Then we played Keystone Kops trying to catch said mouse in a teenager’s room with close scattered in the floor. Afterward we praised Marcus (the cat) for his hunting skills but requested that he finish killing it first. Which he did the next time he caught one and brought it up.

One morning when she was in high school one of our indoor only cats caught a mouse and brought it into her bed show her. She was not quite awake. The mouse was very alive. I think she made it the 10 feet from the bed to the door w/out hitting the floor

I have been maintaining that this is what happened for a few years now.

Me too

I cancelled and told them why. Mickey is ashamed of them.

I want her as a friend.

We can go back even further - how different the world would be now if Gore had gotten 300 + votes more in Florida.

A blue lace rectangular shawl made of handspun merino/silk.

For #ShowMeYourKnits Shawl Week here is a shawl I made about 10 years ago. “Cassian” made of hand spun merino/silk. One of my favorites, I almost wore it out.

Not an actual pattern, but if you are on Ravelry, my user name is acbknits and I have the basic formula in my project notes.

A Pi shawl with 4 different lace patterns, knit in handspun Jacob lamb wool with colors shading from white at the neck to black at the bottom with a white lace edging

For #ShowMeYourKnits knitter's choice week I chose a Pi shawl of my own design, of yarn handspun by me, from some Jacob lamb fleece. I separated the colors of the fleece and spun them separately, then picked a few stitch patterns from the Barbara Walker books. One of my favorite projects. 🧶

The thing is, now there is nothing holding Colbert back. So what if he ticks off advertisers? So what if the suits in the executive suites get their noses tweaked and worse. They've given him 10 months until he's out the door and he's going to make great use of it.

At some piont in his life he took an IQ test and he probably scored 95. Must have been the highest grade off his entire life. Average, however, is 100.

That’s because he lives in a universe of 1, himself. Everyone else is just a hologram, a phantom of a person, to be used, abused, or manipulated by him to populate his sad twisted world

A dark blue and sage green scarf in progress. Yarn pools to make wedges of color which alternate from side to side. Gusto Wools Carmen, pattern Flicker from Gusto Wools.

My #WIP for #ShowMeYourKnits this week is this Flicker scarf, using Gusto Wools Carmen for a very cool planned pooling effect.

Blue & white striped, felted garter square bag. Pattern by Ishi-Knit "Garter Stripe Square Bag"

For #GarterStitch week on #ShowMeYourKnits, a felted bag I made a few years ago. Pattern is Garter Stripe Square Bag by Ishi-Knit. Squares attached as you go along so there is minimal sewing. Lined with some matching fabric, with a couple of pockets inside, and I found braided leather handles. 🧶

Fabulous!

It’s “Cat Person” by Tirana Murphy. Bought it on Ravelry.

A yellow toddler sweater, with purple cats sitting along the hem. Pattern is "Cat Person", yarn is Debbie Bliss Eco Baby cotton

Rarely use much yellow in my knitting, but for #ShowMeYourKnits I present a sweater knit for my granddaughter a few years ago. "Cat Person" in Eco Baby Cotton. 🧶

The freshman did far better than that by noon on the first day of band camp.

A lace scarf in purple Mongolian cashmere

My contribution to this week’s #ShowMeYourKnits. A lace scarf (Santa Fe Starry Skies) in ULA+LIA Mongolian cashmere

I can also spin and have a wheel, carder, and a decent stash of fleece. Just hook me up with some one with a sheep or alpaca. Have done Samoyd too, but boy does it smell doggy.

I highly support this idea for felons with 34 convictions.

Interesting fact- a surprising number of Roman emperors were killed/overthrown by their Praetorian Guards

I made this video 15 years ago before grad school when I was still working on my bachelors in art. Sadly some how it is even more relevant today.

SNL always nails it. Even when the skit was done long in the past
