it’s friday the 13th. knowing how my days go on a “normal” day, i know that what i should do is go right back to bed.
was that even a sentence? i’m sure there’s one in there somewhere.

i’ve started taking a knitting class. (i’ll wait while you laugh)

ANYway. it’s at the lutheran church on wednesday nights at 6pm. anyone can attend. and? best of all? it’s free. i’m almost certain that knitting isn’t the hardest thing to do, however, so far, i feel like an uncoordinated retardo montalban. it’s like i’m all thumbs and butterfingers. buttahfingahs!

but the hardest part about knitting so far is trying not to swear. because there i am, at church, surrounded by sweet church ladies, and i’m totally sucking wind at knitting, and the urge to yell, “son of a bitch!” every time my yarn slips off the needle is too great a temptation. so i mumble a lot. and also you can hear me saying, “no!”, “what the-?”, and “this can’t be right.” over and over.

my goal is to knit a blanket for laura’s wee fleegan. i figure a baby blanket will be an easier task than say, an adult blanket. of course, she may not get it until the baby’s like, 13 years old, but at least i’ve set a goal, dammit.

hey all you geeky gamers. is gametap any good? is it worth the monthly fee? cos see, i’d like to play some of those old games. but i’m just not sure how easy it is to actually play them on a computer. and? can you save your games? i don’t think you could actually save many of those games anyway but they used to give you a code right? so you wouldn’t have to start at the beginning each time? any suggestions and tips would be appreciated. http://www.fleegan.com/forum2
