Morning!

So.. no comments on my new format? Awww.. come on.. First off.. Thanks bludragonlady (I think I know who you are) for your awesome comments..... that was a nice way to check my email and see your comment yesterday morning.. I know you see me from outside my circle.. and I"m on the inside.. so it's a good check to see if ya'll are seeing me wallowing in self pity for long amounts of time.. or if i'm on the sunny side of the street...

ok.. So i'm going to make this posting short... or try to anyway :)

1. I do not like Traffic... Sam I am.. (I mean.. who does? right?) oh my gosh.. it's so funny to me.. I consider myself a relatively peaceful person.. trying to go with the flow with outside experiences (ok there are exceptions) but DANG!!!! I just don't get it.. I sit in traffic.. pondering the reason for the backup.. 9 times out of 10.. it has nothing to do with an accident.. and more to do with people merging.. other cars not letting them in... and rubbernecking.. UGH!) it took me an hour to get to work yesterday.. and almost 2 hours to get home!!! It was raining quite hard and you KNOW what that mean.. everyone PANICS!!! OOH OOH.. the rain... (now for me.. the one exception is snow.. I don't do snow well.. drive in it i mean) I was SO frustrated both getting to work yesterday AND coming home last nite!! Trust me.. you would've NOT wanted to be in the car with me driving to and fro... GRRRR.

2. I'm learning how to KNIT!!!! YEA YEA YEA!!! On Monday.. one of the designers, Linda.. told me that she is crocheting.. i said.. do you know how to knit? I brought my yarn and needles in on Tuesday.. she brought them home tuesday nite.. so she could 'cast' (the first row of stitches) and then did a few more rows to get me started... Yesterday at lunch I sat with her in the lunchroom and she taught me how to knit and purl!!! I'm SOOOOOOOOO excited! I have wanted to learn how to knit for a LONG time.. I need some more practice.. in getting into a rhythm.. and not making the stitches too tight... but I think I got it! I am making a 12" wide scarf!!! woo hoo!!! I was laying in bed last nite.. just knitting away !! (until I realized I made a boo boo that I can't fix.. gotta bring it in today so Linda can fix!) So if you need me.. I'll be on my couch.. making a Scarf!!! :)

Went on my date last nite... um.. NO THANKS. It was a waste of 2 hours.. and of 15 dollars. (I was starving after sitting in traffic for almost 2 hours.. so we got dinner.. it wasn't good) I can say that I feel FINE with not trying to solicit myself to anyone for QUITE some time... and try to just go out and do fun things.. in the hopes of 'not looking'

Anyway all... I hope you have a good day!
onward and upward.
