Well, the past couple of weeks have been insane.
There was, of course, Rhinebeck, where I suffered near-total camnesia. Seriously. I met wonderful people, bought beautiful yarn and fiber, ate fantastic food, and basically spent the entire weekend squeeing. You wanna see the pictures I took?

Sometime in the near-ish future (probably next summer) Bradon and I will be buying our first house. We’ve been discussing it since we got engaged, and while we’re aware of the realities of our finances and the local market we sometimes like to engage in a bit of wishful thinking.

After spending a good portion of the day on the phone with our vet and our local animal control, Bradon and I decided to take our little visitor down to Denver Dumb Friends League. DDFL has a special place in our hearts, being where we got both Tyberius and Isadora, and I trust them [...]
(Okay, part of the lack of blogging has been me being a lazy ass, but I’m also having a lot of computer weirdness. I’m tempted to say “if my blog looks down to you, let me know,” but I’m not that stupid. However, if (for example) you can read me on your RSS [...]
