I dyed my hair tonight! I used the same brand I used last time - the kind that comes with both color AND highlights - but used a different color: brioche. My hair is […]

yes, there was demand! I swear there was! and clamoring! lots and lots of clamoring!
It’s time again for Ask The Evils! A monthly feature that will continue until everyone is sick of learning all the pervy little things about us.
But the questions don’t have to be pervy! They can be on anything! Science! Knitting! Food! […]

Sylvana tagged me! This was weirdly painful, because on the post list on my dashboard, the MOST posts I can go back is 300. I have way more than 300 posts. So I had to go to my site archives, and then count backwards. pbbbth!
The rules are:
1. Go into your archive.
2. Find your 23rd post.
3. […]

OK, blogroll goes kerflooey FAR TOO OFTEN for my liking. I am annoyed that my handy book marks are gone all the time.
I need to decide if want to replace it with a bloglines list, and then just do a manual list for all those who REFUSE TO CONFORM TO THE RSS FEED! […]

again, if you’ve stumbed across this site, and actually know me, please read here first. Or check out my cool new “disclaimer” on my side bar.
BUT…on to bigger and better things! Things that have nothing to do with disturbing Yahoo searches! or Rachel Ray! or ex-girlfriends!
Let’s talk about…MY NEW HAIR CUT!

oooooo….LOOK HOW SHORT IT […]

A disturbing google search led someone here. Someone who, in all likelihood, knows me. Knows my family. Or IS my family.
I knew this day would come. I never went out of my way to protect my identity on here. A good, detailed google search by someone who knows me, would probably lead them here. […]

We’re lying on the bed, Kev facing forward, towards the TV, I’m facing Kev. He’s got my favorite toy and using it QUITE effectively on me.
On the TV, $40 a day with Rachel Ray.
Things are just about to get REALLY good…when…
Kev: ohhh, I think I figured it out. She [Rachel Ray] looks JUST […]

It’s the American Library Associations national banned book week!
“But ESC! I’ve already read a bunch of banned books! How else can I celebrate such a glorious week???”
I’m SO GLAD YOU ASKED!

Spent probably a total of an hour this morning trying to purchase new car insurance. The quote on the woman’s computer was not matching up with the quote online - in fact it was over $100 MORE.
I emphasized to her the importance of figuring it out SOON, as my car insurance expires wednesday. She agreed […]

Bow before my awesomeness.Today was a LOOONG ass day. Church this morning was a bit morbidly funny. The family from NO that will be moving in came to the service for the first time […]

For a variety of reasons (ok…ONE reason: cheap car insurance) Kev and I joined Costco today. It’s not like there’s one close, we have to haul up to Gwinnet to get to one (Gwinnett is great! The water tower told me so!). So the danger of repeating today isn’t all that great.
What happened today?
I’m not […]

Last night despite being sore and exhausted from helping out at my church all day,
aside: Kev has some unexpected…um…let’s call it “temporary free time.” So this week he’s been helping my church get ready for a NO evacuee family to live in some of our spare rooms - evening out the floors and laying down […]

so much pain an anger the past few days! wounds! stolen dairy products! WHEN WILL THE MADNESS END!
how about RIGHT NOW with some nice, calming pictures to share? Lovely!

I know it’s only JUST fall, and you would NEVER KNOW IT with this stupid hot Atlanta weather, but I just couldn’t resist […]

All I’m craving right now is one of my Thomas bagels, toasted in the breakroom toaster, and then a nice thin layer of cream cheese spread on.
so what’s the problem?
SOMEONE STOLE MY CREAM CHEESE OUT OF THE BREAKROOM FRIDGE!!!
There’s no possible way they could have not known it was mine - my initials were all […]

very ouchy today. but I picked up some CVS triple-antibiotic PLUS pain killer (sweet!) today, as well as the NON-STICK gauze and some medical tape. I am a ONE WOMAN WALKING 1ST AID KIT, BITCH!

blog news
I replaced my “disturbing searches” section on my side bar with an “esc recommends” with some of my fav links. […]

I was going to blog more about my frustrations with my supposedly “quick” and “easy” project and paper that is turning out to be more and more NOT “quick” and “easy.”
Or I could blog about how my knitpicks yarn came in today! And that I just started the smaller Knitty Satchel. Hooray!
Or I could blog […]

Julie enjoys pastries
So I got to meet Julie on Saturday! YOU ARE JEALOUS!Julie and her friend Leenie came over aroun 3:30, after I marathon worked out, went to the lab, and cleeeeaned my disgusting, dog hair covered abode. We chatted for a bit and exchanged gifts. She got me the Wiccy Magic Muscles bar! […]

