another WOTM

Today was all about scurrying.

today's WOTM...

Obfuscation
I'm just going to leave it at that.

Charleston...

Trying to practice the Charleston for Friday's costume party...

...and kinda spooked by antique photos of people's Halloween costumes. Oddly eerie, and I'm not sure why. Check it out. Very Diane Arbus, somehow.

Voodoo Dolls...a new growth industry?

I'm sorry, but they need to produce these for a few other characters on the international scene. My personal request? Mugabe...but you know, you can pick your own. I'm still thinking this would serve as a great gift for at least one relative...

Hat!

Thanks to Chiquitita for convincing me to brave the crowded insanity of The Garment District, I am now the proud owner of a wild & crazy and entirely Halloween-appropriate green satin beribboned, beveiled and bespidered witch hat. Wheeeeeeeeeee.....

(tis the season)

thanks Chiquitita!

WOTM

network issues...
and lots of deadlines...
migraines...

today's WOTM is vexation.

Miscellany...

Toner like my hopes
slowly draining of supply
I yearn for repair

Ten-dollar Word of the Mood

Today's ten-dollar word is actually one I had a brain-cramp on a while ago...reciprocate. Why could I not remember this highly useful and friendly word? No idea. Enjoy.

Why...

So my first question is, although he doesn't take an interest in my yarn otherwise, why would my cat really enjoy eating the baby wool (Debbie Bliss cashmerino baby yarn) that I'm using to knit a sweater for my soon-to-arrive niece? He literally chews on it and tries to eat it. Does he have some vague idea that he's a lion eating a goat?! Or is it just because he's contrary and has to choose the expensive yarn and the special gift project?
Do Koshka or Miko or Uli eat your yarn?Just wondering...
