Having a week. Will be back when I can be back.

The kids at Typepad have rolled out a new Pinterest button thingy for those users who want their content stolen and placed on that other site or some such nosense. They have also linked to some code that may block folks from stealing our content. All info found here... you'll have to go to comments for the code linky.
Btw, looks like this might work on other bloggers platforms, too.

Turns out a "swallow test" is not even close to what you might think it is.
Yeah, ponder that for a while, people. If the handspun I'm soaking ever stops bleeding, I'll be back to complain about the dyer and the cute boy at my CVS.

I am more interested in an explanation of presidential pants.

Kitten: she probably misspelled parts. ;)

Presidential and pants together? I'm not getting that one. I don't want to know any more about the swallow test.

You have a complaint about a cute boy?
And I thought I am the only one not getting the presidential thingie! The only thing that pops into my head when I see presidential these days is: pompos, crazy assholes! but I guess this is too long for your little game.

Yes. Color me confused about the Presidential Pants.

Boo for bleeding dyes! So frustrating. I do love pinterest, but mainly because most posts link to a site: recipes, blog posts, etc. it's kind of like a visual favorites list. Stealing is bad, though and more and more sits are helping their users block the pins.(even pinterest admits that most of the pins block their terms of service)

I haven't had time to even work out Pinterest yet. I know, pathetic. Bleeding dye sucks. Swallow tests do not include the birds, do they? And, the word association works for me. I don't know about Presidential pants and I don't think I need to know. Hugs, girlie!

When I read Presidential: Pants, my mind immediately went to Dark Blue Dress. That might not have been what you meant though! *L*
Yarn that bleeds just makes me POed. Wish there was a way of knowing ahead of time about that possibility. Maybe Ravelry needs another catagory in their yarn section...

Bleeding yarn is so annoying. I've got a pair of socks that need to be repaired, but the yarns going to start bleeding when I use it to repair the heels. It's completely changed the color of the socks. Augh. Oh well. Hope things improve.

Pinterest.. it sounds interesting but I need another time suck like I need (another) hole in the head.
Rats and drats about the bleeding yarn, ugh.
Pants... that's slang for total crap.. so presidential candidates?
I want to know more about the swallowing bit, I've been asked that a few times these past two weeks, medical appointments, and I should've asked but 1) hate medical appointments and 2) hate medical appointments.
FFS.. indeed!

one day you should write a personal story for each word association.
xo!

You're complaining about a cute boy? Woe.

Bleeding yarn is a pain indeed. Sorry you're having a week. Right there with you.
Posted by: Natalie | Thursday, March 01, 2012 at 06:21 PM
"Presidential pants"? WTF? That's w-a-a-a-y weirder than swallow test...
Posted by: kmkat | Thursday, March 01, 2012 at 07:09 PM
Glad to read you! I was just about to ask if you had pooped or were you dead. Given how your week is going, it's just as well that I didn't. xx

And I thought I was having a week (or two).
The yarn is very frustrating. I have socks like that...
Posted by: Karen | Friday, March 02, 2012 at 04:27 AM
You found your missing pants. The President had them all along.
Get the cute boy to help rinse the yarn...
Posted by: gayle | Friday, March 02, 2012 at 05:00 AM
I am not enchanted by the pinterest. Don't get it. Don't get the FB timesuck either, but maybe that's just me...
Hope your week will be dead and buried today!

This is my belated comment on your 1400th post: congratulations! Glad you're here (or, there, as the case may be).

I'm having a week too. Here's to bleeding yarn and bronchitis. BTW, I have at least a dozen more to add to that list compliments of 2 Long Island teens that live with me...

I hope you can have a good week soon.
I'm just not exactly sure what to think about the Pinterest stuff. I am almost too tired care, but that really is not a solution, and usually just leads to bigger problems. Maybe I will put it on a to-think-about list and then get it to the to-do list.
Ack! The bleeding yarn just frustrates me so. I feel like I have accomplished something, and then that happens. You may already know about this stuff, but if not, Synthrapol can help.
