JessaLu Knits (and Spins!)

Archive for September, 2008

…if you only have 101 yards of handspun and want to knit a foaming waves or cresting wave or…wth is it called again? ohyeah, Morning Surf Scarf? (I knew it was wavy…kinda)

You knit one…

…only it’s not long enough to be a scarf (it’s like two and a half feet long and I only had like six inches of yarn left, btw) but you want to wear it in a scarf-like fashion so you decide…

…to turn it into a cowl. [Raveled here]

Pretty magical of me, dontcha think? ;o)

…had a contribution to Dave’s ‘AssWatch’ before, but while we were watching the balloon launch on Sunday morning I saw something that I thought might fit the criteria…

…what bothers me the most is that it appears to be somewhat anatomically correct.  ;o)

In honor of today being International Talk like a Pirate Day I give you this quiz:

You Are 45% Pirate

Ahoy matey! Ye can think o' yerself as a swashbuckler in trainin'.     If ye study hard an 'do what the captain tells ye, ye may be gettin' part o' the booty. Get to work on yer pillagin', swordfightin', an' drinkin'. Ye dasn't want to end up in Davy Jones' locker, so make sure ye pipe down when the captain be around.

Would You Make a Good Pirate?

I also give you a couple new links that I forgot to include yesterday – have a few paperbacks laying around that you don’t plan on reading again but don’t really know what to do with them?  Put them up on BookMooch.  Oh, I found another site that I like ZipList, it helps me keep a virtual grocery list that automatically categorizes the items I add so I can find them by aisle.  Another good site for finding bargains?  Bargainist.

Also, is anyone else out there anywhere near as excited as I am that Dancing with the Stars starts back up again next week?  Or Heroes?  Or The Office?  Or Survivor?  Monday can’t come fast enough for this TV addict.

Sorry I have no eye candy for this week, I hope to get back in the swing of photographing everything around me this weekend.  ;o)
