BLoglines?

Hey, can anyone explain to me how this works? I guess I’m registered, but I think I’m missing a big part of the puzzle. Once I register, do I have to do something with my blog to hook it up? Do I have to change my template or turn something on? I’m on blogger, by the way…

And, now that that’s out of the way –

It’s LOVELY here in South Orange – woohoo! I’ve had such terrible fevers the past few nights that when I wake up cool I feel like a whole new world has opened up!

The crochet contributions continue apace – wonderful stuff. I plan to write later this week on the existential dilemma of requesting free patterns and how I justify this, but right now I’m just into enjoying the day! The contributions for Cheaper Than Therapy are also coming in strong – and they’re exceptional! I’ve tentatively set a pub date of late August, which will give me a chance to meet and interview folks who may not normally submit (non computer folks) so I can create several themes in the book and find a good way to bring them together. The main theme, though, will be how knitting and other fiber arts create a calming or peaceful space in our lives and get us through rough times in unexpected ways.

Last night I watched Mrs. Brown with Judi Dench. Apparently I saw this movie before, but I had no memory of it. Ah, the positive side of memory loss – I get to see old movies and think I’m having a new experience! This happened before with the movie Dead Again. I kept renting it, watching it, then thinking, “Hey, did I see this before..?”

I’m also currently watching the BBC/History Channel series A History of Britain and I’m thoroughly enjoying it! I love this history stuff, it does make perspective a bit easier in these odd times.
