Birthday happies to Tim.
This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
Happy Birthday! Coincidentally enough, I just watched "Out of Gas" last night. Still one of the finest hours of television anywhere, ever.
Here's hoping that the beagles bring *you* treats today!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Happy Birthday Tim!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
So! Craft thread! I am attempting to take up knitting again. I started to learn about eight years ago, started the interminable scarf and, of course, quit.
Then this past flu, I decided that I had all this yarn, and knitting seemed like a good sick activity. And lo and behold, it was much easier this go around. I started out with potholders, cribbing off lj synecdochic's advice to do dishcloths. And that went much better, and I felt like I was achieving something, and whoo.
I'm still doing that novice thing where my stitches are too tight on the needle, and I am somewhat baffled by the various methods with which I'm supposed to hold the yarn in my fingers to maintain tension. But it's fun, and I'm doing better.
So my question is, will I be able to knit on the train? I'll have a total of about 72 hours where I don't have to drive or pay attention to anything much, and with my recent bouts of insomnia who knows if I'll be able to sleep on the train. So I thought maybe I could bring my yarn and needles. Any reason why I shouldn't?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I knit on the NYC subways often, I see no reason why you wouldn't be able to on the train. YAY knitting.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
If your ticketed seats are too tight a fit to knit comfortably (I'm often afraid of hitting someone with my elbows), you can always sit in the, what's it called, the car with the big windows that usually has the snack bar downstairs, and get some knitting in.
