Vibrant.(Still) Unrepentant. Badass. Old. Queer

There be no picture here, though, because my crappy rechargeable batteries can't hold a charge for more than 12 hours apparently. GAH. But, now, I have 12 little baby chili pepper plants all in cute little rows in front of my building. Don't step on them!!! Please ... Hopefully they all won't die a horrible death. I kept three in a pot indoors, just in case. If they do all survive (and produce), I will have enough Thai Dragon Chili Peppers for a lifetime! Enough to share with my neighbors and, maybe, some lucky chili pepper loving blogfriends! *woot* In other news, the SuperSecret Long Overdue Knitting Project is FINISHED! I hope to be mailing it to a lucky (and, recently, infrequent) reader of mine! After it is received I will post some photos (assuming that I remember to charge my crappy rechargeable batteries before I mail the package). And, at 5PM today, International Liver Resting Week 2007 will be OVER! *woo hoo* I plan to partake of the Official Intoxicatin...

Yesterday, Mush made me sign up for this thing called Twitter. Here be my page . Now you can all sign up to be my friends! Yay! When I got home from work, I started weeding the little overgrown garden plot in front of my building, but it started raining. Bah. It was a quick thunderstorm, so, about an hour later, I returned to do more weeding. Then, I planted 4 cute little chili pepper seedlings into a long trough-like planter, using some of our co-op's homemade compost and the last of my potting soil. Hopefully, they will not die. Today, after work, between laundry runs, I plan to finish weeding and plant the remaining chili peppers in the garden. I will take photos. Maybe. **We interrupt this very important blog post to note that vuboq hates weaving in ends on the long-awaited super-secret knitting project. Thank you** Later, DUN tried to tempt me with alcoholic beverages. And, then, she called to ask for advice on how to make a mixed drink! I resisted the siren song of the Evil ...

International Liver Resting Week 2007, Day 1. I got home from work around 5:30. "I could really use a martini," I thought, opening up the freezer to pull out a chilled martini glass. "Oh, wait, it's International Liver Resting Week 2007, Day 1. Damn." Mmm. Ginger ale. I decided to finish the Long-Awaited Super-Secret Knitting Project. I only had 6 rows to go and to teach myself how to do a three-needle bind-off . In the middle of the three-needle binding off, my parents called. "Now, I really need a drink," I thought, heading to the freezer to admire the chilled bottles (yes, bottles) of gin. Alas, once again, I remembered that it was International Liver Resting Week 2007, Day 1. Phone call finished. I resumed the binding off, only to learn that the three-needle binding off technique does not work all that well on circular needles. Perhaps, the instructions should include a note: If you are using circular needles, it would behoove you to transfer the w...
