Audrey: Putting together a coloring contest slideshow: http://tinyurl.com/266cko . And there’s still time to enter! (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Theorizing about the market for short science fiction these days (I think there are a lot of potential readers who don’t know what’s there). (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: My guess that if the apartment is mostly catproof it would also be kidproof was only half right. Five year olds are bigger and have thumbs. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Was going to walk to the park, but the new heel pads I bought are both for the same foot. Didn’t think to check it at the store. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Bought a replacement cable. Warrenty sadly does not cover acts of cat. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Just discovered that the cat chewed all the way through the power cord for the laptop. Without injury? Uh… (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Listening to another news story on the XO. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Sleepy sleepy. Thinking I should to ask people to go for (easy) bike rides with me, so I have motivation to get out more. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: At the beer festival. Good drinks, obnoxious people. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: It’s great of them to do this, but I hate that it’s needed. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Pleased but sad that some guys I know are trying to make sure all the local female geeks they know get introduced to each other. (via Twitter / Audrey)
More crafty experiments
Like a lot of people I know, I tend to stockpile supplies for projects I’m working on (or think I might want to work on someday). What’s worse, I end up with a lot of half-completed projects lying around. So I’m trying to make use of the materials I have (and maybe clear some room to put the rest of it away).
Thus, we have:
a crocheted purse
a pair of Pretz fabric pouches–these are for sale...
Audrey: @bleything It’s crochet. :) And yeah, smaller yarn works, it’s just slower. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: I love quick projects: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ame/919591656/ (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Crocheting and sewing today. I decided to try to reduce anxiety by actually using the materials I’ve stockpiled for various projects. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: @marshallk I’m uncomfortable with the idea that ‘personal branding’ means simplifying oneself into an easily marketable summary, too. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Thinking I need a career counselor. Or a mentor. Something. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Staying in tonight after all. Tired and my feet are sore. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Already tired of carrying the laptop around. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Heading over to oscamp. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Having fun at foscon. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Wondering what time I should try to get to Holocene to help set up for FOSCON. 6:30? 7? (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Maybe that’s not as exciting if you lack our 2 cats + long hair + cheap carpet, but I’m happy. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: I have a functioning vacuum cleaner again! My brother cleaned and fixed it as a birthday present. Yay Peter! (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Note to self: the DS is portable. If you’re going to play a game while cooking lunch, bring it into the kitchen or set a timer. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Wondering whether I can do laundry this morning without being thwarted by the (still theoretical) parking lot work. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: @kenefsky It says a lot about TechCrunch’s interests that the categories are things like ‘funded’, ‘launched’, etc. and not what they do. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: @peat Congratulations! (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Looking over the page proofs for my sweater pattern (the book will be out Spring ‘08). It’s so… pink. (via Twitter / Audrey)
Audrey: Feeling really unfocused today. I tried origami, but even that made me restless. (via Twitter / Audrey)
