For All Y’all with Fanny Packs and Pony Tails, C’mon
Sometimes, I kind of like it when decisions are made for me. It takes the pressure off choosing an option, and means that I won’t be at fault for what happens.
I’m going to stay in Waukegan for the summer. Yeah, I know, I’ll miss a bunch of good stuff, but who else are you going to run to when you want to go to 6 Flags? Huh? Nobody.
Last night when I got home, I found the most beautiful manila envelope waiting for me. I have the instructions for the master knitter program.
Seriously, I don’t know if you understand how happy this made me. I’m so excited. I danced around my apartment a while, then read the instructions three times. I can’t wait to start. I emailed the Yahoo Group of master knitters-in-progress to ask if anyone wanted to be a mentor and answer the pesky questions I know I’ll have. Even better than that, a couple of Level 1 starters asked if we could have a support group, and talk our way through the whole thing. I’m so excited. That’s the best idea ever. I’m sure I’ll work faster knowing that there are others I am working with, and I won’t be banging my head against the wall because I don’t understand the directions.
Did I mention I’m excited?
1) Would you want to go see a band called The Ditty Bops with me on Friday, June 3rd at Martyr’s in Chicago? Their website is: http://www.thedittybops.com/ and they are an adorable female duo who I hear put a great show. I could hook you up with their music to get a samping.
2) If not going to a show, care to attend my predominantly family infested graduation party that is the next day (June 4th)? Probably not, but I thought I would extend the invitation since having a few people there who are my own age would help me not feel so generational-gap-ish.
err.. put on a great show. YES. They’re sort of folk, swing, whatever influenced. ALL I KNOW IS IT’S CUTE.
