Twists of Fate

Inaugural Edition.

It is Wednesday, right? With this mind numbingly boring job, I can’t be sure. I’m really tempted to actually work on my WIP at my desk, since officemate insists on keeping the door shut and the blinds closed. She’s not here, but everyone is used to that mode of action so I could probably do it.

Alas, I shall fart around on the intarwebs instead.

Anyway, back to the actual content, I have a crappy cell phone pic of a real live WIP!

Socks from Ann Budd’s book, at 8spi. I should probably add more info to my project page on ravelry. Maybe later. For now, I’m enjoying working with the yarn, and my favorite JKL DPNs. These needles are stainless steel, so they’re heavier than most, but they also have little to no copper or nickel on the surface, which makes my allergic-to-those-metals fingers happier too. My other needles of choice for DPN sock knitting (really, the only kind I’ve tried to date), are Inox. The teflon coating makes them a little stickier, but again, my fingers appreciate the relief from icky.

By the by, the CD you see poking out from under the ball of Seaweed Latte is called Hemi-Sync Lightfall. I really like the Hemi-Sync products, and have a number of them in a box somewhere, as well as on my computer-tower-that-is-not-plugged-in. I find the meditation and relaxation ones astonishingly effective, especially if I use them as I’m going to sleep. Sadly, I tend to drop off about halfway through, but I guess it’s a kind of endorsement for the relaxation part of the process. :D

Happy Wednesday everyone! Oh! And YAY GO RED SOX! Nice job Beckett. Pedroia? You da man. Jacoby & Lowell, keep lookin’ hot. *nods firmly*
