i ran out of my sleeping pill and couldn’t sleep last night. in addition to the lack of pillage, jake was tossing and turning, cats were all over the bed, kahlo wanted to sleep on me, so i was flat on my back and she was purring so loudly and happily like a big pigeon that i couldn’t kick her off. i read my book, knitted, got sleepy, couldn’t fall asleep…and then, i woke up at about 5a and the sun wasn’t up yet. once it was up, pavel did his usual thing where he sees the shadow of birds on the wire outside on the roman blind and launches himself onto the blind right up at the top, and i have to remove him because he is hanging there not sure what to do. and then, he will do it again. grrr. verrrry annoying. so when i woke up i had a baaad headache, although it did go away with proper caffeination and medication. mmmmm. i spun some really cool odds and ends yarn, which i will photo and list to-morrow, plus a bunny yarn for one of my regulars that asked for it. we got groceries and that was about it. oh, we watched the prestige which was really good. it is based on a book which i will probably pick up. although now i know the ending. damn. also, i realized that the dresden files is based on a series of books as well.

oh! i almost forgot! the riches! with minnie driver and eddie izzard was on this weekend and it was fan-freakin-tastic. i was even more excited by it than i thought i would be. i don’t know what the rules of cable shows are, if they get cut if people don’t watch or what. i hope not. it is so amazing, the acting was fantastic although the accents were a bit odd, as brits and aussies trying to do american accents tend to be. i describe them as trying to do a john wayne/midwestern/marbles in your mouth accent. regardless, it was really good. on FX for anyone wondering. good. good. good. i am foaming at the mouth for next week’s episode.

here are some of the collage pieces i promised that wouldn’t load…

i have more, but they aren’t finished, so i will just post pics when they are done. and yarn photos too, no worries. okay, i am feeling sleepy, so off i go…
