I have to do the hat, I promised. I just have to do it and get it done already. At least I picked a pattern that looks doable.
Alpaca, yay! Which brand?

oooh. that's going to be a bite in the ass. because it swirls, so at rough glance, you have to make on one end and decrease on the other.
Oh no! I'm totally wrong. It doesn't.

Still gonna bite, but I couldn't find anything else that would work with such a thin thread.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
While the whole paying for cuddles thing kinda squicks me, some of my best yoga sessions have involved a lot of touching. I'm crap at learning physical stuff, so when a yoga teacher puts her hands on my body and moves it into the position she wants it, there's often a *click* of "Oh, yeah, this does feel more stable/stretchy/whatever." But there's a very clear idea of who is touching and where and how/when/why. There's no emotional context other than, "Let's get this right."
I've found Pilates much the same way. Half the time I feel like mentioning to the instructor "You know, in some cultures this'd constitute a marriage proposal." (The instructor is a rather attractive woman, who's also extremely limber; I was curious to find out if I'd have personal space issues, and it turns out I don't, particularly, in this context at least.)
tommyrot, is that the "I've got a brand new pair of roller skates; you've got a brand new key" song? I love that song, and have since I was little.
There was a very odd spoof of that song by the Wurzels called "I've Got A Brand New Combine Harvester".
The ending of Real Genius?
I won a trip to Europe from that movie. I should probably get myself a copy of it, give something back to the community.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Huh? Yes it does.

Can't you run the thread with other yarn? and then do a different hat?

She specifically asked for that yarn, so i'm thinking no.
Yes it does.
Ah, it's different! I was using "s", not "strike".

"s" is spoiler/whitefont.

Huh. It didn't do that either - it just didn't do anything. Oh well. It's not like I post often enough to remember all this anyway. :-D
