, I guess. And not much had really happened worth updating about. But let’s not be so lazy this week. First up, when I woke this morning there was a dusting of snow on the ground. Of...
Lighter red, Barbie Ferrari, and the saga of the furnace non-filter
So… I bleached my hair, as I debated doing last week. Not that you can really tell, but it is a lighter shade of red despite 20 minutes with bleach sitting on there and then dyeing over with a medium blonde shade called “California.” Oh well. Baby steps. Or...
Flannels and quilts and it’s time to dye my hair again
Well, the rains have come off and on this week, and monsoon season seems to be upon us for the next few months. Still, there’s been some sun, and the garden seems to be enjoying the change. Inside the house, October means the start of flannel sheet season, which...
Equinox, escape plans, and a reflush in the garden
Another week gone by. Happy fall! The equinox was this week and I was kinda thinking how I need to be a little bit better at being more in tune with nature. Not in a granola and Greenpeace sorta way, but in a paying attention sorta way. Generally, the...
New Zamos, rain, and dye jobs
Well, we got our first nasty rainstorm yesterday, with over an inch of it. I’m sure the garden appreciated the water, we’ll see how much of a flush of new growth things get in the aftermath. I bet Zamo would not be too thrilled with the return to sweater...
It’s beginning to look a lot like the rainy season, plus the return of cross-stitch and a character interview excerpt
It’s raining again this week, and I’m sure I soon won’t consider that worth mentioning other than to complain. For now, though, it’s refreshing. And I’m sure the garden appreciates it, since I’ve been neglectful. I dunno if it started last June when I fell down the stairs and...
