My mind is a strange place to live in June 28, 2006
Here are some phrases that have gone flitting through my head in the last two weeks. I’ve wanted to write blog posts around them, but alas, nothing is forthcoming, so I’m just putting them out there.
- Set phasers on “Maim!”
- Beef and chocolate are two great tastes that probably don’t taste great together.
- I wonder if Rachel Ray would be so perky if she switched to decaf crack.
- And that’s when reality and I parted ways.
- Speedo Guy was in the elevator last night, but he wasn’t wearing a speedo.
- Why weren’t we advised about the addictive properties of funk?
- Captain, request permission to kick your ass.
Ho-hum…
I do have knitting updates. I started knitting a pair of mittens a few weeks ago, and got the first one done in less than a weekend. It’s the second mitten that’s given me issues - I’ve started knitting it twice, only to get past the thumb and realize I cast on the wrong number of stitches (too many, then too few). So, to avoid further frustrations, I’m knitting some squares for Cynthia’s Warming Grace project. Then I went on a stitch marker-making frenzy a few weeks ago, and I have some markers for her prize bin, too.
Okay, I’m tired now. Off to sleep!
It’s a miracle that I didn’t snort Dr. Pepper all over my keyboard when I read the Rachel Ray one. hehehe
who is rachel ray? sorry- i live under a rock, where it’s very dark and wet, these days. when will it stop raiiiining? do you have any photos of your stitch markers? i made some quite lo-fi ones for a swap & am praying the recipient doesn’t just recoil in horror.
Hey! It’s dark and wet under my rock too these days!
Rachel Ray is a hyper-annoying “food personality” (I flat out refuse to call her a chef) who has a couple of shows on Food TV. She cranks out uninspiring processed food in 30 minutes, and has a nasal, whiney voice. Some people find her 30 minute meals to be a life-saver, and that’s fine; I just think she’s dull and repetitive.
I’ll take some pics of the stitch markers and send them to you.

glad to know that i am not missing out on anything re: rachel ray, then, by not watching TV. craft blogs take up enough of my time, thankyouverymuch.
