I woke up this morning to NO heat. It’s 21 degrees outside and the furnace decided to die. That’s just awesome.

So, this morning…as I sit wrapped in an afghan, with fingers numb and lacking dexterity required for much typing, I bring you my fave recent links.

Another fave Craftastrophe – Mexicali Jesus . Well, all Craftastrophes are pretty funny.Except the Dog Turd art. I’m still grossed out over that one (yet willing to call it art because it totally is )

Helen Mirren has some weird ideas about rape

To Make: Light-up Firefly Booties .Now I just need to find a baby to make them for

Want: The new Mason-Dixon Knitting book

Hero Worship: One of my favorite people in the whole wide world who i aspire to be like is featured as a guest in Episode 22: Eating Ithaca: Giving Thanks for Local Foods

Geekery: Star Wars buttons from minepress. Also love: Honey Bee earrings .You know me and my bee love.

Nom: Muffocaccia

Knit: Your own singer/songwriter .Oh,the possibilities!

MUST have: Koi Shoes. If only I didn’t have such teeny-tiny feet that make it impossible to buy something that cool.grr.

Whew: I’m not the only one with this oral confession

On my music playlist today:

“Feast of Wire”, Calexico

“Greetings from Michigan,The Great Lake State”, Sufjan Stevens

“O”, Damien Rice

“Songlines”,Derek Trucks Band

Interspersed  with music coming from various rooms upstairs. The oldest is listening to lots of Big Star and early Pixies ( *pats self on back for giving kids such a good musical education*) and the younger ones..well, they’re still in Panic at the Disco mode.

[title from:"Oh,God Where Are you Now", Sufjan Stevens ]

(because that’s what’s playing at this very moment)

And as I end this, the Heating Guy has fixed whatever ailed my furnace so I’m going to go sit on the heater and get warm

Sidenote: This plumbing/heating company is the same one that sent my adorable Dune-loving plumber last week. Judging from the Heating Guy, this company only employs good looking men. Just thought I’d share.
