Found out too late that when the president of the company is sitting at his desk, he sees right into it.

I skipped day 3 because I already told you all my WIPs and I don’t want to talk about it, okay!
I “learned” to “knit” (big ol’ air quotes) my first year in college, using YouTube. I later learned that I had somehow found the ONLY instructional video on the whole internet that teaches you to knit in this weird way that they...

Tonight I:
Drank a spiked milkshake at Red Robin
Almost fell asleep in a recliner at Sears
Flashed a lot of my right leg at a car that turned out to not be my mom
Am going to bed very late
Pretty good night, if I may say so myself.

Feminist Friday: A Song I Love
Le Homme by Boy Crisis
“I’m on some drugs, you’re on some drugs/do you wanna talk to me?
And if you don’t that’s cool as well/I’m on the other end if you need me.”
Thanks for being respectful of the fact that ladies don’t always want to talk to you, dudes.

Day 1: What was your first finished project?
I think my first knitted project was this big ol’ grey ribbed cowl I made. It’s so big and comfy and I still wear it today.
It might have been something else but I don’t know. Those early project are all kind of fuzzy…

Oh man, I can’t wait to go back to both of my jobs this week, both of which are definitely NOT causing me a lot of anxiety.
*Disclaimer: I don’t want to sound ungrateful or like I don’t realize how lucky I am to have two jobs when so many people can’t find one, but that doesn’t mean I can’t be stressed out about them does it? Nah.
