Saturdayyyy Hodgepodge

Saturdays are funny days. Sometimes it seems like I have tons of stuff to do, other times I get here and think, "What am I going to do with myself?" Today is sort of in the middle. I slept in, watched some history channel and knit while drinking coffee, and went to a meeting with some rad chicks I know. Then I met my mom for lunch & went to the Y. Now I have a few hours to chill and hang out with Brian before going to a thing. (It's a surprise. Shh.)

I've been spinning again. I'd like to spin a little each evening I'm home, but it's hard when there's so many things I'd like to knit. Which is tough when I have so much freaking fiber. So in the interest of guilt-alleviation, I spun some yarn last week.

From this:

190 yards of 2-ply, worstedish weight. 

Here's quiz from The Yarnista's blog.

I Should…… ummm, SPIN MORE?!?

I Wish…… that the last 7 pounds would come off already. Sheesh.

I Hate…… the patriarchy, how much energy I devote into disliking my archrival, cleaning anything, bananas and mushy foods, and when peeps ain't pickin' up what I'm puttin' down.

I Fear……. uncertainty sometimes, becoming generally disliked by everyone I know, and Sarah Palin followers.

I Hear…… Brian watching TV, the neighbor's dryer running.

I Search…… my brain for a reason why I'm getting so many headaches lately. I think I need more coffee. Yes, that's definitely the solution.

I Wonder…… when looking at a starlit night, who made all this?

I Regret……. very few things. Can't really think of anything right now. That I can post on the internet.

I Usually…… read my mail in the bathroom. Brian just pointed this out to me the other day.
