Blog Moved!

I've moved my blog! Please update the links on your blogs to www.thebloggingbunny.com.

Don't worry, I am still linked to all your blogs on my new site ;)

Adios, blogspot.

Blah...

I know I've been really lacking in the blog updating department. I know my layout/theme is very out of season and lack lustering. Because of this I have not wanted to update my blog much because I am in the process of designing a new layout.

I started dabbling with squarespace.com. It is a website that builds a blog for you and makes designing your templates very easy. The best part about it is that I can transfer all of my blog entries from here to squarespace at the click of a button.

So, please pardon my absence while I continue to mess around with that. As a fair warning, you all will need to update your links to my blog once I make the official "move". However, I am still debating if I will even "move" from blogspot yet. Decisions decisions. Please be patient while I think all of this through... :)

Arnold Classic

My dad attended the Arnold Classic this past weekend. He was not there to watch all the crazy body builders or Expos (but I'm sure he didn't mind oogling at the ladies!). Instead, he was there to represent the art organization he is president of, the Ohio Plein Air Society. He spent the weekend painting and was later judged by Arnold and Sly Stallone.

Here is a pic to prove it!



While his art did not place in the finals, I am still very proud of him! I wish I could've been there for all of it, but I sadly had to work the entire time.

Go, dad!

Hello March...

Well, sorry for being M.I.A. February totally flew by. I cant believe I haven't updated this blog in so long. Here's a run down of what I've been up to:

* I finished my 4 week knitting class. Yes. I graduated! You are now looking at someone who can knit scarves. Only scarves.... I have yet to conquer something bigger.

* I'm in the middle of knitting a cable scarf with my beautiful Lorna's Laces yarn. Finished scarf shall be posted here. Maybe I will finish it before Spring...?

* Babette Blanket is slowly coming along. I'm only averaging 1 square per week... which is really pathetic. Between my month long knitting lessons and all of the projects that came along with it, I simply ran out of free time to crochet. But don't worry... I'm getting there...

* We booked our Disney vacation! Thank you, Southwest Airlines and your amazing Valentine's Day special! You can't beat $77 one-way tickets...

* Speaking of Valentine's Day, I saw the movie of the same name with my mom. Wow, talk about a poor excuse of a movie. Lots of Hollywood stars and no meat. I guess the whole isn't greater than the sum of its parts...

* I have a weird allergic reaction to something, which has caused these odd, flesh colored bumped on my palms. Went to the derm and he gave me this cream that's in an industrial sized tube that much resembles hemeroid cream. Thanks, man.

* We found a new love for Netflix and internet streaming via our PS3 to our HDTV. I discovered the TV series 'Dexter' and I am in love with it. Go, serial killer, go!

Wow. After reflecting back on my previous month, I realize now that I have no life. I'm so burnt out from working that when I come home, I feel completely numb and brain dead. I am counting down the days til our vacation...

Side note: What is up with The Office? It's so not funny anymore. Michael Scott has gone from funny impromptu man to boring and annoying. I say we kill off someone to make it more interesting.

Oh another side note: Grey's Anatomy has been so much better without Izzy. God, I hate Katherine Heigl.

So Much Snow...

Columbus got up to 10 inches of snow. I'm not one to go play in the snow because I hate getting wet and cold, but Maddie got to have a little adventure.



The snow plows in our neighborhood also decided to clear the streets, thus totally blocking in half of the driveways with huge mounds of snow. We (read: Vinny) shoveled both of our driveways (we have two separate garages). It still hasn't changed the fact that Maddie can't distinguish the difference between snow-covered grass and snow-covered road, so she's been doing her business in the middle of the street.

Yep, she's on her way to becomming a drunk college student.

Knitting Gone Bad

My coworker Andi and I started our first (out of four) knitting classes today. We learned the basics: how to cast on, how to knit rows, how to purl, and how to bind off.

I was about to take a picture of my ugly practice piece I made in class, when I realized it looked way too much like a penis.

I'll keep this blog PG today and not post the picture.
