Ball Winder? I barely know her!


Currently listening: Jimmy Eat World-23, Kill
Currently watching: Blades of Glory
Currently reading: My physics and chem textbooks
Currently knitting: yup. still on the needle holder.

I thought it would be a really great idea to try and wind yarn without a swift

Oh, making some progress...


A little less progress...


...I've made a huge mistake.

I have breaking news: attempting to use a ball winder without a swift is a very. bad. idea. I have no idea what I was thinking. I do, I was thinking about how exciting winding a ball must be. And it was, after I spent the following weekend night staying in, untangling my 375 yards of beautiful yarn. Que sera, sera.

So unfortunately, I have recently ascended to the co-director position of two organizations, as well as committed to being a legitimately good student again, so most of my time has been dedicated to activities other than knitting. Still working on the needle holder, Tanuj moved his hat from the common room to my desk, under the belief that I had forgotten about it, and his scarf is nowhere near finished. As I am performing in the Vagina Monologues this coming day of St. Valentine, I will be physically out of my room from 9am-Midnight every day of the week, and do not see much knitting in my immediate future.

My recent pet peeve: Dear Jerry Seinfeld, what's the deal with people not responding to e-mails??? It seems that the lack of response has only been to e-mails in which I ask the recipient a very important question. Maybe I should start writing my e-mails in poll form, with a yes and no box. Or maybe I need to just start showing up at people's doors. However, since I am sometimes too lazy to even heat up water for ramen, I do not see this in my immediate future either. If I send you an e-mail, and the bulk of the body is one question, and you do not return aforementioned e-mail, I will judge you as a person, and verbally bitch slap you the next time we meet.

My blog has recently been rated at "genius" reader level by some site RachieB found. You know what I say to this site? Well, I'm not surprised. But I am quite sleepy. On that note, I bid you buenas noches.
