  • Missing Starbuck

    I was thinking a lot about Starbuck yesterday. He was the kind of cat who would let you hug him and bury your face in his fur and he’d let you. Even if he looked at you like he wanted to murder and eat you. So here are a few of my favorite Starbuck photos

  • I used to write things.

    I used to write things.

    A lot. The words and feelings tumbling around in my head would flow onto the paper or screen to float away. Tumbling around each other until they broke through          my angst,          my sadness,          my fear,          my yearning. Poetry, so much poetry.

    Lack of ….

    Love this version. Also, the typos are not mine… I’m sorry. Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part. I have a life and you are a full grown adult. someecards

  • Icon fonts and accessibility

    A few good article links for icon fonts, why they are bad and how you can use them if you really need to.

    So far: images inside links – either the image is stripped, leaving behind an empty <a> – or the image is converted properly and an empty link is somewhere else on the page Horizontal Rules are bad Classes on images inside of other tags are confusing Nested lists are confusing Next up… Hope FB approves my […]

    Legendary scarf

    I finally finished a yarn project. Since spraining my left ankle badly six years ago, I haven’t had a lot of luck knitting or crocheting. Finished this scarf tonight while watching the pilot episode of Legends of Tomorrow.

  • Flickr photos updated

    As planned, I got the flickr photos updated before my birthday. Having a broken leg comes in handy when you need to do something sitting. Next up…. finish restoring UFO photos to my ravelry project notebook.
