I wish we had a Hobby Lobby

I have begun to knit!

Now, while this might look like a lowly, rectangle piece of knitting, it is actually a sock for my sister's iPod nano (pictured, left). Whoaaa! I know, you're impressed. I'm pretty good. Look at my skill.

Ok, but seriously, I hope it even works. My mom's going to pick me up a darning needle so I can actually sew it together into a pouch. Think it'll work? I hope so too.

In other news, I'm going to see THE MONROES today. Also the stud-muffin himself, Grant Rogers. Good day, indeed.

Everybody's got somebody to lean on

Things I'm Going to Do This Summer Instead of Lay around and Get Bed Sores:

- Learn to knit better - cabling, dropping stitches, the works.
- Knit things for my friends - even if it's just Emily and Chris
- Exercise (maybe? if I can get a ride to the gym?)
- Write letters
- Improve my short term memory!
- Cut back on Diet Coke consumption

Yes?

I'm happy because I'm stupid

All the happy anticipation I had at being home has been washed away in the rainfall of boredom. There is nothing to do in Tucson when you don't have a car or much money.

I'm going to take up a hobby, then, of course (a job is out of the question). But the agonizing pick of will be the most difficult aspect. I could get better at knitting, but I left all supplies and bundles and bundles of yarn in a small storage shed in Greenville. I could exercise, but it's hot and do I really want to be running through the city with all the Mexicans wolf-whistling at me? And I don't have a way to get to a gym on a consistent basis. Lamebot.

So I'll be open to any and all suggestions presented here. For the first time I'm not really looking forward to anything in my near future. No friends here. No jobs in Nashville. Bah.

I guess I'm dating again.

Who knew?

Two Rules

There are two rules for assessing another person’s music collection:

If their music is generally more mainstream than yours, then they are sellout corporate whores.

If their music is generally less mainstream than yours, then they are pretentious know-it-all assholes.

"Running from past relationships, hiding from future ones too. Fighting the impulse to run away from the ones who understand what you're going through."

Me.

Junior-Senior, Booner-Beaner

Tonight was great for so many reasons:

• David and I almost accidentally kissed.
• Andy and I had so much fun dancing and taking a million pictures.
• I wore a vintage Vogue dress that I was in love with.
• I didn't stop laughing at how hilarious my life is.
• Andy and I are going to get married at age 40, not have sex, and adopt babies. It's going to be awesome.
• I left my camera at a Steak N' Shake in Edwardsville. Oops. Guess I'll have to go get that tomorrow...
  

Oh life.
