crossing another baby off the list
Last night I tooled around with a gift for my friend LK’s baby. LK is perhaps a bigger Buffy fan than I am; she owns all 7 seasons on DVD, whereas I stalled out at the first 3 (and she bought me season 3!). Now, I don’t know if the baby will be a boy or a girl, but I think she’ll like a Buffy-themed gift even if she has a boy—maybe he’ll grow up to have all the good qualities of, say, Xander (but not the dumb ones).
So I knit up a baby-sized Mr. Pointy.
timing couldn’t have been better
I literally drew the yarn through from sewing the second sleeve just as the Seahawks ran out the clock on their last play of the game. I still had two stitches to go when the Steelers started celebrating, and because I wasn’t paying close attention, I thought I’d missed my own personal deadline, but it turned out I hadn’t! Thrilling, down-to-the-wire play.
the world is ipod crazy
Two coworkers (maybe three, I’m not sure) got ipods for Christmas. The headphones are in their ears all the time. Heck, even my mother got an ipod for Christmas. It makes me think back to a year and a half ago, when I got my own ipod. Now I’m all jealous of the new, super-slim 30G (smaller than my 20!) with large color screen, etc., but my love for my ipod hasn’t wavered.
An about a year ago, after several prototypes went unused, I made and adopted my own cozy for the little guy.
