I hate making up titles

I added some buttons to the scarf-ette today!  Michael's had a big bag of buttons for like $5 and I picked out three matching ones to quickly sew on.  I love it!  I wish I could have taken more pictures of it, but I gave it to Rachel already.  Oh well.  Here's a camera phone picture of me looking like an idiot and wearing it.



Awesome.

Mr. F!

For all of you who have stayed up multiple nights worrying if I would stop knitting or not, don't worry!  I whipped up a little treat for Rachel Brown's birthday that's today.  My camera is broken, but thankfully my iMac took a couple o' pictures for your viewing pleasure.



I also got bangs!  I'm a fan.  Not in these pictures though - I had just woken up and was obviously gross looking.

The pattern is Fourteen and is a nice little neck warmer / scarf dicky thing.  Isn't dicky a weird word?  I don't know if I'd wear anything that had that name.  Except for this.  I need to get buttons for it still, so I'm going to try and stop by Michael's before we go see Quantum of Solace this afternoon.  Wooo!  James Bond.  Awesome.  Chris and are in the midst of watching them all in chronological order, starting with Dr. No.  We just finished Goldfinger and it was definitely the best so far.  Oh I love Sean Connery.

Working Title

I haven't knit in days.  Is this another obsession fallen by the wayside?!  Let's hope it isn't so!

I'm working full time this week.  Phew.  Haven't done that in a whi... ever.  Ok, I did last summer, but all of this work is getting in the way of my social life.  Too bad my social life only consists of my roommates and my boyfriend.  Ugh.

Countdowns:
To South Carolina - 15 days!

Life is Wonderful (now that a black man is president)

Now that everyone is proud to be an American again, I feel as if life can go on happily.

So I have another job opportunity, hopefully.  Someone from Word emailed me saying they had a Publicity Assistant job open, asking if I would like to send my resume to apply.  I said yes please!  Apparently J worked his magic there as well for me.  I owe that guy so much and I've never even met him.  Anyway, I'm not getting my hopes up because it would be too good to be true.  Oh well.  What's another 5 years at the ice cream parlor?  I could be like AJ from Empire Records!  

Nothing else going on in my life except GARY called me and said he's 95% sure he's moving to Nashville.  The kid is not even 20 years old ("I'm 19 and a half," he told me tonight) and he's working for Taylor Swift!  Not to mention every other band he's worked with over the past 3 or 4 years.  I like knowing him.  And to think that the Newsboys brought us together...

Well, it's 3:36 in the morning.  Time for sleep.

Thank goodness.

HOLLA!

Obama '08

I am nervous for our country.

Here's hoping America isn't stupid this time around.

Halloween!

If you didn't know, I finally chose to be Waldo.  The hat wasn't very good because I completely improvised a random hat pattern and it was knit with that cheap-o Red Heart Walmart yarn and I only had like 3 hours to make it.  It was sort of fun to knit to a deadline, but I'm worried that if I did that often I'd get tired of knitting quick.  Anyway, here are some pictures:


Where's Waldo?!

I love holidays.
