now with glowing eyes

he started to prowl the neighbourhood at night too...

new thinking cap

i blame the fever...this head cold doesn't seem to ever leave completely, lurks and then hits again every couple of weeks.

and then unplanned, crazy things appear at the end of my knitting needles...

this is what happens to you after your telly has gone to heaven

a funny thing happened on the way to the store...

i was accosted by an industrial size snowman, smirking menancingly in the sun. had to feed him 11 kilograms of old hallmark xmas cards and a 10 litre jug of eggnog before he let me through!
i tell you, the neighbourhood is going to the dogs...

already waiting for spring again

they make my brain un-cringe...

all the good things

@home, sick, trying valiantly to work

here are links to two artists currently on my 'i vant'-list:

not suprisingly, i found out about them from strombo. as i don't get out much and am only going out with him, it isn't that unexpected really that i like what he likes...
my primary boyfriend doesn't know, but there you have it.

i guess i should think about cooking up some lunch for today and tomorrow. oh yea, i've started working part time for an archy consulting company, which makes everyone happy as little pigs and lets me sleep at night, which keeps me on good terms with boyfriend no. 1-thesis, which makes everyone who knows me happy as little pigs.

crap, the heating is not on, must go turn on the oven.

keeping up the fight

the posse says

HAPPY
AND SUCH!

stay tuned as the holiday stories continue...

k.

packing for the big city

very excited indeed! or maybe it's just the coffee and lack of sleep.
anyway, i hope the british weather now residing in ontario holds up 'cause i'm bringing my dancing shoes.

say what?

annual archy dept xmas party 2006

the usual success, with more food than anyone has seen in months. the secret santa gifts were even more creative than last year, and the wrapping techniques simply inspirational! (mine was sealed with duck tape;-)
this is what i got

8-D
i'm really, really, really hoping it's NOT because someone thought i look like dustin hoffman!
(o.k., some of my clothes are a bit crazy).

good times in geekland.

kitchen secrets 1.2

i've spent the morning and early afternoon shopping for groceries with nisse and then making chanukkah crepes while listening to the rigoletto on the wireless.
i am soo weird.

and as always when i make holiday food my grandparents were on my mind.


still to come: "which dress to wear?!" and "the annual archaeology department xmas party extravaganza 2006".

getting ready

not what she had in mind...

befriend with caution

i don't like to blow my own horn, but i must be one of the dorkiest people i know.
why?
i am amused by sites like this one!
i onced found an antique copy of a dictionary of rhymes in a second-hand bookstore in jerusalem. in the end i decided on giving it to a friend who's an editor, but the simple fact that books of that category find their way into my greedy hands speaks for itself.
i really think you should reconsider why you're friends with me, and what it is going to do for your career...

copout

at last, THE perfect 'secret santa' gift!

i think it goes under the "OMG, you're the bestest friend ever!!!!" category.
