Cry BabyI feel like a whiner for complaining about not having enough time in my last post. Who *does* have enough time? Or money? Or chocolate?
Sometimes I get so focused on the projects I haven't finished, the projects I haven't started, the patterns I haven't published, the posts I haven't written, the crafting supplies I haven't purchased, the thank yous I haven't sent ... that I fail to see all the things I actually *have* accomplished. I have a lot to be proud of. Thanks for pointing that out (the the nicest and funniest way)

lil' d!
Avatars 2.0When I showed Andrew
my avatar he said, "You don't have black eyebrows." And he's right.
When I
went back to remake myself I took the time to figure out how to change the background and noticed that you can move some of the elements up and down, like mouths. Moving the mouth down a click or two makes your avatar look a little older.
More About MemesAlso, I totally forgot to tell you why I end up doing
memes even though I can't even bear to utter the word ... it's because I love reading yours so much! I love learning about you guys, seeing pictures of you, hearing your secrets. I figure that I'm not the only one who likes it, so I might give you a tiny glimpse into my Aliceness. I still think there's something icky about them, though. :)
Cactus Update - AugustGrow you little bastards! Grow! Why are they still so teeny tiny? Am I going to have to wait until next Spring for another growth spurt? And ... I killed another one last month. Three down, eighty-two to go. More pictures on
Flickr. [ Note: I've compared last month's photo of the red-spiked cactus to this month's, and it has grown a leeeetle bit. But that's not saying much since it's only 20 mm tall (that's less than an inch). ]
