Stephan Pastis is a genius.

I love Pearls Before Swine. I once sent Stephan Pastis an e-mail expressing my appreciation for his work, and he wrote me back, saying "thank you" and would I please write the local newspaper too? So I did, and cc'd him on the email. The e-mail I sent to the paper was pure gushy fangirl raving about how brilliant Stephan Pastis is, and how much I adored his strip, and if I weren't married, I'd want to have his babies (okay, I left that part out). Again, the man himself wrote me back with one word: "Wow!"

All that to say, once again, Mr. Pastis proves his genius:



I'd still have his babies. If I weren't still married. And perimenopausal.

An opportunity to share my obsession:

LOL!

That reminds me of a time I was trying to finish a baby blanket I was crocheting...I was about out of time, so I took it with me for my duty shift with the Rescue Squad. Not necessarily a smart move...I took a lot of grief from the firefighters about being able to crochet!

Pshaw on those firefighters.

If you're still playing with yarn, you might be interested in The Crochet Dude (http://www.drewemborsky.com/). Or there's a Yahoo group, Men Who Crochet (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MenWhoCrochet/).

And you can always join me and several hundred thousand other people (including several of our LJ buds) on Ravelry (http://www.ravelry.com). But be warned, Ravelry is addictive.
