Knitting can be challenging
when it's late at night
and you're on the N train
which is crowded with dodgy characters wearing nicely polished shoes
and you've just drunk a respectable amount of beer
and played funny video games from the eighties
with a friend you secretly love
who will clearly never love you, for many reasons
including your abysmal level of skill
at blowing up pretend spaceships that look like flying lobsters
and you needed to drink and blow up pretend spaceships in the first place
because you devoted your time at work today
to giving lovely and wonderful teenagers some news
that would make them feel sad and forsaken and weepy
which is the opposite of the effect you usually have on teenagers
and you are tired
and anyway you don't really know much about how to knit.
I am going to experiment with making some kind of slaw type thing including grated squash and grated beets. Sound good? I have high hopes but thought of this while drinking.
