Y’ALL. Oh my god. I can’t believe I went about a whole month without writing. I’m sorry. Worse, I’m not even making this a post worth reading. I suck!
I blame my phone. I can do so much on an iPhone that I hardly crack open a computer. If Hulu and Vimeo ever come out with iPhone apps I’m hosed.
But I’m fine, essentially, so there’s that.
I am even really knitting again! Check it -
(gosh, I hope that shows up. I’m composing this on the iPhone, which on the one hand, HAI GUYS TECHNOLOGY IS OSSIM but on the other hand I’m still working out how exactly it works)
I’m knitting a new pair of fingerless gloves, as I lost the pretty orangey mitts I made last fall. I like these better anyway – with a better understanding of handwarmer construction, these are turning out to fit much better than the Piper Mitts did, and going more quickly.
I’m calling these Bristol Mitts, because they’re loosely inspired by the gloves Mitchell wears in the BBC series “Being Human,” which I love beyond all reason. The show is filmed in Bristol, hence the name.
And speaking of TV! Oh man am I ever hooked on Glee. I sort of want to write a whole editorial post on Rachel Berry, because dudes. She bugs. I’ve been the unpopular chick with the big voice and…she is so willfully not self aware. It’s obnoxious. I think I’m supposed to relate to her and I don’t.
I do, however, adore Asshole Puck way more than I ought. He has the best lines, if only network television would stop being pandering wimps and allow an F bomb to be dropped once in a while, he’d be just perfect.
I mean the show is just awesome. I’ve even downloaded some of the songs that they sing in the episodes. I particularly love their very clever and well performed cover of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’,” mostly because they doo-wop the piano bits vocally and it is, it really is, stupidly clever. Love it so much.
Mentally and spiritually I’m all good. Physically…well, I’m still losing weight, but I think my stress fractures are flaring up in my left leg again, and Trilby slashed my face open last week during a Midnight Freakout.
So I could be doing better there. Sigh.
Not to mention the Insomniac Period I went through earlier, that was fun.
But eh. Shit happens. Nothing I can’t cope with and overall things are still pretty awesomesauce. I mean, I’m going to Vegas at the end of the month and staying in a five star hotel for free, and I reconnected with an old friend last night through the magic of the internet. That’s fairly cool.
So that’s that. Sorry I disappeared. I will attempt not to do that again. Maybe.
All depends on Hulu and Vimeo…
