Let's Try This Again

I was in the middle of writing a post this morning before aerobics, and my computer froze. Hmmmm... maybe because I was downloading a few things, and processing pictures, and looking at several websites... that's what I get for trying to multi-task!! Of course, maybe it just wasn't my morning... after I was so rudely kicked off my computer by the big freeze, I decided to work on my poor, abandoned socks. While transferring the stitches back onto a set of DPNs, I snapped one of my birch size 3s!! So I had to get on the internet again this afternoon to request a replacement... turns out one of the new employees at Brittany went to my alma mater... UCSC! So that's pretty neat. Of course, since the company IS in California, I guess that's not too strange.

Last night, I got a good amount done on the rug... I was watching "out of africa," which has the most amazing scenery shots ever. So knitting something that needed my visual attention was right out! I can't quite decide what to do with this... I think I'll run out of the black before it gets long enough, and I can't decide whether to switch to white (which I have plenty of) or go out and buy some more black. It needs to be somewhere between 2-3 feet long, so I thought it might look cool to have a black half and a white half... I guess when I get to around 1-1.5 feet, or run out of black (whichever comes first!) I can switch to white and see if I like how it looks. It's not like black red heart is a major monetary commitment or anything!


I'm making really good progress on Daphne's socks... I'm almost done with the first one! I think I might go ahead and finish it in the general sock-finishing frenzy this weekend... but only if I finish the other pairs first. I have to have SOME discipline! ;)


I think Cricket is giving me an after-aerobics hint... better hit the showers!
