You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

I did not pitch cutting the hand off...but I may have reenacted Lindsey's evil hand schtick in the writers room.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That gives me such joy.

Man, good Nikita this week. Nice job with some complicated emotional stuff, Kristen.

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it. I just finished working on some scenes that might possibly be the craziest complicated emotional stuff I've ever done. And, as a bonus, incredibly creepy too!

I'm never getting to sleep tonight.

I wanted a "special" hook for a tricky project I'm about to start - and there it was...a present for me to make a present for someone else.

Thrive to spite them

In the crafty vein. I'm still trying to finish my Xmas presnt for my grandmother. I was going to make both her and my aunt fingerless gloves. The pattern deals with yarn overs and what not. I'm using bamboo yarn for Grandma's. The whole combo of the yarn and the pattern has beaten me. I thought I was ready to start the thumb gusset and took out the finished glove to make sure they'd line up.

I realized I made a whole mess of the bottom pattern somehow and need to rip it out and restart the project. AGain. This is probably the twelfth time completely restarting this pair. I can't do it anymore. I hate the yarn. I hate the pattern. I don't even want to knit anymore with this over me.

So I'm going to the knitting stitch and bitch tonight to bitch and maybe come up with another idea.

Yeah, sounds like that project needs a time-out.

Thrive to spite them

I have another idea. I'm making a shawl for my grandma. I'm going to do the finishing bits on the gloves for my aunt and send them to her.

The shawl is kind of harder -it's sock yarn on size 7 needles, but it's fairly straight forward. The pattern calls for yarn overs which I've had issues with but there's a variation with Make 1 instead so that's what I'm doing. It's this pattern [link]
