Knitting graffiti

Rewards for good behaviour

Today I woke early. Knit a diamond on my vest. Played with my poor neglected cats. Went in to school and marked for a couple of hours. Went to a cafe and marked for a couple of hours.

Was driving home down Sydney Road. Stopped at an intersection.

















The car gave a death rattle and then the clutch was no more. I pressed it in a couple of times hopefully, pathetically. And then we waited for the nice tow-truck man.

Happiness

"Happiness consists in getting enough sleep. Just that, nothing more."

creep

You're so fucking special,
I wish I was special.

But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.

AFP and Radiohead.




I just bought Amanda Palmer's album because I love Radiohead and ukeleles. And Amanda Palmer is going to marry Neil Gaiman. And I can personally account for about 80 views of this clip. And because this is the way I want to buy music.

And her eyebrows are rad. And a little bit scary.

Why life is good - XI

Lentils are cheap and delicious.

Is it a worry that a lot of the reasons I'm coming up with for why life is good are to do with food?
