zombie famous.

back in october, i participated in the zombie walk.

my friend, matt, filmed our escapade, and the seattle p.i. picked up the video and featured on their blog. you can read about it and watch the movie here. i also posted it below...and yes, that is alena and me tossing my baseball wishing it were brains featured as the video still.



ps. this is my second time to be featured by the seattle p.i. this year! i guess i am the ideal seattle citizen...

falling short.

crafting into the late night has caused great sleep deprivation, which in turn has led me to take naps during my lunch breaks. good thing i'm shorter than i actually perceive myself to be. as i nestled perfectly in the front half of my car, i was able to perfectly outstretch my legs and after only just a few pages into my book, i fell into a deep slumber. thank you winter sun, for being out today and keeping me warm as i slept in the front seat of my car.

now, what i really need to do, is start getting decent sleep...in my bed...not in my car...

all queued up.

whenever i go home i watch all of my favorite childhood movies, including this one:

can't wait!

too2late.

crafting until 2am is not always the wisest decision. especially when you leave the tv on for ambient noise. i can now say that i have seen romy & michelle's high school reunion, which i have never had the desire to see and it's quite possibly one of the oddest movies i have ever seen. i also saw an advertisement for a neckline exercise device, and right before i turned off the television, al bundy cracked a joke about his wife bringing back the swine flu...if only we all would have listened to him. history truly repeats itself.

in other news, christmas cards are half-way to completion, and my thumb is not nearly as sore...

nimble thimble.

i really need a thimble. preferably like this one:

but i only need one. because let's be honest, who wants to look like this guy:

but in all honesty...i'm pretty sure before the christmas season is over, i will have a nice little callous on my thumb...so ladylike...

(oh) dear, americans:

why do you have such a strong desire for materialistic consumerism on the day after thanksgiving? driving through northern washington late last night, you already packed the outlet mall parking lot beyond capacity and formed a line down the side of walmart by midnight. don't you want a decent night's sleep in your warm bed? that was all i could think about during my drive home.

ps...maybe you should go see fantastic mr. fox instead. its amazing and probably the best movie i have seen this year.

ok. now go home and enjoy time with your family. and maybe get some sleep too, because i think you must be exhausted by now...

i have always loved the muppets.

and this is no exception:
