Pictures OF me

When you’re sick of looking at me, check the category list to view pictures I took myself.

Valery hat

A super-quick knit from the book “Hip Knit Hats” by Cathy Carron. There are still a bunch of ends to weave in, stuffed up inside the crown. And I did the bind-off too tight, so it’ll leave a line on my forehead… oh well. Beauty is pain. :-)


Haircut (finally)

Yep I’ve got wild curly hair when it’s shorter, so get over it. You’re not gonna tame that beast — best to just whack it into some reasonable shape and let it do what it’s gonna do.

I’m attempting to smile with my eyes btw.


Screwdrivers aren’t big

Although, to be fair, I do have pretty large hands for a woman. Man-hands, practically.


DORK!

I made a necklace for my Screwdriver. :-)


My new Screwdriver

screwdriver

Beautifully handmade by Trog at ecigscrewdriver.com. It’s a personal vaporizer, aka electronic cigarette. I’m not getting baked, just being a dork.

Hello from Posterous, by the way!


Vaping away

My stash of e-juiceMy stash of e-juice… deliciously flavored propylene glycol plus nicotine, for use with those miraculous new personal vaporizers, aka electronic cigarettes. I’ve ordered even more juice for stockpiling in case it really does get banned in the U.S.

Vaping awayI got my new e-cig from Phil at e-smokeytreats.com. He’s a one-man three-person operation — slim selection but only the good stuff. Phenomenal customer service too, and super-speedy delivery.

Please sign this petition to keep e-cigs legal and available!

A new hat! Using a pattern by Elizabeth Zimmermann (for the third time). This one’s for myself, I think. And I’m not going to felt it this time. :-)

Fingerless mitts

Oh I really like them. So warm and squooshy, and an easy pattern too. (Wil took the photo for me.)

Actual garment

Hey look what I made! My first actual garment that isn’t a scarf, hat or pair of socks. :-)

Actual socks

Pretty pretty. And waaaarm. And squooooooshy!! My very first, and consequently very favorite pair of hand knitted socks.

There are a few flaws in my knitting that I’m well aware of, which I’m not going to discuss here. (Any more.) Experienced sock knitters may notice those flaws right away just looking at this picture… I’d appreciate it if they’d just shut it, for now, and notice the things that aren’t screwy-looking. And praise my mad newbie sockmaking skillz.

What do you think. Do I look smarter? More likely I look like I’ve been miserable with a cold lately, because I have.

  • The Leopard-compatible version of SuperDuper is FINALLY out. So happy. Time Machine alone wasn’t cutting it for me. http://tinyurl.com/6krpz #
  • Voted for Barack Obama. (I moved here from Illinois y’know.) Hope he gets it, but either way this is a pretty exciting time in history, eh? #
  • I Voted!
