1. Could you live without your phone for 1 week for $500?

Oh, easily. That, actually, would be fantastic - no telephone and cash in the pocket!

2. Whom do you talk to on the phone the most?

My mother.

3. Whom do you no longer talk to on the phone but wish you still did?Enh, I don't know. I should probably call my sister more often, but I've ( Read more... )

God. I love her patterns. If ever a knit was sexy, it's an AAM knit. I have two in my queue right now (the pattern she has in this season's Knitty is to die for, and I don't even like bobbles).

Tommy, Goldie, Faux Pas, Nonsense, Buckshot, Tracey, Thorin, Butterscotch, Micki, Hazel, Fiver, Kashka, Davey, and now Dragon and Mackie; it hurts like hell ( Read more... )

Y'know, I like being a girl. I do.

...but sometimes I really wish I could actually be one of the guys...

Tired. Don't want to work at the store today. Two hours until I start, and I'm not ready. Bah ( Read more... )

If you asked me how I was feeling right now, I'd have to answer "Annoyed." Ask me what's annoying me, and there is no answer. I don't know. Life. Everything. Nothing.
