I like the donut picture, kristen. It made me smile.

You're sweet. But my reaction was, "Geez. I lost 29 pounds. And apparently every single one of them was out of camera range."

I need to say it somewhere: I think the pencil push going through United Hollywood is a PR misstep.

This series of mini-interviews with the strikers cracks me up.

Oh, and in real Minearverse news, guess what I'm buying today? Knitting needles and yarn! I'm finally starting to knit again!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

From Kristin's awesome link I found and am now in love with A 5-Year-Old Explains The Writers' Strike.

JZ, that is now my favorite WGA video ever. Especially the ending!

ETA: I really am way too excited about this knitting thing. Check out this really cool knitting shop! It's less than a mile from my house!

When the strike is over, give the kid a typewriter.

Geez. I lost 29 pounds. And apparently every single one of them was out of camera range.

Yay for knitting shops in easy reach!

I bought a pair of straight needles and some yarn; starting with a scarf seemed to be a good idea.

Don't ask me how I'm going to knit around the kitten. I haven't figured that part out yet.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Crocheting around cats isn't as hard as I thought it would be, so long as the ball of yarn doesn't get out of control. Once it goes, the fur starts flying.
