Go, click the above, watch it before it disappears Sunday night at midnight! I had no idea it was only there for a week, so I’m lucky I caught it. Also read Joss Whedon’s letter further down on the main page, “Read the Master Plan”.

Yesterday, June 14th, was World Wide Knit in Public Day, and I drove about an hour away to Charlottetown to meet 4 other members of Ravelry:

After hearing the essay, I immediately went to the source website and printed it, thinking that I would show it to my [...]

After reformatting the computer today, I was almost unable to get back into my blog. I didn’t remember the password, and the e-mail address is one that I don’t actually use anymore, which was disabled last year.

It’s been a hectic weekend, spilling into the week. On Saturday we packed the remaining things in the apartment (which, admittedly, was most of it). During that time we found a lot of things to throw out, and I went to Value Village more than once to happily donate items that I didn’t want to [...]

This has absolutely nothing to do with knitting or crocheting. But I thought I’d give it a try.
At Critical Hits, a gaming news blog, they’re having a vote for a tournament called the Real Ultimate Showdown. I thought I’d direct more people over there - people who like Science Fiction and Fantasy, and gaming, will [...]

It’s very simple. When this is passed on to you, copy the whole thing, skim the list and put a * star beside those that you like. (Check out especially the * starred ones.)
Add the next number (1. 2. 3. 4. 5., etc.) and write your own blogging tip for other bloggers. Try to [...]
