Well...hmmm...I am back and I still knit. The past few months have been kinda crazy. I finally moved out of my parents' house after living with them for 9 months. I bought a house (my first), I underwent some surgical procedures that sucked, and I started a new healthful food regimen. My job isn't so good and I want to find a new one. I just need to get my resume updated. Why is that so hard for me?
Currently I am working on a shawl for a friend of mine to give to her mother. It's a very basic triangular pattern ina dark gray yarn. So far so good.
I'm reading The Orchid Thief by Susan Orlean. It's wonderful! No wonder the movie was so good. A combination of an oddly interesting book and a spectacular screenwriter - you can't go wrong. I also went to my library and checked out The Whale Rider. I really loved the movie and I look forward to reading the book now.
I'm flying out to Los Angeles next month and I can't wait! I just want a vacation. I really don't care where I go. It should be fun since I am visiting a friend. I'm planning to visit some yarn shops while I am there. I'll post any good finds.
Blogging from work sux! I must get high speed internet at home. I don't even have a land line there. Is there any good reason to have a land line if I already have a cell phone? I don't see one. Unless there's an emergency and I haven't charged up my phone. Or if the power goes out for a long period of time... Hmmm...maybe I should have one. I don't want to spend the money!
