Work was work today. My manager did not tell me that he was going to be out of the office this afternoon, so I had this stack of stuff I needed his input on and he was not there. But - I don't stress about stuff like that anymore. The stack will be there Monday and I will handle it then. Things will be finished when I can finish them. Strangely enough since I got this new attitude and I quit working weekends and into the evenings my pending files have been reduced and I think the overall quality of my work has improved. Huh. How'd that happen? Of course I have every intention of working this weekend except I wanna get version 1.0 of "Mission Temple" completed, I'm clipping and storyboarding "Closer," and I have another Buffy POV idea that I'm itching to try out plus I have to clean the house, spend QT with the dog, work on my Halloween costume, and I really should balance my checkbook and leave the house after dark. Oh yeah, it's time to dye my hair and I should get all of my sweaters out of the cedar chest and lay them out to air - I should also air out the gray merino poncho with the light pink trim that I made 3 years ago - I based it on the design of a poncho my father's mother made for my mother when she was pregnant with Dawn - cept I made mine in the round on these awesome Addi Turbo needles and since I was going through a bout of fairly major depression it just kept growing and growing - I was too apathetic to cast-off. At this point it is just an incredibly soft and warm blanket I can wear. With fringe. Actually I won't get the heavy sweaters out. I need to accept that this is Memphis. Maybe I'll go skiing this winter. That's what I'll tell the poor neglected sweaters when I have to put them back.

I've got a friend who is fixing me up. Maybe. I haven't decided. Her reasoning is she knows a guy, he's about my age and he is single. According to her it's a match. I have severe reservations - apparently both of his parents are still living. I really would rather date an orphan. It would just simple things up - y'know?

Saussy,

You could knit!! It is easy - I swear. Go to a local yarn shop and tell the lady behind the counter that you want to learn the basics. She'll have you stitching in 10 minutes. The rest of the process just comes along naturally.

Let us know if you have any trouble. Dawn had to have Cappy set her's up for her, but we have come along way since then (uh, about a month ago).
