So, as a genX-er, I was without consistent access to television from 1986-1998 and thus have odd gaps in my cultural knowledge. Question (complimentary): I just started watching Twin Peaks, and I'm wondering how the heck this show was shown on network television?

#showmeyourknits lace week. One of the first garments I attempted was the Iguazu Falls vest from Barbara Benson's book, Big Yarn, Beautiful Lace Knits.

I'm just happy to announce that my nephew and niece-in-law welcomed their first baby today, though their cats may have opinions of their own. There are some bright spots in the universe, and I'm choosing to focus on the people who matter to me right now.

Sobbing. I could not put this book down. A reminder that terrible choices are sometimes all we have left, and maybe that's okay, but maybe we don't have to accept what the world is giving us.

Your honor, I ate the fur that the human had just pulled off the brush she was using to brush me because I need to yak a hairball in a strategic position later.
