I've been a bad bad girl......I've been careless with a delicate man.....or should I say checkbook? My LYS is have a 30% off sale all month and I just can't resist! I am going to Las Vegas in less then two days and I cannot kick my yarn addiction! I have tried support groups, accupuncture (doubt that is spelled right) and even a swift knock in the head from my boyfriend (not really just saying that for dramatic effect) but I still have an uncontrollable craving for fiber goodness (in the sheep sense, to much fiber in food gives me a stomach ache). Fortunately I live far enough away from the roving shop in my area that I am to lazy to go often or I would be buying tons of that!
But back to the yarn, I bought 5 skeins of Plymouth Sockotta sock yarn!! I know it isn't exactly luxury yarn, but I love the fun patterns it makes, not to mention I am on a 'I am going to knit everyone a pair of socks for Christmas!' kick and I need my fix. The green yarn I am knitting my toe up sock on is one of the skeins I bought on last wednesday (?) along with a pretty grey one, but yesturday I bought 3 more skeins......5 skeins and two circular needles later I spent $60 I prolly should not have spent since I am going to be spending obsene amounts of money next week....but oh well!! I love my yarn and it is in the best colors don't you think?!
::Sigh:: Oh so loverly.....I cannot wait to start knitting these socks.....but I suppose I should finish the pair I am working on....or maybe I can make one of each to keep it interesting and then start the cycle over again! MWHAHAHA the plot thickens! Oh! I also bought a book for the long trip to Vegas in case I get tired of knitting for a while.....and of course it is a book about knitting! Or at least someone who knits. I don't think it needs any introduction, I sure any committed knitter knows who she.....no not the Yarn Harlot, though her books are next on my list! Its Drunk, Divorced and Covered in Cat Hair by Crazy Aunt Purl!!!! AKA Laurie Perry =)

Sorry for the bad picture ::sigh::.....I absolutely LOVE her blog, it is incredibly funny and unique. She is so witty you just don't want to stop reading ( even if you are at work and would get into an incredible amount of trouble ^_^;) so I am excited about the book, I am sure it will be great =)
There is so much to do before the trip it is making my head spin! Packing and shopping and laundry and pampering (haircut, nails, eyebrows) I just want to go to sleep....but no time for that! I am a girl on the go and it is time to stop whining and start doing what I have to do! To bad I am beyond lazy ::sigh again::
