AAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh vacation. So good. I got here yesterday on a flight containing 12 people and the flight crew. I’m not even exaggerating- I counted. Met at the airport by the Amazing Mookie, who apologized for the shower having committed suicide. Apparently it had decided that enough was enough and shed a wall. Teeth were gnashed, tears were shed, and the landlord was called, and in fact was working on it when we got to the apartment. All is well now, and the caulk sealant is almost cured, so life can go on. Life will, in fact, go on to New Comic Day and a bar.
SO. while the bathroom was being repaired, we went out to explore the beauty of Boston. By which I mean we found Mind’s Eye Yarn, which I’ve been looking forward to finding thanks to this guy. ( go! read! listen! he’s cool!) Also, I found Porter Square Books, under the same circumstances. And then for dinner we went to have Ethiopian food, which was at this amazing little restaurant called Addis Red Sea. SO GOOD! I highly recommend it. Good food, good atmosphere, and some really interesting decorations. AND educational!![]()
WOOT! Today Mookie and I celebrate New Comic Day, and seek out this place. I am so excited that I can’t even stand it.
In the meantime, life has looked like this.![]()
Mookie, hard at work on Dominic Deegan So refined at all times!![]()
Pomatomus, I hope. From Knitty, clearly. Also, of course, my order from White Lies Designs came yesterday as I was boarding the plane. At least I have awesomeness to look forward to when I get home!

Oi, I found you via the pic on Applegeeks! I happened to mouse over the names and saw “knits” and realized I had to stop by.
White Lies is love.
How do you like Pomatomus? I’m totally addicted to Knitty; I’m working on a version of Samus right now.
Will you be at ConnectiCon? I’m on the board and I have a table in the Art colony. Stop by and say hi if you come–I’ll probably be knitting or crocheting something between customers.

Yes! I’ll be at Connecticon with the guys from AG. I’ll DEFINITELY try to stop by and say hi!
Pomatomus… easy. not mindless-easy, but once you get the hang of it it’s easy- easy. However, It’s not something to do while lots of stuff is going on around you- my knitting from Anime Boston had to get ripped out.
Ah well. How’s Samus going?
