WatchJust in case you happened to miss it, here’s Mo Rocca a) dissing homemade sweaters last winter, b) learning how to knit, and c) shouting a big out to Ravelry.com.
Thoughts: Felix, m’lad, you are awesome/If Mo’s big complaint is that yarn is itchy, why is he learning to knit with Brown Sheep Lamb’s Pride? I love that yarn, and it is great learning yarn, but I think whacking...
I am 175 pages into a 530-page novel that I’m reviewing, so time is of the essence here, and I have 90 or so pages left to read before I will feel OK about putting the book down for the day (it’ll put me at the halfway mark, with the second half to be finished tomorrow).
You could tell me that it’s easier and/or faster to read 90 pages of something than it is to write 90 pages...

a bit of friday random
I’m in that weird limbo stage of the morning where I’ve caught up on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Google Reader and now I don’t know what to do with myself while I finish my (second) cup of coffee.

You know how some people are about Anthropologie or J. Crew or, or, some other clothing company that delivers catalogs that make you want to cancel the rest of your afternoon so you can page through them and imagine your life if you had the money to buy everything you saw in them?

P.S. WHICH OLD PROJECT. Dude, I craft. I’ve got old projects coming out my ears.

Me: I feel so boring right now.
Dan: Would you like to go out and fight crime?
Me: God, YES.
