Hallo Internets!
Omg, it feels like I haven't posted in forever. *clings to flist*
I think my little absence is best explained with pictures.
First off, Christmas happened. Due to lack of posts, I'm assuming that none of my Christmas packages made it to anyone on time. I promise they're coming though! My Christmas was awesome because I was with my family and because Christmas is always awesome, although I have to say, it was kinda weak when compared with our past Christmases. This is largely due to:
Too much work. Not just for me, but for my mom. See's damn near worked her to death this year. And I had nothing and more nothing all December, and then suddenly 12 days of work in two weeks.
Then of course, Papa came to town. The first thing he did was stop on the way home from the airport to meet Abbie. I was kinda bummed because I was at work when he got in (see above) and I wanted to be there when he met her. He leaves on the 3rd, and I really wish that he didn't have to. I feel like I've hardly gotten any time with him.
And speaking of Abbie, I've been spending all the rest of my spare time knitting for her. All the seed stitch in Debbie Bliss books, what's with that?
And also in the knitting department:
A Ravelry. I has one. I swore I wasn't going to put my name on the beta list, and that I was going to wait until it was all finished and ready for the public, but it wasn't ready and it wasn't ready, and it looked so pretty and I broke down and signed up and they gave me one. It is the most violently addicting thing since cat macros. Seriously. The End.
So these are the things that have conspired to make my life ElJay-free this last week or so. Oh! and before I forget to announce this:
Dibs. I calld dem. So who wants Colin Firth, and who wants Papa Winchester? I'll bring them to Wincon next year or something. Though if you ask me, Colin Firth has kind of a doofey look on his face.
