Unfurnished Brooklyn

Yep. Another FO.

I have been rockin' it every day. But I didn't take a pic yet. Tomorrow, maybe. And I'll probably make another.

This has been cracking me up all day.

Damn these people and their lolcats.

Ow, FO, and Whoa!

So. Cletus did not remove my toof... that will be done next week. Possibly by Brandine. But since I was expecting some pain this week, I went and sprained my ankle.

Today I'm hobbling around on crutches- which sucks in so many ways. Not least of which is that you have to learn how to walk with crutches- you can't just grab'em and go. Your body wants to walk normally. I keep forgetting to use them and nearly tip over.

Indoors, I just use one. I hobble* over to do something** set it aside, forget it, and start walking away without it and OWWWW! I have to take the subway tomorrow; that should be interesting.

Anyways, the first FO of 08:

Gretel, by Ysolda Teague. I saw Cassie's and had to make one. Cheb has claimed it, so I'll make another for myself. I love the pattern-it was super quick, using Ballybrae and #7 needles.

Oh, and that co-worker of mine? The one I pick on all the time? He just returned from Germany and brought back this:

He doesn't realize that rewarding my bad behavior with sock yarn will only encourage me. This is Opal Rainforest (colorway Veronica the Wild) and Opal Hundertwasser, colorway unknown, and I will not hobble over to look it up. It's quite bright, and I love it. People have been raving about this and I didn't quite get why, but now I see.

* love that word. hobble.

** I'm supposed to be resting this leg, but I can't just sit still. Must. Do. Stuff. You'd think this would be prime knitting time, but nooo. 

What was I thinking?

I scheduled a gyn appointment and a dentist appointment in the same day.

My dentist's name is Cletus. He's removing my wisdom tooth. Or, I should say, toof.

What was I thinking?
