- 12:06 Working on behind the scenes footage of the last Chickenpants movie instead of doing the million other things that need to get done.
- 15:26 Listening to my dog yap for more orange bits. Who knew pugs had a thing for citrus?
- 16:18 Just caught the dog in the process of trying to plush herself. Eating polyfill. Eeep! Not good.
- 19:12 Working on pt. 2 of Legend of Chickenpants, and thinking of the brownie I promised myself for later...

- 14:51 Trying out a new structured schedule. As opposed to my normal jellyfish schedule.
- 15:54 Hip hip hooray for Etsy sales!
- 16:18 Whoa. Just released the 100th Chickenpants and I'm at 99 Etsy sales. Weird and unplanned!
- 16:58 Thinking up ways to celebrate this moment of my life. Starting with a free CP Baby for the 100th Etsy sale. tinyurl.com/65mbop

Holy Chicken(pants)!
It's a Chickenpants milestone! Introducing...the 100th Chickenpants!

****confetti! trumpets! applause! more confetti!****
OK, OK, I know that during the Pirate/Ninjapants epoch of September, we actually went up and over the 100 Chickenpants mark. And I totally intended to do this sooner...but here, without any further foot dragging, is the HUNDREDTH CHICKENPANTS!
His name is Centro. He's a mathematician with a thing for Brazilian music.
He's sporting black and white checkered pants (not unlike an old pair of Vans), a black and white paw print belt, and a yellow star button belt buckle. He's made from that amazing nubby fleece that the first Chickenpants were made from, too.
Thanks everyone for encouraging me to keep going with my obsessive plush chicken making!
And here's a weird coincidence- the shop is at 99 sales! We're celebrating that with a free Chickenpants Baby for whoever is the 100th sale. ^-^

- 13:21 The crafty blogs I like all have these great lifestyle photos. They have gorgeous lives and make amazing stuff. WHEN DO THEY SLEEP??
- 15:44 No wonder I never get it all done. I have 15 hours worth of tasks to fit into a 9 hour window. Hmm.
- 19:53 Streamlining the heck out of my online presence. Au revoir, Myspace, Facebook, Linkedin!

Hey, let's try updating the blog!
Hi everyone who may still be reading this poor neglected blog! I have a bag full of excuses why I haven't been updating, but instead, I want to share something AWESOME:
Eh? Eh? AWESOME.
Anyway! If you're in the San Francisco area this Sunday, come on by to Capsule! It's a street fair, and I'll be there with roughly a seven nation Chickenpants army.
Hope to see you there!

This is what crazy looks like
I don't even really know what to say to accompany these photos that isn't completely banal. Moving is a pain. Look at my living room!
Should you wish to see the chaos in more detail, just click on the photos.
