Things I would like...

1. for someone to knit me a sweater like this one Rachael did for Lala, except with different motifs [as I'm not an exceptionally cool banjo player]. Maybe a nice moose. A maple leaf. A rabbit with a toque. Something Canadian.

2. soup. Would someone make me some soup?

I think these two are related. It's COLD today. You'd think it was November or something.

Newsy updates:

Sally Melville is an amazing, creative, funny woman. She also has a killer bod. She wore a little leotard top last night so that she could whip off what she was wearing [the cover sweater from her third book] and try on each piece as she talked about it. There were catcalls. I will neither deny nor confirm any involvement. Blame Emma.

I bought another spindle last night. Stop it. You'll find out why soon enough.

The Frappr map is freaking cool. It also doesn't work very well with OS 9, which is what I use at the office. But when I got home last night, all sorts of sweet faces were waving at me from all over the world. I love this! If you're not on yet, add yourself, please? I've been going around and doing the same with the blogs I read.

Here: I made a little less nauseating button. Feel free to steal [though you'll want to change the code for your own map]!

It seems some cool bloggers are discovering the pleasures of a pretty, mindless knit [not to be confused with a pretty mindless knit]. AKA a knitting project that takes little brainpower, is soothing to work on, shows off interesting yarn well, and is actually wearable when you're done. This makes me very happy.

Okay. Clearly no one is getting me any soup, so I'm going to get some myself. Later.
