So apparently it's August, which still hasn't fully hit me yet, even though I know it "intellectually". But of course, what this really means is I didn't do a goals update for July. Although technically, I -did- do an update, just not to this specific journal. *phew* Hooray for non-specificity.

Just what's newly changed since June:

Man alive woman, you are just going right along with your goals. As far as I'm concerned you did tons of things and should be proud that they are done.

Don't worry about e-bay too much it's a hard addiction to break. *snugs you*

[tsuki_bug]

Lol, I'm really not. It's like the minimal-est progress on all of them. Like, yay I read another 1 page of Harry Potter.

Lol, I know. *snugs back*

OH! And I also have to tell you the package arrived on Saturday! i was like there's this huge box coming towards me, I wonder what it is? Then it clicked and I opened the shiney and they are so pretty. I totally love all the colors and the candles are gorgeous. I'm starting to read the book (it's so cute and tiny) as soon as I get the chance to finish it up. I startes reading it then I had to run to work. Woe. But it arrived safe and sound so I'm hoping the cheque reaching you too. *HUGS you tight*

[tsuki_bug]

Yay!!! Good, I was beginning to wonder what was going on (even though I know we have the tracking number). I'm glad you loves the yarn and candles, heehee. Yes, I got your cheque and card too; my mom was like, oh btw I forgot there's mail for you. But yay!!!

[hellfire_angel]

Mom's are like that. My mom only tells me there's mail for me right away when it's a bill. *snorts*

[tsuki_bug]

Uh oh, can you check if I gave you the Phentex Merit burgundy? The balls wouldn't have labels. I'll look through my stash to see if it's still here; I have a feeling I forgot to put it in the box. If it's not there, I'll send it to you with the next package. *meeps*

I am pretty sure that Noro is all hype. I saw some of the kureyon stuff (the sock yarn actually) that the internet worships and it is merely colourful but scratchy yarn. HOW INNOVATIVE!

I picked up some Silk Garden which is the only thing I remotely like. Other than Cash Iroha I guess, but why would I pay for cashmere really? (Esp. since it's almost like the Silk Garden.) It'd be kind of sad if the yarn had silk or angora or cashmere and it -still- sucked.

Having said that, I'd like to try some other Japanese yarns, but Noro seems to be the only ready thing around.

I'm with you, I don't understand the Kureyon Sock. Does it suddenly become extremely soft after it becomes a sock or something??? But on that note, the worsted weight Kureyon seems to felt nicer than Patons SWS. *shrug*

Way to mispost ;)

I pretty much don't get the wool + wearables thing in general. Wool is scratchy and uncomfortable, which is why only poor people used to keep wearing it once we discovered the wonderful world of softer fibres, lol. I am not in love with wool; I will take a soft acrylic over most sheep wools any day. *foot stamp*

[tsuki_bug]

I swear I signed out of that last night, damn it, lol.

Don't worry, I don't disagree with you, though wool is warmer than acrylic, and cotton can't really be imitated by acrylic. If I buy wool, which I do, I'm really picky. It's superwash or it's soft merino. I have yet to actually use cotton. But I haven't been able to find acrylic lace weight yarn. Do you know any?

woooot backstreet boys! i mean *ahem* (...off the record)

[finishgoals_omg]
