This morning I saw wild pigs in my yard. Wild pigs! Two big ones, and two little ones. Root root.

And tomorrow the yarn store opens! Wheeeee!!!

W00t!

This time tomorrow I'll be on my way to Orlando with three dear knittas to catch a plane to Rhinebeck. I *so* can't wait. Lorena and Ginger and I, along with our *wonderful* husbands, have spent every free moment in the last 3 or 4 weeks in the shop. We took a 36 hour vacation back around Necronomicon, and haven't stopped other than that. We. Are. Beat. And while this will be a working vacation (Our first tax deductible business trip! Hee!), it will also be a vacation full of friends, beer, and knitting. On a beautiful porch. Right up the hill from OCC. I wonder if Mikey wants to learn how to knit... Anyhoo, watch this space for mobile blogging. I'll try to remember to twitter once in a while, too.

I can has ahtum now plz?

It's 50 degrees out this morning, and I saw a leaf fall from a sycamore tree. I guess in Florida it isn't so much autumn as it is not-quite-as-hot-season. But I'll take what I can get.

You know this has to be good...

...if it got me away from my yarn shop stupor and got me blogging. It's a flushing toilet for cats, and is the greatest invention ever. I want one right now! But there's no running water near my cat room, so I'll have to wait until we build the dome and have the plumbers run a pipe in and out of the cat room.

Last night I was someone's +1 at the Hank III/AssJack show at the (former) Florida Theatre. What a flashback. Phil was even there to make things feel realistic for me. Good times, bad times. Loved 'em all.

Hey JC, doesn't Hank owe you a drink or something? I should have tried to collect on that.
