I slept for five hours and now I'm awake, do dah, do dah. Tell my brain to go to sleep, oh the doo dah day.

Being constantly told to "watch to the end!" is guaranteeing I will never.

Tiny sweater complete! 3 month old size. #knitting

#showmeyourknits This is from 2011, Kranium Kowl by Jennifer Thompson. #knitting

so Google just added a bunch (more) AI bullshit to Chrome Go through these steps to disable it: opus.ing/posts/how-to... #chrome #aibullshit

"Am I getting old and my eyes need a break, or did this website change it's font?" Questions I do not want to be asking, yet here we are.

Tiny baby sweater in progress! #knitting Pattern is Assisted Hatching.

Day 5 of my staycation and I have done basically nothing. \o/

Tormenting myself on my 55th birthday by reading fanfic and short stories about familes who love and support one another, both found and born into. \o/ But at least I'm getting many good cries out of it?

I have made 160 charms out of scraps and sewn them together into 2x2s and about 12 are into 4x4 blocks now and my scrap bin does not look less full. Whoever snuck scraps into my scrap bin better get back here and take them.

Day One of my week staycation to celebrate my birthday: I have accomplished nothing other than reading lots of Dick Grayson fanfic and ate a brownie and bacon sammich. I am winning at Staycations!

Me: oh I can just cut some 5" charms from these leftovers to make a baby quilt. Also Me: oh I can add all these scraps from the scrap bin! Also also me: why does it look like I am making a king quilt.

First finished quilt top of the season! #quilting

Making oatmeal scotchie cookies, with additional dried cranberries, dark choc. chips, and banana. And some crushed pecans because the dough was too sweet with added banana. Stay tuned to see how they turn out. (There isn't really any doubt they will be yummy.)

Love when I get a new hand lotion that smelled fine in the store, only to discover after wearing it that yes indeed I am allergic thank you for asking.

Just got back from Eugene Bright! Art parade held in the evening, when it's dark, and the floats and everyone are lit up. I had very low expectations for my first time, and it was awesome! The Slug Queen was there!

OH MY GOD I just made my frozen dinner and discovered I got BAKED chicken not fried oh my god what the fuck. I just got home from work I need fried chicken what the fuck.

Why does every day require me to leave my home. Why I gotta put on going-out pants every fricking day.

Okay hear me out: mac n' cheese.

Happy Rosh Hashanah y'all.

Hate the phrase "make it your own!" If I follow the directions exactly, it is still "my own" because it IS MINE. What's wrong with the phrase "customise it"? Why do we replace perfectly good words and phrases with cutesy-isms which aren't even accurate?

It is super annoying how a single 20 min walk in the evening makes my morning fasting blood sugar about 20-30 points lower. (With no other changes to diet, etc.) Stupid walking for my stupid health.

Finished the baby (toddler) jacket! #knitting

I do not understand why peeing has to be the consequence of drinking liquid. Whose idea was this.

It's frustrating how normal it has become that every place is short-staffed.

My take on an old classic. #woodworking #cat

My current WIP is a baby surprise jacket (10th one.) #knitting

Starting to browse for holiday presents and holy fucking shit everything is expensive. Like, "I am not buying my partner anything for xmas" expensive. Fucking hell. I knew it was gonna be slim and tight this year, but not non-existent.

The ever exciting game of: Am I having a Bad Day (tm) or am I just tired? Am I tired or am I coming down with something? Am I coming down with something or am I just getting older? Is it all of the above? Who knows! But a short nap did NOT fix me.

Cowl complete! #equalisedcompagne #knitting @woollywormhead.bsky.social

4 of 7 panels complete on my #equalisedcompagne cowl. #knitting #FlatOutWoolly

Had someone come through my checklane today who got a SPN mag and I made a comment how I used to watch and they said they're going to a con in 2 weeks and I very much wanted to say "You've probably read my fanfic" but I wasn't sure that was the connection I wanted to make w/ a stranger at my job.

I just got up, scrolled here, found out the world is still getting worse (despite all the blocks and mutes i have going.) I am so tired.

Finished a Heath Sweater sized approx. 5-6 years. By trionadesigns.com #knitting This is pre-wash and block.

TFW a recipe says "two ingredients!" and there are seven distinct food items used in the dish. "This multi-vegetable stew with spices, herbs, and two types of protein only has one ingredient: YOU!" Actually, wait, that's a real recipe nevermind.

Pics to prove it happened! Not shown, the solid blacks I picked up just because I slways need black. #quilting This is for a summer wall hanging and is totally not Halloween colors which I have 7 Halloween quilts already.

1) I am home from quilt shopping and Irish pubbing; 2) I only blew past my budget by $20; 3) Fish and chips quite good, not the Best Ever but good; 4) So fucking tired.

Up an ungodly three hours early on my day off to drive north and be forced to a) visit a quilt shop with my MIL and then b) have a nice lunch at an Irish pub. Woe is I, for I am the one who proposed this and made the plans. I am a) having a nice energy drink and b) planning my nap later.

Don't understand why the sweater I am knitting won't finish itself while I play video games. Can I speak to the manager.

The worst part about knitting sweaters is that the math becomes 3D. What the fuck. Why is this happening to me. Why is topology even a thing.

Turns out the word 'arbiter' will trigger the Chess soundtrack to play in my head.

We love a themed outfit, but IG user @januaryregino and crew threw an absolute FIT 🦀 #loveourguests

Playing the game of guessing "How wrong is the Original Poster" when I see a post that is essentially "Back in the day when X fannish thing began" and OP is off by one, two, or five decades. This should be a drinking game, except I have to go to work in a couple hours and I can't be that drunk.

This is incredible

Dick Grayson debuted as Robin in April 1940, became Nightwing July 1984, so June 2028 will mark the dickquinox, the exact point he was Robin and Nightwing for the same amount of time.

Maybe buying some knitting patterns will fix me.

What is the first book that comes to mind when you think of re-reading a book.

In the PNW, "seasonal depression" is the despair felt when there is yet another heat wave in the forecast when it should already be cloudy and rainy and cool.
