In Trouble

Being a very bad girl and blogging from class. Biblical Languages and Interpretation, to be specific, where I am learning that the Hebrew script has a lot in common with D’ni. If anyone gets that reference, I will be thoroughly amazed, and I will have to get together with you for a major nerdfest. But … More In Trouble

Fly By

We had a lovely three days and nights in Ligonier, PA. See my facebook for the full photo extravaganza. We partied, we played games, we hiked, we read, I knit until I ran out of yarn. Two days later I’ve been so busy still playing around and working at my NEW JOB that all I … More Fly By

Jared & I are going to be away for a few days – escaping civilization to spend half of reading week in the mountains.

They hold the sock aloft, exclaim ‘darn!’ and drop it … More Reinforcing Heels

I finally got my entries back from the State Fair – I moved before the fair ended, so I didn’t get my stuff back until this week. Now that it’s all in one place, I think I can say I did, um, hm, pretty well! It’s a little weird coming right out there and tooting … More The Haul
