Today was.......uh.......well ok. I guess.
on second monkey. i really need to put that bugger on two point needles.
I mean jeeze, it has 3 reapeats insterd of an even number of course.
THREE THINGS ABOUT KNITTING FOR NEW KNITTERS, OR KNITTERS WHO ARE FRUSTURATED:
1.If you hate your knitting, it hates you back.
2.odd numbers are cursed.
3.a-symetrical things rarely look good knitted, and never look good on.
i would do more but, i have to go have a stareing contest with the 2ed monkey sock.
im watching cops.....the cheeta print-bathing suite-clad-trucker is on.

very accomplished
I suppose your guessing (by the tital) that i got a lot done today. Well that my dear freinds is called sarcasm, and i use it quite a bit. So basicly i sat around all day and watched top chef. I do like that show. I personally would never go on reality T.V. Im convinced it makes even the sanest pepole totally nuts. Mabey this is only wishfull thinking, mabey there really is that many morons in America.
Actually i got LOTS of knitting done, probly a small amount for most sock knitters. There all so darn fast.

Shortie
Well actually all my posts are sort of short,
but i dont really have pictures to do the work for me. So my hair is the size of texas right now, i have switched conditioners and im really embraceing this big hair thing. Hazel would tell me ( if she were here now, or if shei is now reading this) "you dont now nothin' about BIG HAIR"
but im coming along to it. My hair is just a free spirit.
so im knitting these freakin, darn, bugger monkey socks who i thought were gonna be a breeze. yes, well, thay are definitly not. luckly my trusty pal GFJ has a PhD in monkey socks.
Snb the other night was a hoot.
well this is actually an averaged sized post. oh well

strange
I experianced something odd the other day (aplogies for not posting)
I found my self reluctant, now im reluctant to do a fair manty things: the orthodontist, weed the garden, clean. But never, ever (EVER) have i been reluctant to knit. Could this be the age-old second sock syndrome???? quite possible. my knitting colluegues will be less than smpathetic im shure. Its the darned gentelmens socks. Those buggers are, well, lets just say i know not of a woman who would knit them for any man. Ill talk more about it later its quite painfull.
I tried a new conditioner today, for pepole with curly hair. oooohhh, What is this curly you speak of Hayley?
oh yhea thats how my hair really is.

Ambitious
Now, Its on
Its fair isle sweaters now.
green flece jacket (she asked to be callled this) because the other name was fat head. today i took a little trip to ewe knits, my local yarnery. Altho i doubt thay can hardly be called that, thay dont have lambs pride or noro. true, you cant hold a candle to their lornas laces.
Yep so to clear up the whole fair isle sweater thing (shure i spelled that wrong) i have knitted half a sweater my knitting carrer and its dead boring. Fair isle sweaters are, what some would say, challengeing. GFJ (green flece jacket) is gonna hook me up w/ a pattern.

"all the worlds a stage"
Yhea whatever, shakespere.
At my school im in drama. I really dont know why. We are putting on a boring, snore-fest little poetry reading thing. Its so all the grandparents can go and scream "thats my baby!!!" for there little kid.
Oh boy
i couldent do justice by explaneing the extent of my stage fright.
my theater teacher is just a short dramatic man, who wouldent here my pleas of "im not even really in drama, im a visual art kid", so yhea as ushual I lost to the system and now I have a poem about ants burned into my mind.
Ill take some Klonopin and It will be all good.

work-out
So today was a lovely day full of accomplishment.
first i went for a nice long bike ride
then i came home and finally weeded the garden, i need to find (or buy, or magically accumulate) some pine needles so that all my poor neglected plants dont croak.
If i could rant for just one minuet about global warming: while i was wageing war on the crab grass in my flower bed i noted several very peculular things, my spring bulbs were sprouting, my nahboirs 8-year-old-foster-child was running circles around the yard claiming it was spring, the sky was blue. It was nice out. Are we all going to die or what?
rant over.
by the way went to www.quizzes.com and took the "what yarn are you?" I am proud to claim the tital of merino.....And i dident even lie.
there are double edged sords on the test though, on freind of mine got mohair. Thats a matter of personal opinion though, you can get acrilic.
tonight i get out of the house once more for SnB
Yep, at borders
sue me.
