Bite My Shiny Metal Ass, Sleeping Alone
I’ll start with bite my shiny metal ass or in this case, bite my soft fuzzy non-metallic ass. I crocheted a Bender robot.

The plan was to make a robot for my nephew, Ebow. I don’t even know if he wants a robot doll. But I’ve been itching to crochet. So, when I found a Bender crochet pattern out there, I just used what I had, which was white. Because seriously, I was that impatient to crochet.
And I guess it doesn’t really matter what color he is, Ebow doesn’t know what Futurama is. He won’t notice what’s wrong with him, like his wonky little mouth. I’m obviously not good with embroidering on crochet. I had issues with the thread. That’s why the door on his body, is done in yarn.
Maybe Bender won’t even ever get to see Ebow because Isabelle has taken possesion of him. She’s been dragging him everywhere, throwing him around and doing flips with him, just like with the kitty. Maybe he’ll get so dirty he’ll become gray. Eeeewww!

And I tried to have Isabelle sit still and take a picture of him so you can see his actual size. But this is all I could get that day.

I had better luck, the night I finished him, with my cell phone camera.
And onto a different subject, our sleeping arrangements or bite my shiny metal ass, sleeping alone. Because that’s basically how it went.

We moved Isabelle’s bed right next to ours and tried again last night but it didn’t happen. No sleeping on her own. She was laying there and started sniffling. Her and Alan were talking quietly and I don’t know what they were saying. Then Isabelle climbed over Alan towards me and I don’t know what she was saying but she was crying and basically didn’t want to sleep in her own bed. I guess we’ll try again tonight but I doubt she’ll go for it. In fact, she walked over and saw my drawing and said, I don’t want to sleep in my own bed because I love you and want milk.
So yeah, we’ll see how it goes.
