Ugggh... @_@ Okay, so, my new sock knitting book is awesome because it lets you make custom socks, right? Basically, the author shows you like 8 or something different ways to do the arch expansion (the part between the toe and the leg, or the part where the sock kind of bends like an L so it's not all vertical or whatever) and also provides you ( Read more... )

I finished my dad's sock! YAAAAY! It was a long, arduous journey and weaving in the ends was a pain in the butt and now I'm concerned I weaved an end too close to the bottom of the sock and he's going to feel it when he walks, so I'm hoping he doesn't.

Last night my family and I watched Willow again for the first time in years. And I...I...I LOVE IT. I don't know why it never hit me as clearly before. It's like I really "understood" it this time.

Soooo...Blossom is some kind of sick cougar wannabe woman creature. I'm so serious. It's probably a by-product of ACR but she keeps kissing her son's friends goodbye. Her son's TEENAGED friends. KISSING them goodbye. On the MOUTH. Not even a Peck or anything, but a Romantic Kiss. Yeah. STOP THAT, BLOSSOM. You're turning into an Elder in 2 days! In ( Read more... )

Oh. MAN. Let me tell you. Okay, so you all totally do not remember my Sim Charlotte who had a son Alan. Well, Alan had a daughter called Blossom and Blossom got knocked up by some dude named Bennie and had a daughter named Ellie. Now, Blossom and Bennie were never married because they're both Romance Sims (well, Blossom is Pleasure/Romance, but she ( Read more... )

I'm so sad. Today I was thwarted at almost every attempt to eat food I like. First, the soda machine at the building where my class is was out of service. I ran to the next building over and they only had HEALTH STUFF like juices and power drinks and water. So I ran to the NEXT building after that and THEIR soda machine was ALSO out of service. I ( Read more... )

UGH. Celebrities keep DYING. And they'll keep ON dying but...it feels like before 2008 it was mostly people I didn't know, like people from really old movies from the '50s and '60s. But now it's like...Heath Ledger and Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson and Patrick Swayze (who I just found out was the same age as my dad and it made me even sadder ( Read more... )
