    I'm so happy!  I got to talk to a handful of friends tonight that I haven't had much contact with recently.  Its awesome knowing that people who've been in your life at one point or another still think of you.  I wish I had a couple million bucks so I could gather up my friends and take them on a Disneyland tour!  How amazing would that be, the people that make you happiest and going to the happiest place(s) on earth - and of course a pit stop at Wizarding World Of Harry Potter (duh).
    
    Enjoy some random songs:
  • Daniel Blomqvist - Juninatt
  • Etta James - Don't Take Your Love From Me
  • Asleep - The Smiths
  • Easily Embarrassed - Little Trees and Fantasies

    Stretched Thin

        I haven't been as on my game as I would like to have been.  I have indeed been crocheting a lot and now that I'm taking a breather and trying to remain calm ...

    I'm going to make an attempt at a real blog update!  For the past few weeks I've been attempting to make this faux grass rug for a friend of mine and its done nothing but make me want to pull the hair out of my head.  I've always been a hands on / tutorial kinda girl, reading patterns or diagrams frustrates me and I hit boiling point at ridiculous speed.  So consulting with friends and looking up random tutorials online, it seemed 99% positive and that everything was being done right and that there was no need for me to worry, only I couldn't stop.  After starting multiple other projects to calm myself and take my mind off of the rug from hell (its not actually that bad, but I get worked up), I finally sat down a few nights ago and tweaked the pattern to make it my own and FINALLY have complete faith in it and that it will stay together (which was my fear, that it'd unravel as soon as he walked on it).  I give you a sneak preview of the Grass rug:


    I've also taken up making granny squares to use up all my bits of random yarn.  May just make a pile of them or some day decide to make an actual afghan or something of that nature.  Lets not get started on my new MLB obsession and/or the fact that I cannot stop buying Giants colors.  Just observe.

    Aside from my brains suicide

    My morning isn't too bad.  I have a Giants game in 2 hours and some fresh coffee (which I'm hoping brings my brain back from the edge).  Then I stumbled upon this on a friends page and it completely made my morning.
