I've obviously been much to busy to keep the internetosphere updated on the life of me, so here goes. Obviously, the most important is the knitting. I am currently engaged in a number of Top Secret projects that I am bursting all over the place to talk about. But alas, that discussion is not going to happen on this weblog until after the holidays. Don't fret! I am photodocumenting my progress.
In knitting news that I can talk about, last night I attended the Boise Bitch and Stitch downtown at Thomas Hammer. The group is full of fun and welcoming people, and of many skill levels. Enough of them can be totally awed by my knitting prowess to make me feel, well, full of prow (whatever that means). However, I bet if I get stuck in a knitting crisis I can't find my way out of someone there might be able to point my needles in the right direction. While I think they are mostly quite a bit younger than me, that's never been a deterrent before. I'm planning on going back next week.
In the world of geekery, earlier in the week, I upgraded my MT to the new fancypants 3.33. Not everything is working quite exactly right just yet, but give me time. I will triumph. (Though getting Media Manager installed again is giving me FITS. My consumption pages are totally broken for the time being. Harumpf.) I primarily embarked on this endeavor because the librarian in me loves TAGGING, and the tags don't work. Dork much?
And lastly, but definitely not leastly, I am very much looking forward to a real vacation! At the end of the month I'm headed to The Grand Canyon for a week. Lots of time for knee-busting hiking balanced by knit-knit-knitting my way down highway 89 (we're going the longer but prettier way), and a couplea Dam Tours with my Pops. Who doesn't love a good Dam Tour? Other than my Mom? While I do realize that most 30-somethings don't vacation with their parents, I have a couple things to say. Firstly, I really like my parents. Second, a vacation that is free (or close to it), frees up my cash for MORE vacations. And third and lastly, even though I took that little mini-break a couple weeks ago, I'm still wound pretty tight. A big break AWAY is going to be nice. Plus one of the Wonders of the World? Good for putting things in perspective.
ACK! I want to go to Bitch and Stitch! Seeing as how I'll be turning 32 here in the next couple of days I'll go and be old with you!!
Happy birthday Ladyface! (Tomorrow, right? You'd think after what, 23? years I could remember the date, but alas I am lame.) I don't think I'm going this week, but definitely next if you'd like to join me.
Yikes. Took me awhile to get back... yes, you were correct. It was the 12th. Thank you!!
Give me a call when you are going next and I'll see if I can join ya!
