Life is good.
Now that I’ve gotten all of my pre-midterm work out of the way, I can finally relax. After riding the bus home with my sister today, I sat in my basement and worked on my owls sweater (the body part’s done, and now I’m almost done with my first sleeve). I also ordered some yarn and yarn dye from KnitPicks, which will add some fulfillment to my dull, dull life.
I’m also...

I really hate going out to eat with my dad. Not only does he use this time to preach to everyone else about the teachings of his little Paleo Diet cult, but he is allergic to practically everything and makes sure to give the waiter/waitress a hard time about it.
Tonight has certainly been no exception. We’re out at a hibachi restaurant to celebrate my college acceptance. Instead of using...

girl. this is like my life. knitting and tv shows take up most of my time. it’s the best way to live.
I agree 100%. I can’t even watch TV anymore without knitting something, because I just feel insanely unproductive. It’s like those people who can’t drive unless they’re smoking, only I think my habit is better for my lungs. And...

Not About Knitting: A Post About My Weekend
Friday, I sat around and watched Law and Order: SVU while waiting for Pat to come over. Which took forever, because he had to get it back from the car-fixer-people. I got a lot of work done on my hipster scarf that I’m knitting (Herbivore by Stephen West), which is slowly taking over my life.
Saturday, while watching Law and Order: SVU (and, okay, knitting the scarf some more) my dad came...

I just spent about two hours researching and deciding on what yarn to use for when I finally get around to making Kate Davies’ owls (which I’m sure you’ve all seen this picture of) and once I finish all of my other knitting projects I have going on, I can give my full dedication and attention to making it. I should also maybe learn how to do cables, too.

I don’t know what I’ll do if there isn’t a snow day tomorrow. I need time to do all my Calc homework and memorize a bunch of muscles in the legs (those ones are hardest, IMHO).

I hope you are watching the original NCIS and not that Los Angeles bullshit.
I think it is. I dunno, because I don’t like it, because my one true love is Law and Order: SVU. I’m only here so I can hang out with my mom.

How I Spent My New Year's Eve
I went to the Chu’s for New Year’s Eve last night, as I have been doing pretty much every year since I can remember. It’s always me, Mike, and the Wilkinson twins, just hanging out and laughing until it hurts. We had dinner (Mike’s mommy made her always-awesome pesto sauce just for me) and watched some episode of House until we got bored and the Wilkinsons left early to...
