National Take Your Pancakes to Work Day

I participated this year!

Apparently

I took my earrings off in my sleep and laid them neatly by my pillow.

Blog Lomblad

Featuring my arm (big watch, of course) and my mysterious parcel.

Man!

I miss the woodpile we had in the hall at our old apartment.

Our new place is too small. Which sucks because this is basically the best board EVER:





Greg even agreed.

Disturbing encounter

Under the highway.

Just one

Of the short stack of AMAZING books I found tonight!



I cannot look at this without giggling.

Delivery

To my office today.

This book Greg ordered:





The journal of Richard Henry Dana, Jr., during his two years as a sailor—in 1834–36!

And it's illustrated!



"A ship is like a lady's watch, always out of repair."

Good choice, Greg.

FOUND!

It's, like, the exact twin!

Except plastic.

November 1

Down with jack-o'-lantern and witch.



Up with Pilgrims and turkey!

Found

Your wig.

Found tonight

In a bag on the sidewalk:



Ambivalent snowman.

It's a magnet!



And this thing:



It's a . . . hot mess.

Special-needs adoption

Horsey with bedbugs seeks loving home.

(Next to this pile were two big mattresses wrapped in plastic and sealed with tape. UGH-H-H-H!)

Getting dressed

AWWWW yeah.



Found six bucks in my jeans.

Hey little dude

You look worried!





Can't say I blame you.

James Farm

They're the best . . . from the nest!



Yep, you don't want to be hanging around a bunch of chickens without a hat, gloves, and proper footwear. (It also helps if you're drunk.)

Voudou

I found this talisman on our front door this morning.



It's--a garland of fetal skulls!



Disgusting.

New thing

Patches!



It's going to be a baby blanket.

(UPDATE: finished!)

Japanese snacks

I love this place.

Besides the cafe they have a zillion awesome crochet books (the Japanese make the best craft books)!

It's only October

Someone needs to remind these people of that fact.



I nominate myself!

Best. Invention.

Pants that are like tights made out of a sweater.

It's three in one!!

HALLWAY UPDATE

Backpack kitty is gone!

But say hi to this fellow:



(He's bashful.)

Found!

An acorn!!



This is going straight out the kitchen window.

Sunday

I reheated 8-hour-old coffee instead of making a fresh pot because:

a) I'm thrify.

b) I'm lazy.



c) All of the above.

PICKLE DISASTER

Photogenic!



This guy agrees.

Biskwits!

The best thing about making them is:



Leftoavers for breakfast the next day!!

Garage roof

Of landlady.



This is where I am storing my winter nut supply.



(I just chuck them out the kitchen window.)

Canadian Thanksgiving

Combined with sister's birthday!



Heirloom taters = pink!

Found

A dime.

That's ten cents!

Hungry?

Cuz I know where there's a phallic squash.

Plan ahead

Order your turkey now.



So we can send this dude out in the woods to catch one for ya:



(Or maybe he's the turkey?)

What?

"Planeside" is a word now?



Answer: no.
