BRONIE ALERT! I am knitting. (not related)

I am so excited! The latest episode of MLP:FiM that I have watched.. is called The Last Round Up... and it has DERPY HOOVES IN IT!! AND THEY MENTIONED HER AS DERPY!!!! Instead of Ditzy Doo! This is a big step for the Derpy!

In other news about life... I have been a knitting fiend. I am currently working on a baby blanket and a scarf. I find this to be a relaxing and productive use of my time. I have ideas about future projects and a list of skills I want to achieve eventually. I find that there is a resurgence of people who want to know the "domestic arts" which is nice, since, usually these sort of things seem, elderly. I have also been contemplating learning to crochet, sew and make jewelry.

**I started writing this a while back, I saved it but now I feel compelled to finish it. **

Update. I have finished the baby blanket.. it is really hideous and I just got tired of it, so I casted off ( finished it) about 1-2 inches shorter than it needed to be. So, I am contemplating edging it in some sort of ribbon. I don't know why I thought that I could knit a baby blanket, thinking  that I could give as a present as my first big project in under 2 months.. but there we go.

My next project is to finish my friend's scarf and then knit another (less fucking hideous) baby blanket for another co-woker.

I am however learning things about the dynamics of knitting so it isn't like it is lost time.. just that it is really unattractive.

Let us see what else is going on. My job is being incredibly stressful, hence the not posting on here for a long time. Hopefully things will settle down, I had to hired a temp because everything at my job went to shitty shit.

The hubs and I are moving to another part of the "lower mainland". We are moving from Burnaby to New Westminster. It is like moving from the International District to Ballard community wise, but more like moving from The U-District to Wallingford distance wise.

So that is about it. I am going to be posting up some recipes and stuff on my other blog, so don't forget to check that out. <3

OH! OH OH! I got really freaked out last week.. I cut my hair (I paid someone) and then I BLEACHED MY HAIR OUT! It doesn't even look bad.  See, that is me knitting and looking retarded in public.

.... oh.. I am learning the Thriller Dance. You can learn to.. here is how the video breakdown and the script to memorize.
