August 2007


Well, I’m in tech for the new show at Signature. It’s kinda slow, actually- the designer is pretty happy overall with things so there aren’t many notes. Which is how I am able to update this blog right now!
The other thing I’ve been doing is getting the new blog up and running. Don’t worry, I’m not abandoning this one for that one. It’s to go with the magazine, so all the fiber geekiness will still go here! But go! Check it out! http://www.spwug.com

So since all I’ve been doing is working on a show with no notes (but 56 channels of ropelight chasing up a curved staircase in two colors…) and setting up another blog, I really don’t have much to say. I’ve been knitting scarves for family and working on some Christmas projects, so I can’t talk about THEM here. Spinning up some really yummy alpaca/silk blend that I got at the MD Sheep & Wool festival, but I am at a theatre and not at home to take pictures. So… I’ll leave you with thius photo.

That’s me spinning up some bamboo on my Ashford plain jane drop spindle in what will be my living room. The light is wonderful for spinning and knitting and such things. And oh man, can I tell you how much I love spinning bamboo? It was like little strands of happiness sliding through my fingers. I have GOT to get me some more of that!

Ok, so I’m terrible at this ‘blogging’ thing. What can I say? I’ve jsut sorta felt empty of words I’ve wanted to share lately. I’ve been knitting. I’ve been spinning. Oh man, I got a spinning wheel for my birthday, AND we hit the MD sheep and wool festival. HOO BOY have I been spinning. I’ve been doing freelance theatre work here in the DC area. Nothing much new.

Oh! Except that I got into a serious relationship (which has surprised me more than you’d think it should,) and I’m moving to California come January, so there’s a bit of a change there. Diginin Publishing is doing fairly well, for a company as young as it is. There is a new blog in the works that will not rely merely on me and MY pathetic updating skills, so that’s fun.

I am going to try to be better at regular posts, moving forward, though. I am coming a bit out of my shell again, which feels good, and so I figure if I’m going to have this thing out there, I might as well use it, hmm? I’ll post again later about actual fiber stuffs, and have some pictures for you to look at, and maybe even tell a joke or a story.

And after all that… dancing bears juggling mimes! WHEE!!
