Hello, blog! It’s been too long

Sorry about the whole abandonment thing, blog. I took a bit of a break to do some secret knitting, and then I wasn’t working on anything for a while, and then I became lazy. I blame summer. It’s do damn hot to do anything but sit around, drink margaritas, and bitch about humidity. Ugh, humidity. But! Now I can blog about the unbloggables, and I’ve even been knitting a bit. I started a sock.

Then abandoned it for another sock, which is still unphotographed.

I also started a new, non-crafty project – the 365 days, self-portrait one. I think it’s an interesting idea, and I’ve been at it for a little over a month. I’ve been maybe spending all of my blogging time on flickr these days. I’m planning on peppering this space with some of the 365 photos, so that we don’t have another of these long breaks apart.

I may be back, but I’m leaving again for a couple of weeks. Rob has a conference in Zurich and I’m going with him! I’m very excited to go far, far away, to a land that has (hopefully!) less humidity than Houston. However, I’m not leaving you out in the cold, blog! Time permitting, I’m going to write a couple of crafty posts that will magically appear while I’m away.

    Enjoy Zurich!

    I love that first shot. Weirdly, it reminds me of the music video for Tori Amos’ “A Sorta Fairytale”. Very nice.

    Cool sock and stuff! And yeah, I think you can pretty much count on any place other than Houston to be less humid!! That is so cool that you are going to Zurich!

    What, don’t they have the innernets in Zurich? I like the sock. And congrats on the 365/6 photo thingy – I wish I had a decent camera to do that. Or liked myself more. Have a fun trip. Take camera.

    That sock/beer shot is my all-time favourite knitting photo. Unites my love of beer, knitted socks and green yarn!
