Found in a thrifted bag of fabric. I recently tried to sell it on Craigslist, but no one ever wants to buy my shite.

Woo hoo!

It didn't bleed! The quilt, I mean. I just took a chance, threw it in the wash, and said a little prayer. Yay!

Fair quilt

I started this one over a year ago and had planned to put it in the state fair until I found out that they only took submissions from children in the quilting category. I quilted the hell out of each square which caused me to tire of it quite quickly and shove underneath a bunch of stuff for a few months.

Now that it's complete, I can't remember if I prewashed the reds or not and am now terrified to wash it. If it comes out of the wash with its original color, I plan on hanging it in our bedroom over the headboard.

R. Kelly mugshot

Julia Nunes

The bear just found Julia Nunes online. I think he was looking for "hot chicks with ukuleles" but he claims he was looking through Weezer videos. Either way, I highly suggest you sample some of her videos. She's even got a cover of The End of the World.

Don't put me out

The bear and I had a celebrity sleepover with none other than recently acquitted R. Kelly the other night. I didn't realize that he had even arrived until the bear woke me up by whispering a sweet nothing that consisted of: "I think the cat peed in the bed." At first I thought it was some new type of sexy talk that bear was trying out on me but he cut on the light and showed me the spots on the bed. The same bed that I had been sleeping in since 11pm (it was now 1am). I"m no Ruth Bader Ginsburg, so ALLEGEDLY, it seems that R. Kelly was shooting another sex tape within that 2 hour period and must have slipped me a ruphie earlier in the evening since I didn't hear a thing. He ALLEGEDLY peed on the bed twice, the bedroom floor, the bedroom rug, and in the hallway. I'm surprised that the bear didn't hear all of the filming/production noise that was going on, but since the a/c blew up he's been keeping his door shut to maximize the air from the window unit. Lucky him.

After being kicked out of the bedroom, Mr. Kelly ALLEGEDLY proceeded to film his latest video in the bathroom using our dirty clothing as an allegory about "keeping the man down." He somehow got in touch with Triumph the Insult Dog and they seemed to be working on duet material from Triumph's new album, Come Poop With Me. Yeah, that's right. He ALLEGEDLY left a nugget in the kitchen. He and Mr. Triumph must have gotten into our Courvoisier too. Such a celebration is generally not that big of a deal, unless you can't hold your liquor and hurl 2 times in my craft room, ALLEGEDLY of course.

I do not appreciate Mr. Kelly's ALLEGED ability to turn my house into an open sewer in such a short amount of time. My only hope has been to send him on his way for a new project which includes shooting scenes at the "Vet" location and testing out some new material called "Glucose Curves." The bear escorted to our special celebrity to the vet this morning, unfortunately the police would not comply to an escort even at the demand and insistence of Mr. Kelly.

It could be worse I suppose. We could have had to sit through the entirety of the hip-hopera, "The Closet."

Because I'm up at 8am on a Sunday morning

The way I like to think of them. For some reason, the present day B-52's really freak me out because they make me realize that I'm aging too.
