Lookit that, I have let things slide around here once again. The problem is that I usually depend on weekends for writing and thinking about future entries. And lately, the weekends have been getting away from me. For example, this weekend was a whirlwind of errands, craft-making, and Kill Bill seeing. And in two hours, we will be hosting some loved ones as they pass through town on a whirlwind tour of their own. It all adds up to not much time in front of the computer (and by "not much," I of course mean "less than ten hours per day, oh the smoking horror.")
Kill Bill was just the thing. I astounded Josh by announcing that I don't have anything bad to say about it, because I have a reputation for being a teeny bit critical at times. A word of warning: although super-fun and mega-stylish, the movie is also ultra-violent. So if you have some sort of weird aversion to the hacking off of multiple limbs, avoid. Although as EV, who along with her charming husband joined us for the viewing, pointed out, it's so over-the-top that it plays like comedy. Anyone over whom this exerts a negative influence, well, they had problems already.
In leiu of length or humor, I'll close with some more pictures of things I made:
More magnets, and the box they come in. Help me, I cannot stop making magnets.
These new things are all going to be for sale at the 3WA crafts fair (nothing naughty here, but a slightly risque page title, so watch out at work!) in November. Get your wallets ready, kids!
Now I'm off to tidy up the house and myself and the giant, terrifying pile of craft supplies on my desk in anticipation of visitors. If you don't hear from me, check under the silicone glue.

Posted by: Hilatron at October 13, 2003 11:16 AMOMIG*D those are super cute stockings. :) I spent the weekend making Sponge-Bob Squarepants pajama pants for my girlfriend. Yay for craftiness!

Posted by: EV at October 13, 2003 11:46 PM15 to twenty bucks, I say.
And, I join the rest in stating the obvious fact of their awesomeness. I plan to start hawking them to my gentile friends immediately. At 15 - 20 bucks, depending on your thoughts.
