Can't bear to have blank spaces...

I really haven't started anything fancy yet, but I can't bear blank spaces, so I'll put something in here.

In my brief little foray into the knitting world. I already feel like I am going to be learning a foreign language. k2, p2??? Hello, does that makes sense to the average person, not really.

Thank goodness, there are a multitude of resources available for the newbies. I have received some wonderful links from a good friend of mine and I also found a couple of promising looking shops over in Vegas for next weekend after payday.

For my first project, I am going to do a scarf. There are a number of reasons really. I love scarves; it should be relatively simple and it will be useful. If it goes well, I may start sending them as presents...

I was introduced to this wonderful thing called organic cotton and I am hoping I can find some in Vegas. Stupid me, I didn't stock up before flying back from Washington.

Friends beware, you may soon be flooded with all kinds of handmade gifts.. lol

Wish me luck!

makes I am planning to blog through the month of December, you know one of those blog everyday kind of clubs.  I like the idea of them a lot – though I’m not promising anything spectacular, because I tend to get sidetracked a lot, but I am planning to blog at least a little. I wasn’t even going to bother attempting another one of these things – the dismal failures and the guilt, the added stress from the guilt, who needs it really!?! I suppose if I actually made it all the way through I’d feel pretty awesome but it’s all good. Actually, what most excited me about this blog all the month thing was the theme – Zeitgeist – isn’t that just one of the coolest words ever? It just sounds cool.  I am thinking of adopting it as my theme for 2011 – I’m not joking, I like it that much. In case you don’t know (or haven’t googled a defintion yet) here’s an overview of the meaning from wikipedia : is "the spirit of the times" or "the spirit of the age." Zeitgeist is the ge...

Maybe you've been wondering...

Where I've been... well, nowhere really. I have been trying to stay off the computer and get some studying done. Obviously this is not working very well since here I am, but it is an effort. This new test I am studying for to determine whether I'm cool enough to enter the Education program at Western Washington University is scaring the pants off me. I really wish they would accept my already passing Praxis scores as I have already gone through all the freaking out, stressing out, studying and lack of sleep for that test. I don't test very well. I really never have. I am full of that panicky test anxiety right up until the professor, etc says go, and then I calm down and keep telling myself, you know this or you don't... just breathe goober. I am almost always convinced that I'm going to fail, and fail badly and I can't remember actually ever failing, but it could still happen. So, now I stay up late (because that's the only time it's quiet here) a...
