Forget “When I am an Old Lady I Shall Wear Purple.”

When I am an old lady (which will be in about 20 minutes from now) I shall wear a felted kitty brooch.

The listing says these are “classy.”

I’m trying to imagine an occasion for which that would be true. Christmas party at the strip club? Clown-school graduation? Porn star family reunion? Give me your best guess in the comments.

Happy Halloween, y’all. No, it isn’t real. Thank goodness. It does look a little…fierce, though, doesn’t it?

It looks so real; one easily can confuse.It is crafted carefully out of Alpaca, and merino sheep fiber, silk and it is not a toy, as a living rat is not.
It might be a unique item for a collection and excellent for Halloween decoration. .
It consists of strong positive energy; you can feel it touching its soft back, paws and head. Probably it was charged by, while I’ve been creating it with a great joy.

Halloween week continues with this lovely entry.

Kinda creepy, right? A little?

It becomes a whole lot eerier when you read this:

16×20″ maple wood mount; articulated real human arm and hand bones, dried roses, stingray stingers, birch twigs with fairy’s-cup fungus, tattered black silk, crepe, and gauze.

Real human arm and hand bones, people. Don’t tell me you wouldn’t start listening for strange noises down the hall if you hung this in your home.

thump thump thump.

It’s getting closer.

Scratch scratch scratch

RUN!!!!!!!

Yours for only $1700. Good for scaring small children and superstitious relatives.

Caution: May Cause Significant Side Effects

suebob — Mon, 28 Feb 2011 02:11:21 +0000

I started taking anti-malarial drugs and I was somewhat worried about the side effects. They warn against blurred vision, liver damage and hallucinations.

Am I seeing what I think I’m seeing?

Because if I start seeing things like this all the time, I think I’ll take my chances with the mosquitoes.

Yours for only the price of a used car.

This scarf would make a lovely gift. It is lovely, isn’t it? So soft. And handmade.

I thought I’d love a scarf like this, until I found out what it was made of.

Possum fur (and alpaca, to be fair. But POSSUM).

POSSUM FUR.

Have you ever met a possum? I had one who used to visit my back yard to drink the black water that sometimes oozed from the compost heap. Yeah. The freakiest, most disgusting little animals on earth.

So this brings up questions. How does one get possum fur to make possum yarn?

Road kill?

Possum grooming?

Or are there…shudder…possum farms?

This scarf has raised too many bad questions in my mind for me to ever look at it the same way again. Sigh.

And it was so pretty.

Suebob has a dog that could help her get some possums.
