			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!-- Start Shareaholic LikeButtonSetTop Automatic --><!-- End Shareaholic LikeButtonSetTop Automatic --><p>Yes, I was giddy when I opened my mailbox today and realized that I was the recipient of a RAK (Random Act of Kindness).   <img src="http://www.thedailymel.com/wp-content/plugins/more-smilies/NJBnetBlue/grin.gif" alt="D" class="wp-smiley" />   Knowing my love of bunnies, my BSF (best stitching friend) <a target="_blank" href="http://sisquoc39167.blogspot.com/">Darla</a> RAK&#8217;d me with an absolutely adorable bunny chart.  It&#8217;s called &#8220;If I Can&#8217;t Stitch&#8221; by <a target="_blank" href="http://www.thesunflowerseed.com">The Sunflower Seed</a>.  Here&#8217;s a pic from their website:</p>

<p>It looks like it should be a fairly quick stitch, too.  I just need to figure out how to work it into my rotation.  Yes, I know I just use a screaming rotation, but I still have to figure out time to work on everything at some point.   <img src="http://www.thedailymel.com/wp-content/plugins/more-smilies/NJBnetBlue/lol.gif" alt="lol" class="wp-smiley" /> </p>
<p>I have a couple of other pics I need to share, but that will have to wait until tomorrow or Friday.  The rest of tonight will be spent stitching and watching a couple of shows off my DVR (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.bravotv.com/top-chef-masters">Top Chef Masters</a> and <a target="_blank" href="http://www.fox.com/dance/">So You Think You Can Dance</a>).</p>
<p>Speaking of DVR &#8230; only 4 more days until the new season of <a target="_blank" href="http://www.hbo.com/trueblood/">True Blood</a> starts on <a target="_blank" href="http://www.hbo.com/">HBO</a>.  <img src="http://www.socalstitcher.com/wagon/excited.gif">  Yes, it&#8217;s definitely going on my DVR schedule.  I&#8217;ll be out of town on vacation for three consecutive Sundays after the season premiere, so I&#8217;ll have lots of catching up to do when I get back home.   <img src="http://www.thedailymel.com/wp-content/plugins/more-smilies/NJBnetBlue/lol.gif" alt="lol" class="wp-smiley" /> </p>
<p>Until next time &#8230;</p>

							That chart is awesome. Bunnies &amp; snark; killer combo.

I canceled my HBO - I'm debating turning it back on for True Blood... Same with Showtime &amp; Dexter. I'm pretty sure I can't resist Dexter.
