Not much knitting...

So I haven't been able to knit much lately, mostly due to inexplicable wrist strain (possibly caused by playing too much Katamari Damacy). But I have been collecting small glass animals. The same small glass animals made by Hagen-Renaker that I used to collect when I was a pre-teen. I saw them again when we were in Myrtle Beach--at the same goddamn store I used to buy them from over fifteen years ago--and had a nostalgic seizure. I convinced myself not to buy the entire stock and settled on these two natural enemies:

These guys are just out of control:












There's a good chance that there are more on the way. I don't even freakin' know.
