crow with a side order of creamed corn

i must clarify some things that i posted in my last notey:

1. i wound up using the case that my KPs needles came in. it's not too bad. i numbered the needles on the metal base and also labeled each slot for each pair (too anal retentive). i also ordered the size 13, 15 and 17 except one size (the 13 i think) won't be out until this wednesday (same as the DPNs). so i'll have to order those later. i also ordered more cords (the 24s and the 32s). dumbass me ordered them AFTER i put in an order for 3 skeins of fingering yarn (for bookmarks for the boy's teachers) on the same day. so now i have an $8 bill and a $30 with KPs. duh.

oh yeah, the needles are like buttah. just wonderful. BUY THEM.


2. how was i to know that people don't dress up for retirement dinners? thank goodness i didn't wear my bridesmaid's dress (it's dressy without looking to wedding-y). so i wore my blue slinky pantsuit and put a pin over the hole in my top (unfortunately purls (heh - freudian slip) don't go with sapphires so i couldn't wear my necklace). at least i didn't wear a girdle to this thing (which i would have done had i worn the dress) i would have been really pissed. bad enough i wore my choos which by the end of the night my feet felt like i was wearing bear traps on them. ugh.


3. my neighbors are back after being gone for 3 months. i don't know if they were camping or trucking or what but now they're home. (i'm such a stickybeak). and they finally got rid of the weed patch growing in their flower bed.


4. i spent an obscene amount of money on PUMPKINS this year. got pissed last night and chucked a cheese pumpkin into the street. to my neighbor whom part of it landed in your yard, i'm sorry. better to throw the pumpkin than hurl my kid.


5. why can't i get thru to my kid that he NEEDS TO NAP OR ELSE HE MELTS DOWN? that stuff made with white flour is BAD for you? and no, you can't have cranky after i spent $40 on getting lady, harry and burt and rocky AND my folks got him spencer which cost $20? what is with his martyr complex?


6. i discovered a new yarn shop about 15 minutes from my house. yesterday i went to see what it was like. they sell LION BRAND YARN. RED HEART YARN. nothing fancy (not that there's anything wrong with lion brand and red heart). but i can buy these yarns at ac moore or ben franklin if i really wanted them. what a disappointment.


7. sara lives. big oops on my part for guessing she'd die. i'm glad she didn't. she's actually one of my favorite characters on there. sara reminds me of me - smart snarky science geek. i have no idear what will happen to the character on the show but i'm glad she was spared.


8. my head hurts and my eyes feel like someone poured acid on them.

where's my hamburger and chicken sandwich?
