Today knitting went better. Here is try two:
It went well enough that I decided to just go ahead and start the blanket. It might not be perfect, but hopefully the mistakes won't stand out too much.
Other than that, we did a few chores, tried on ski boots to see if they fit, and watched "A Cinderella Story." I'm a big Cinderella type movies fan because they always end so happily. And I'm a sucker for a good romance.

Friday: knitting
Well, this was my first attempt at knitting. I think I started out with about 15 stiches and lost 7 of them. Which is why there is yarn all over the place.
I got the cast-on part (or putting the yarn on the needle) figured out. I'm a little afraid that because because that part feels so comfortable I'm going to end up with a ton of stiches as I make my first baby blanket. (Then I'm going to make the kitty pi, but circles were an advanced topic. At least, that is the plan if the blanket finishes any time in the next year or so.)

Reversal
So I was playing WoW and Flurry was looking at me weirdly. So I got up to pick her up, and she ran away a bit. I followed, only to be jerked back by my headset. It felt oddly leash like.
Thursday: hotness
Today I wore my long grey pants. Which meant I needed to wear my heels. It was surprisingly only a mistake twice during the day...both times when I had to walk long distances with people. But with my new hair cut and my shoes I felt hot. Whether I actually was with my not-symmetrical hair and spilled applesauce on my shirt remains another question.

Wednesday:
Well, work has be ok lately. Some good, some not good, but what else is new?
The highlight of my day was the jello I had for lunch. We're running very low on lunch foods, so I got it to supplement the lunch. It had a lot of fruit in it and some whipped topping on the top. I only like whipped topping on jello. I'm not sure why. So that was good, and then there was a grape at the very end that was delicious.
Ben and I finished all of the episodes of Scrubs that are out on DVD and are starting The Office tonight. While I really want to start the next season of Scrubs because it ended on a dumb cliff-hanger, I'm excited about The Office too.

Sunday: superbowl
We watched the superbowl on Sunday. Lots of yummy food, somewhat disappointing commercials. An exciting last two minutes. More pictures here.
