In other news, I'm not doing as well as I'd hoped in this year's Fug Madness. The Charo Bracket is the only one in which I've guessed correctly the whole way through. I still think it's insane that Paris Hilton beat out Roisin Murphy. A lot of people voted saying that they couldn't get past how Paris is ugly inside and out, no matter how crazy Roisin's clothing may be. Someone commented that by that line of reasoning, Spencer Pratt & Heidi Montag should have beaten out SWINTON, and I totally agree. Grrrr. And I totally hosed Madonna vs. Miley Cyrus as well, and since that winner went up against the winner from them Paris/Roisin matchup, that's one whole arm of the Bjork Bracket that's wrong for me. Phooey. I think in the end my only pick in the Final Four that will be correct is SWINTON herself, but since I've picked her to take it all (and I'm sure she will), I don't really mind. Now, if there's an upset and she loses to Solange, I'll be PISSED.

Chicago crafty types!

I haven't been paying attention, which means I missed reading about this on Cinnamon's blog till right now. This Saturday marks the first Do It Your Own D*mn Self show over at the Pulaski Park Field House. (Corner of Blackhawk & Noble, near the Division/Milwaukee/Ashland intersection and off the Division blue line stop.) Basically, the Chicago Craft Mafia is getting together and selling off their unused crafting supplies. So if you're into DIY jewelry, or sewing, or drawing, or knitting, or whatever, this may be something you'll want to check out.
