2 Things

1) I'm going to Knitch today! I have a gift certificate from Christmas and I get to GO to a REAL yarn store and SEE yarn before i buy it!!!!!!!!

2) The M bought my Valentine's Day present! (here, here, and here. We were going to buy a case for it as well, but we decided to get one at Walmart or Target, because the one we were going to get (the one that had the massively best reviews) didn't have a zipper and reviewers said they got much better ones that were cheaper and better in a normal retail store.

Yay!!!! And we're going out to a new restaurant! (ok, new to us). I've gotten AWESOME grades so far this semester and we are sooo proud of me that it's not even funny. :D

And, you wouldn't believe how fast a plain Jane sock could go when all you do is read for class all day. As soon as I posted the last post, the yarn decided to become finicky and pool everywhere, like I was concerned about here, here, and to a lesser extent, here, and I HATE pooling, so I found the other end of the center pull ball and started doing every two rows, two-ish rows from the outside of the ball, two-ish from the inside. Slightly less mindless, but I can handle it. It looks SO GOOD OMG. I am SO PROUD OF MYSELF. This is REAL, HONEST-TO-GOD KNITTING (ok, sorry about the caps thing. Can you tell that I'm a little excited??). And soon, I'll be able to put a picture up! Yay!!!!

Hopefully tomorrow, a review of my menu from two weeks ago and another menu. We'll see.

And, my grandpa's getting married 2/25!! Yay!
