Thursday listing (for fun)

1. An amazing gift of love&excitement takes me with some fantastic friends to see ‘Phantom of the Opera’ tonight! I haven’t spent much time with the show since high school, but back in those days I could take on any Christine-wannabe (or at least I thought I could in the shower). ;)

2. I haven’t even stepped into The Shop since the night before my art opening. The whole month of August, I suppose, I took off. Well, now that autumn is upon us, I feel the desire again to snip snip snip!

3. I’m VERY excited to get our Knitting/Crafting, what used to be our ‘Stitch n’ Bitch’ group together again. I’ve been feeling a bit estranged. What is it about moving just a few miles out of downtown that causes this in me?

4. I have also come to terms with my obsessive&unhealthy relationship with Super Mario Bros. Yes YES YES, I’m not kidding. It’s not that the game is awful, because it’s actually FANTASTIC, it’s that it ALWAYS puts me in this sour mood. The only way to stop playing is to lose, which means dying, which means you’re making mistakes, and is of course, frustrating! BAHHHH! I need to seriously distance myself.

5. You see, it doesn’t matter what it is, if I can do it over and over again, I will undoubtedly develop some kind of semi-addiction to it. It’s happened with computer card games, with Tetris, with playing real cards, with cheese, with WHATEVER, I’m just weak…or is it easily entertained?

6. Cloves are delightful.

7. I’m suffering from a lack of initiative at work lately.

8. I’ve found myself in many political conversations these last few weeks. I’ve realized how out of touch and uninformed I am. How embarrassing!

9. I’ve also found myself in some heated email discussions debating the merits of different pens. Now THAT’S something I know about! Haha!

i am soooo sooo happy and excited to start up the knitting again. hopefully it will help with the estranged feelings. I must say, from my point of view when you are married and raising a family it at times becomes very difficult NOT to feel that way. Unless you have friends that spontaneously drop in at anytime (which is rare) you have to make plans and make plans and make plans. Invite your friends over for dinner, for a drink. it wont always work out but it will keep the connections going.
much love
