Rock out with your socks out

About a month or so ago, I was planning to buy a new laptop. After realizing that our tax refund wasn't going to be as big as I initially thought, I decided to put that off for a while. Maybe next year. Next year, maybe I'll get this.

On to the knittin'...

Finally finished those damn Gryffindor scarves for my labmates. They were certainly tedious, but they look real nice. Here's the one I made for Allison, who shares my office (two Allisons in one room! Hilarious!) It's freaking huge, but it'll serve her well when she's driving her scooter to campus on those lovely thirty-degree rainy mornings. Too bad I didn't finish it a week ago.

(I appear to have no arms in this picture. Creepy.)

Guess what? I finished my first-ever pair of socks! They're a bit wonky (and the photo's a bit blurry), but they're mine; therefore, they are awesome. Behold!

So, now that I'm addicted, I started a pair for Paul, too. I'm using Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino: 55% merino, 33% microfiber, 12% cashmere, 100% yum. Harriet helped me with the cuff:

Where were you today, Harriet, when I turned the heel? Huh? WHERE WERE YOU?!?!?

Allison,

Harriet wanted me to pass on a message about your post:

"Rrrrrooew!"

She'll have to explain it. I have no idea what it means.

Meh. Yeah, I asked her, and my response? Harriet can suck it.

Great. Harriet used by account to log-in and wrote that last comment. Time to change my passwords.

Hell, let's get both of 'em their own Blogger accounts so they can tell the world how they slept for a few hours, then ate, then pooped, then ran really fast into another room and fell asleep again.

Fascinating.
