About me

Gender Female
Location Somerville, Massachusetts, United States
Introduction I'm a woman living in the greater Boston area and working at MIT. I've been knitting since 2004. This blog is here for me to share my geeking, my discoveries, my frustrations, and my accomplishments in the world of knitting with other people who can appreciate such things.
Interests Knitting, reading, cooking, gardening, belly dance, music, singing in the shower, camping, painting my toenails, mocking my cat, snuggling with adorable men, eating really good food, homebrewing beer and mead, mixology (that's making cocktails, to you), and so much more that I could go on and on, but I won't.
Favorite Movies The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Wings of Desire, A History of Violence, Serenity, Labyrinth, the Indiana Jones movies, Star Wars (original trilogy only), the Avengers movies, the X-Men movies (esp. First Class and Days of Future Past), the Daniel Craig Bond movies, Cloud Atlas, etc. I also love Doctor Who, Firefly, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Babylon 5.
Favorite Music Einsturzende Neubauten, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Tom Waits, Diamanda Galas, Dead Can Dance, Magnetic Fields, Steeleye Span, The Pyrates Royale, Massive Attack, Shane MacGowan, The Chieftans, John Bilezikjian, Billie Holiday, Buena Vista Social Club, etc.
Favorite Books The Lord of the Rings trilogy, anything by Neil Gaiman, Terry Pratchett, or Anthony Burgess, Thomas the Rhymer by Ellen Kushner, Lud in the Mist by Hope Mirlees, H.P. Lovecraft, Charles Stross, etc.

What reason do you have to believe the earth is flat?

Because it would be very difficult for four elephants standing on the back of the great A'Tuin to hold up a globe. A disk is much easier.
