Today I went ahead and officially joined NaNoWriMo. I'm now a part of a team and we can work together to victory! Or, y'know, waste time together. I started writing my novel on the 2nd. At the near end of the 5th I have a total of 4,781 words. This is far behind what I should be. According to the great calendar I should have been at 6,666 words at ( Read more... )

I know, some people will think I made that word up ( Read more... )

Seriously, it's been a good 2 months since I've posted anything and I have to say if the only connection a person had with me was through this journal you would swear to God I must have died. I haven't ( Read more... )

and I found them! I found my size 2 DPNs! Yes, I cleared away like...4 scarves and 3 pairs of mittens from the stairs (apparently my sister and I have issues with wearing the same ones over and over again) and what should be sitting on the second to bottom stair near the cool clothing labels my cousin got me for Christmas but 4 blue DPNs. I looked ( Read more... )

No. You can't see a picture. You'll just have to meet me on the street and see how awesome it is ( Read more... )

I'm not sure if I know of anyone who actually likes packing. I'm making more out of it than I absolutely have to as I only need to pack enough for 3 days, but I hate it all the same. Do I need shorts, do I need pants, is one sweatshirt enough or should I plan for a second in case of a horrible acciden? The list goes on and on and most of all I just ( Read more... )

I haven't posted in forever and a day. I haven't posted in so long I can't even remember what the last thing I told you all about was.

...in case I forgot to mention this at some point: You remember that audition for that student film? The one that I found very fun and was frustrated that I wouldn't hear back for like, a month? I heard back um... ( Read more... )

I'm...just a little freaked out. Typed in the web address of my trusty e-mail...and was bombarded by a page I'd never seen before...powered by google...lots of fancy mumbo jumbo I. Don't. Want. I don't need news on the main page. I don't need a google toolbar. I don't need to sign in only to sign in again when I click "check my e-mail ( Read more... )

And it was good.

Seriously, we hit 40degrees today and I told myself that was the "magical temperature" it had to hit for me to take a trip to the Local Yarn Store (LYS). I've been looking forward to taking a trip to the LYS since before Spring Break hit but it was too darn cold or I had too much stuff going on. Since it's Spring Break I have ( Read more... )

Alright, so the problem with sleeves is probably that I haven't read enough to know what I'm doing at all. I've made multiple baby sweaters but with the exception of one all were knit in one piece so fitting sleeves wasn't really an issue. I then knit a sweater for myself and after meticulously following a patter Eureka, I had sleeves that attached ( Read more... )
