I'm sorry I'm a bad blogger

I love blogs. I obsessively check the blogs i follow for updates. i love ready about what other people share with me about there life. I like hearing about there knitting, there families, and anything remotely funny. If bloggers updated everyday, it still wouldn't be enough for me. I use to have a Xanga where I would check to see if people commented on my posts dozens of times a day. And I would only post once to twice a week. Seriously, I was on there at least once an hour and would not post. What is wrong with me? Its not like I have nothing to write about, I compose blog entries in my head everyday. I just sit there and look absent to the world as I visual my posts and work out the wording in my head. Sometimes while I am in my head happily composing stories about unimportant things, Nik will look at me and go "what!?"
"huh babe? did you need something?"
"Do you need something? You're staring at me."
"Am not"
"What were you thinking about?"
And then I'll tell him about how I was wondering how hard it would be to convert a sock pattern using sock yarn into a wrist warmer pattern using worsted weight yarn and if it would still give me a good stitch definition or would the stitch number repeats not work out...
And he will be sorry he asked. Actually, he has stopped asking. He'll usually only ask if he thinks I'm feeling neglected to seem interested. Sweet boy, really.

I also love long posts. I could ramble on forever. Because once I get going I can usually lead into about 2 full typed pages of nonsense before I lose interest with myself.

Knitting!
I'm on Ravelry. I heart is a lot. I also love the story and coding behind ravelry and it makes the nerd in me happy. ok, and jealous of his mad skills.

I finished the giant man sweater! YAY!(note: NikHATES that I call it the giant man sweater, but a large sweater is a lot of knitting) And I need to redo the zipper. BOO. I f'ed it up real good.

Next post: a pattern! yay! For my spiral hat done in Tunisian crochet. super amazing. After looking at it, it is almost exactly like Odessa from Knitty.com without the beads. I amaze myself.
To do list: fix this site with pattern links and make it better represent my mad graphic web programmer skills
(graphic web programmer?? what the hell is that. Its the made up word for someone who major is to confusing to explain so they invented a word that mildly less confusing to the random person or relative. You probably guessed, my major was half computer science, 1/4 graphic design(art), and 1/4 media. Kind of handy stuff to know.)
