Mary and I saw this truck in a parking lot today, and we got to take a survey for a research study. They gave us each $20, so I bought us both Chipotle for lunch (which I was planning on doing anyway), and I still had $5 left over! It was totally a win-win situation!

While in Pittsburgh I saw this unusual parking meter. I found it strange that there was an electronic parking meter that looked old on the left, while there was an older version that ticks down the time that looked nicer on the right.

This is as far as I could get on Amelia Rose's hat in the 3 hours and 20 minutes that I had between texts. Don't worry, I'll still finish it!

I bought this from World Market today. I have a plan, but I don't know if Parth would approve.

Oh the road to Texas...

Yet another reason Michaels is not as awesome as Joanns: Their 15% off of total purchase coupons do not include clearance items. Between my Mom and I they lost at least $50 in sales because of it. Oh well, I still scored some decent deals for the Christmas Shop for the kids.

The weather finally cleared up and I helped paint Joanna and Brian's house today for a few hours before making the long drive back home. The yellow is definately an improvement over the pink.

Happy Birthday to me!

Joanna bought me a delicious carrot cake!

The saga continues: my eye is only minimally swollen, but now I have a scab by it. Fantastic.

I just do not have luck in Conneticut. Last year the bed I slept on had feather pillows on it, this year I'm suffering from a bug bite by my eye. I'd like to be here one time without my head swelling up.

My mad painting skills strike again!!!

I bought my boyfriend a birthday present from Beth's gallery today (it's a slab of clay, he'll love it!). I may not be able to declare my status on facebook yet, but I can declare it on my blog!

June Sixteenth, Twenty Eleven

Yes, these are the stars from Hot in Cleveland, and yes I saw them today at Tower City when they each recieved a key to the city!!!! How super awesome is that????

What do you do when you are too cold in the middle of the night at the airport? Use your current knitting project as a blanket of course!

June Fourteenth, Twenty Eleven

I may be in trouble... I got this for the studio that I'll hopefully be getting in a year. Swoon!

June Thirteenth, Twenty Eleven

Stupid bangs.

Pat gave me this super sweet necklace that she made for me!!!

I got a hematoma on my armatoma. Let's just say that it involved some dog drool on the floor and a cabinet that I bashed into.

June Eleventh, Twenty Eleven

I finally finished the edges of the shell for my Mom.

I also finally put the eye on the duck. It didn't quite turn out as planned, but what am I going to do?

June Tenth, Twenty Eleven

Darn you Joann's sales... knowing that I can't pass up beautiful "Exotic Rosewood" knitting needles for 75% off. I can't wait to break them in!!!

My Texas travel guides didn't get here until after I had already left, however they will come in handy when I go back later this year! I haven't been back for a day yet and I'm already looking at flights. Just breathe.

June Eighth, Twenty Eleven

Look, it's Libby's new little family!!! Ha ha! Actually it's a duck family I saw while on my 5 mile hike today.

June Seventh, Twenty Eleven

The green lizard on the porch this morning!!!

This is an amazing Chihuli at the Dallas Musuem of Art. It was simply specacular!!!

Perhaps it is...

These are some buildings in downtown Dallas around the art museum.

June Sixth, Twenty Eleven

Parth and I went to the Dallas Zoo today, and had a blast!!!

Then we went downtown and had Chipotle for lunch, and by the end he had two of his favorite things in his hands!!!

June Fifth, Twenty Eleven

The lizard came back!!!

Validating the hypothesis...

Drawing a conclusion: mice don't like to be picked up by their tails!

Egrets, I've had a few...
