Mystery Solved

I think I figured out what happened to my Busted Root(TM)! The yarn released A LOT of dye into the wash (which I’ve heard is common - it’s even printed on the label (which I didn’t read until after this whole incident!)) and then I didn’t even stop to rinse it, because the bottle of [...]

Last night I soaked my Rusted Root in Soak(TM) and then squeezed it dry (I tried not to ring it dry), then rolled it in a towel, and placed it on the floor to block. Then this morning I set it out on our deck to finish drying, since it was super sunny outside. Then [...]

Airbus

A conversation with a coworker earlier today:
Coworker: ..Well, at least Boeing’s doing well. Maybe all the Microsofties can go work there.
Me: Boeing’s doing well? When did that happen?
CW: You didn’t hear? Don’t you watch the news?
Me: No.
CW: Oh. Well, they are. They’re gonna kick Airbus’s ass!
Me: God. What kind of a name is Airbus? Who [...]

“Busted Root”

Oh, we are not happy about this one. See? It’s way. too. big. Mainly in the sleeves and armpits and sides. (HA!)
And everyone else’s looks so CUTE!
