Of course.
I have been so bored lately, and I've been trying to figure out why, because I am just NEVER bored, it hasn't happened to me in SO long, since I've always got one project or another happening. Then I realized that I'm AWAKE more. Since the hour shift at Aldo's, I'm getting about 6 - 7 hours of sleep a night, and on weekends I have absolutely no problem waking up at 8 AM, then not going to bed until midnight. I know 16 hours is the norm, but for as long as I can remember, I have woken up really really really late, then gone to bed 12 hours later. And in the past, I will have gotten 10 - 14 hours of sleep before work, worked 8 hours, then gone to bed 2 or 3 hours later. I AM AWAKE SO MUCH MORE NOW.
At least I know I'm not becoming boring. I guess I just need to focus on a second hobby to keep my mind occupied when I've crocheted for 6 hours and still have 10 hours left in my day. I have been knitting, and even though knitting is so different, they manage to feel so alike. I just don't know what else I want to do, though.
In other news, I ordered about a dozen things from online again >_> The only difference this time is that it's not a bunch of Sailor Moon crap, it's all stuff I've actually needed or wanted for awhile....mostly wanted. Circular knitting needles, crochet stress gloves, a few books (INCLUDING TREE OF CODES. FINALLY. BEEN ON MY WISHLIST SINCE 2010), a few things for Valentine's Day, and a shirt. I traded in one of my textbooks to Amazon for a $75 Amazon gift card. I still have $28 left on it, too. I just figured I should save it for a rainy day. I tried looking for yarn, for about an hour even, but they didn't have the yarn I wanted (or anything close to it) for any less than $11/skein (with shipping and everything), so I guess no "free" yarn from amazon.
Ah well, Enough nonsense, I guess I have a shirt to finish. I made a shirt the other day, only to try it on and realize it looked like a giant mesh bag on my figure, so I unraveled about 75% of it to remake it in a completely different fashion. I made a band of cinched mesh under the bust, then brought it back out to it's normal size for a babydoll style. It's obviously veering way off from the pattern, and I have to remake most of it, so I really hope it turns out and ends up being worth the time I put into it.