The concert friday was AWESOME! Click title for more song action (again, probably iTunes only. sorry!)
After dinner at raging burrito, we walked over to Eddie’s attic. It wasn’t crowded, which was good, because I didn’t buy our tickets online ahead of time like Elizabeth and Michael did. In fact, we were able to […]

It is a beautiful thing to enjoy work again.

friday rant
Attention musicians. I sort of understand the concept of the “hidden” track on your cd’s. It’s a nice little bonus for your fans, and you get to throw in your funky experimental stuff that maybe your label thinks might be a little avant-guard for the main […]

Boy, have I been bitchy and ranty lately. I’ve been all I HAVE NOTHING GOOD TO POST, SO PLEASE ACCEPT PICTURES OF KNITTING AND MY DOG TO APPEASE THE DEMANDING MASSES!!! BECAUSE IF I POST HOW I’M REALLY FEELING, CHILDREN WILL CRY! THERE WILL BE MOANING! AND GNASHING OF TEETH! BEWARE!!!
But so far, no one […]

Today really REALLY sucked. Let’s not talk about today.
Bag lady
My bag was a big hit….BUT…I’m a little concerned. The felting isn’t as even as I had hoped it would be. The top and bottom are spot on, but the middle section is still not there. Can I re-felt? Does anyone know? KNITTER POWERS, ACTIVATE!

Whatever […]

Yay! a fun mosaic of my tote bag project.
you can see that the bag DID shrink up quite a bit, but it’s still very wide.
big enough to do some SERIOUS shopping at the farmer’s market (are ya with me, Julie?).
now i’m impatiently tapping my fingers, waiting for my next […]

pre-felting
Originally uploaded by evilsciencechick.
I am finished with the knitting part. Now comes the felting. I am told it will shrink considerably, but HOLY CRAP WILL YOU LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THIS THING??? And this was the MID size option! There is a larger one I could have done!
Click on the […]

My tote bag is almost done. I’m halfway through the second strap for it. The bag itself is mega-huge. I keep forgetting to take a picture of it - I’ll have to do “before/after” with the felting process.
I realized that I am OUT of heartworm medication…ack! Sadie’s gone over a week without it! But I […]

Yesterday there was a definate funk. Hard to describe. I kept spraying Febreeze everywhere. We took the garbage out, hoping that would help.
Last night I thought I smell something burning. But only in the hallway and dining room. And there was nothing. The walls weren’t warm. The lights weren’t on. It was definately weird.
This afternoon, […]

The retreat was fun! Got there around 5:30 with my bottle of wine and chocolate cake. Sat and drank and munched while everyone trickled in.
Can I just say OH MY FUCKING GOD THAT CAKE IS THE BEST GODDAMNED CAKE I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE!!!!! It was instant orgasm for everyone there. Beth, who […]

I’ve been getting a sudden rush of spam mail on my gmail account. Fortunately, google files it immediately into the spam folder, but I always peruse them just to make sure nothing important got filed in there.
9 spam messages this morning, and I noticed a weird pattern…the “names” of my spammers seemed to be mostly […]

I have all the ingredients I need to make a tasty flourless chocolate cake (delicious recipe kindly provided by Sunni). I had to buy 4 bars of ghirardelli bitter sweet chocolate. I love ghirardelli chocolates. I once went to the ghirardelli store and ice cream shop at the Disney Marketplace, and oh. my. god. There […]

Research is still pissing me off lately…all I can say is that my last 2d gel result had BETTER be a fluke, or I might just quit all together.
I AM NOT KIDDING!

general health and well being
The past two evenings I’ve gotten a bad stomach ache. It goes away by morning. However THIS evening, I have […]

I am so fucking pissed off today. I was a raging evilsciencechick. I wanted to throw glassware across the room. I wanted to choke my advisor. I wanted to scream at her “YOU ARE DRIVING ME CRAZY AND MAKING MY STAY HERE LONGER AND UNBEARABLE!!!!”
Instead, I said “No. No. I’m going to do […]

Yay! Lots of questions! Of course, I gave you until tuesday, so you can STILL ask away. But I couldn’t resist answering the ones we’ve gotten so far.
So without further ado, I present the VERY FIRST “ask the evils!”
Serra asks:
What do I say to a man who’s convinced that if he’s caught having sex outside […]

I know I said no posts until next week, but I just HAD to say some of your questions are cracking me up! Hooray! Plus I need to yank myself away from horrific hurricane damage. I think I’m actually making myself physically ill.
But first, a little amusement: found a link on madville of European castles […]

..completely different.
I would love to change the mood here…but seriously, I got NUTHIN’! We’re headed to ‘bama tomorrow to spend the long weekend with Kev’s family. wooHOOO! More sex on the back of a 4-wheeler, baby! In the woods! With 3 dogs watching! Does it GET any more redneck? I DON’T THINK SO!
But today has […]
