It hasn't escaped my notice that there hasn't been much knitting or anything close to it mentioned on in this knitting blog lately.  Contrary to the way it may seem, knitting is never really far from my mind.  As evidence, I submit to you the fact

Day 1 of Take 2 on the Apartment Search

19 March 2005, Saturday 11:59 P GMT-08
Today we went back and looked at some apartments that we had passed by in our earlier search.  Not because these places aren't as nice, just because we didn't want to make ourselves crazy by looking at too many places.  We found one that has defini

Monday Night at the Movies

John and I went to see Robots.  We give it two thumbs up.  Typical free-flowing Robin Williams humor.  Funny pop-culture references.  Great animation.  Fun music.  Cute story.  We were also excited because we knew that the previews would inclu

Interweave Knits Is in the House!

13 March 2005, Sunday 11:59 P GMT-08
I finally received the Spring 2005 issue of Interweave Knits.  I haven't checked my mailbox in a while so you know it probably arrived the day after I gave up on it.  I was getting rather nervous because the last time I looked for it at the booksto
