Anyway, I was hoping to finish my new hat or at least have pictures and I do have one of the two. I don't have a completely finished hat. Finished involves sewing and considering I didn't even start eating dinner until 9, it's only 10 and my stars are not aligned in my favor because I have no needle small enough to sew. Here's what I have so far though:
The yarn is Malabrigo Merino Worsted. The colorway is Applewood. I bought it for my birthday (yaay!) and the pattern is from Son of a Stitch N Bitch, it's called the Half-Pipe Hat.
I should mention, my lack of posting is due to the fact I've been working out like the girl from Flashdance. It's ridiculous. I've hit the 35 minute mark with working out and someone at work is calling me skinny... which is ridiculous also, but motivating. I am EXHAUSTED!
Now I'd like to start a segment called "Why I am Never Getting Botox" and by segment I mean here's a paragraph as to why Botox is disgusting. I'm totally loving the show, "Real Housewives of OC" and there was a little scene where Tamra, the new, loud, obnoxious, blondest, hottest (and by hottest I mean fakest) housewife, gets Botox in her forehead. Before she gets her Botox splooged (it's the only verb i could think of that was nasty enough to describe Botox) into her face, she comments how people over forty have a distinct look-- oversized lips, fake tan, and "so much Botox your skin is shiny." What about too blonde, fake boobs, and no wrinkles regardless? And when is it EVER socially acceptable to grab your son's ass? Note to everyone reading this: just because Botox is readily available, doesn't mean you should use it. Unless you are getting your "woman" parts rejuvenated... that just becomes necessary at one point.
Oh.My.Yarn.Balls. Speaking of Botox, what is wrong with John Cusack's face!?
I have to go and try to understand what happened to the youthful boy we all fell in love with.

-=giggle=- You're blogs are always great for a smile. Especially you're views on people and their stupidity.
Good for you for being all hardcore about your exercising! And your cute hat- what are you using for the brim? I've been wondering about those brimmed, knitted hats. - Julie
Don't worry, I'm at a work meeting this week anyway (like a sucker!) but I'll be sure to alert the Canadian postal service to my eagerly- anticpated package of fish, scorpions, and misc illegal substances. Once they cracked open a perfume I ordered from Sephora. The ripped the tissue paper and everything. Spoilsports.
And as for the special addition to the package- yay! I'm so in! I'll knit it. I'll knit it GOOOD. (I don't even know what it is...)
