I really wanted to go to the movies this week because I’m kind of addicted, and I have a long way to go on my Elsebeth Lavold Silky Wool sweater (I’m almost done with my Palette sweater, however, and need to finish the 2nd sleeve on my Classic Elite Venue sweater - leaving me with […]
Isn’t one of the cardinal rules of knitting (after the no sweaters unless you’re married) that you shouldn’t knit in a yarn store? If so, I am a repeat offender. I’ve been knitting at Yarn, Paper Scissors (one of those great knit, crochet, sew, bead and s****book stores) and of course they had […]
Sure, I’ve been busy with work and bringing kids to the doctor this week, but when I heard the new Harold and Kumar movie was coming out on Friday, I had to see it!
On Friday I was driving when I heard a film critic give it 1 1/2 stars. I was disappointed, but I […]
I saw yet another meme on J.P.’s site, and even though he beat me in number of things done, I still enjoyed filling it out:
Life’s To Do List

01. Bought everyone in the bar a drink
02. Swam with wild dolphins
03. Climbed a mountain
04. Taken a Ferrari for a test drive
05. Been inside the […]
Shhh… I went to the movies again. Yes, two days in a row. But Thursday night I realized that Forgetting Sarah Marshall was opening on Friday, and I didn’t have any official plans, so how could I say no?
I didn’t have as many opinions about this movie as I did about “Speed Kings” but […]
I went to see the movie “Speed Kings” today, with Keanu Reeves, Forrest Whittaker, Hugh Laurie, etc. I really liked it. The first interesting thing I noticed is when I usually watch movies alone during a weekday I am surrounded by older couples, or just all older women. One or two housewives, too. […]
You’d think it was October by the amount of “A Haunting” shows I’ve been watching. In HD, no less. A couple of weeks ago there was a marathon of some other haunting show on Discovery, and that’s when I got back into the ghost shows. I think I’ve seen all the “Haunted [a city]” episodes, […]
I really hope I’ll be back at full speed soon - I spent three days of last week laid up with some virus, before that getting through the “big wedding” I had been dreading for months (it went okay, I was surprised), two birthdays, and lots of work.
Meanwhile, I had been knitting, just not taking […]
It has finally been turned into this:
Yes, I still need to detangle my sock yarn, but I really wanted to get it all separated and especially the WIPs so I could hopefully finish them. I still have left my Deco Ribbon bag (purple, and I was stuck because the yarn was tangled - no […]
