We had the largest turn out for a crafty night. Sadly I was under the weather so I spent my time on the couch and watched cooking shows. Crafting for the evening were some_other_word , roostur , darkkatpouncing , cheesentoast and hollyqueen . It sounded like they all had a good time. Remember next month I'll be opening the doors at 7pm on December 8th. I'm...

Thursday was my birthday dinner. Last night I had a good time at distance_to_sky , agentdanak and darkkatpouncing 's place, Ice Haus . Today I'm making some food and getting ready to take cheesentoast and hollyqueen with me to jedifreeman and raingirllori 's for the big party. I hope I can last... ;) Changed my default icon this morning...

Our first Arts & Crafts Night was a success. hollyqueen make Chicken Soup. cheesentoast finished a necklace. omg_teh_funnay sat around being a smart ass. I baked biscuits and read some supporting material for some projects I want to work on in the coming months. A low-key night but as the first one I am going to call it a success. Preparing for posting for National...

cheesentoast made a suggestion. hollyqueen and I liked the idea so now we need to know what time works best for everyone. The idea is that hollyqueen and I will host an Arts & Crafts night at the Polar Palisade each month. Bring your projects and enjoy a few hours of working with other people and socializing. See what other people are doing and maybe find a new project...

Day 3 of taking Byetta and I haven't gotten scales or the coloring of a Gila Monster. How long is this supposed to take? Peter Parker developed his spider powers overnight. What about me?! (I seem to be adjusting to Byetta and don't suffer as much nausea as I did the first day. My appetite is certainly much less than it was.) I couldn't sleep so at 3am I went to check a few things. I looked at our...

Yes, I've been working on this, and it's mostly fixed. Mostly. And what better occasion to let it roar? (And immediately I realize that it can't handle images with spaces in the name. Will fix it when I move it to its permanent server....) Edit: Script installed on permanent server. No more watermarks: the capacity is there, but this is about driving traffic to the other LJs, not about advertising...

Saturday was a great day! It started with a shift as boat host on the ARTHUR FOSS for NW Seaport . The sky was clear blue and the temperature was perfect for me. In my two hour shift we had 30 people come and tour the boat. I’m really looking forward to my shift this coming Saturday as the Lake Union Park Grand Opening is earlier in the week and there should be lots of activity next weekend...
