Today is the last day of tech. Tomorrow morning is our first preview, so it’s all sprinting from here. Hooray! Thursday I go get my hair done so I can remember I’m a girl and to celebrate the soon-to-be-opened show. Also to relax my way into Friday. We all know what happens Friday, right? The Yarn Harlot’s Knitting Olympics, of course! My name hasn’t yet made it onto the list of knitters- boy howdy do I hope I make it there. I want to be official! But regardless of Olympic List status, I’ve decided to knit for Team Wales. Various political quibbles went into the decision, I will admit, but mostly I thought the dragon was cool.
Of course, what happens three days before the olympics start? I get a craving. A Stash Enhancement craving. I’m trying to be strong, to avoid looking at the online yarn shops, but it’s oh so tough. Something fuzzy and soft… something warm and yummy… mmmmm more alpaca… some cashmere you say? No! I must be strong until the end of the month! The Rogue Hoodie calls, and Tubey is very nearly done. Oh lord, I hope I can finish that before Friday- I don’t know if I could stand not finishing the last few inches during the olympics, and if I break from competition for that, I’m done for.

Well hello there. It’s amazing what Google and boredom can discover. I had no idea you were so into knitting. I tried chainmail a while ago but I don’t have the patience to make anything larger than the occasional choker. Why don’t you drop me a line?

Hey Jeff! Welcome to my little tiny corner of hte internet. Hope it’s not too too saccharine over here- I’m trying to keep my backstage language out of it until I figure out how I feel about cussing online. I swear there will be more stuff then just knitting, really. That’s just all I’m doing right this second. Also I’m kinda obsessing.
