Mensa Workout

Hey, want to take a little unofficial test from Mensa? I decided that regardless of whether I was Mensa material I wouldn't join because I don't feel the need to sit around discussing how intelligent I am with other people who are also self-important. But I took this anyway. Unfortunately, I took it at work during lunch and was very distracted and didn't do very well. Oh, well! I still know I'm a super genius.

I Want a House

Or, let's be realistic, even a condo. I just want to own something and make an investment instead of renting. I want not to have to worry about moving every year, and not to have to worry about whether landlords will take tenants with pets. I want to be able to paint and replace fixtures if I want to. I even want a fixer upper. Well, these people (a division of Countrywide) claim they want to help me. Not that I've spoken to anyone there, I'm just looking at their website. Let's hope so, folks. We'll see.

Gaugin at the MFA

I really need to rejoin the Museum of Fine Arts. I love Gaugin. In fact, I once dressed up as a "Gaugin island girl" or something ridiculous like that for Halloween in college because I had no better costume ideas and happened to own a sarong.

Apparently, I picked the wrong job.

Some baby hats

orangehat

This is a hat I made for a friend's 2-year-old. It's the first cabled thing I made.

bluehat

This is a hat I made out of leftover yarn from another project. It's crocheted.

multihat

This is a cute multi-colored hat I made with a mohair-blend boucle yarn. It's also crocheted.

pinkhat

This is a pink hat made out of this super soft yarn with the tagline, "touch it, feel it, love it". It feels like microfleece.

By the way, sorry for the pretty bad quality of some of these. Our good camera was being fixed when I took them and they've been resized using not the greatest software. I'll replace them all with better images once I have them.

Thanks for stopping by!

Really?

Thanks, very nice of you.

First, check my

Amazon.com wishlist

and there's no need to worry that I already have it or won't use it.

Tip: Check around for better pricing. Amazon's pricing is usually good, but not always the best available.

A quick Froogle search can't hurt.
