Tomorrow and Sunday! Stop by and say hi, I have a whole pod of octopi…

I had the largest doughnut of my life at Voodoo Doughnut, while in Portland a month ago.

It haunts my dreams. It had eyes. It was as big as my (truly enormous) hand. Oh, doughnut:

So today was a little unexpected. I made about half of a seamonster-octopus using crazy sparkly green-black-blue-yellow yarn (pix soon as I’m done with him), but I didn’t get to finish him. But! I did get to spend a lot of the evening geeking out with a former roommate of mine, and that is always good.

I also made a network diagram at work, but I’m not convinced that that counts. So! Half an octopus and three new maybe-friends, not too shabby for a Wednesday. And now a moderately boring book and some sleep.

For tomorrow, I get to talk to people in Japan! Cooooooool!

Oh, the Maker Faire was great this year!

The rocketship was there, and a gazillion people got to see it.

I’ll have pictures once I find time to slurk them out of my real camera. But for now…

They gave me a blue ribbon for the ice cream cart. Pretty nifty, eh? I was stunned at first, then I thought it was a joke, and then I realized, hey, cool!

Coming up next Saturday, Craft Happy!

I’m planning on having a new table set-up, but it depends on how much time I have this week.

Come see!

Also, someone blogged about dorklandia!

I’m pleased to announce that dorklandia now has space in the Makers Market. I’ve just listed a zombie monster octopus, and will be posting more as I get better pictures. This should be a pretty nifty spot!

Here’s a picture of the zombie:

I will have a little table at the Sunbrothers 10th Anniversary Valentine’s Show this Saturday! Hope to see you there! Here’s a link for you: http://www.sunbrothers.com/news/?p=93

I do believe we’re in the future!

Well, it’s been a bit of a whirlwind lately.
New and nifty job, Renegade Craft Fair, RGRocketeering, and we’re moving on Saturday!
So, please to forgive the sparseness.
The Renegade Craft Fair was *excellent*. They let me bring my silly ice cream cart, and I had a great time, met all sorts of neat people, and saw a bunch of friends. I still have rather more ice cream kits than I’d planned on owning, but I’m alright with that.
Pix soon!

I’ve been wishing for rain all day.
What with the mild concussion, the start of school, and a fairly sudden job interview, I’m slightly overstimulated.
Also, today, I looked, and someone has registered ‘dorklandia.blogspot.com’, which is funny and weird at the same time. I wonder if he saw my stuff at a craft fair somewhere and decided he must live there too.
No octopix today, I’m still a bit foggy from my great big bump-on-the-head.
