travesty

Everyone on reality TV is always calling every little minor drama a travesty. Tonight there was a real, actual travesty: that stupid, sullen, wiggly soap actress Kelly "My Primary Talent is Having Hips" Monaco won on Dancing With the Stars. I am officially disappointed in the weak, caving judges. John O'Hurley was a much better dancer and had actual chemistry and fun with his partner, Charlotte Jorgensen. A big POO on stupid ABC for having the star of one of its crappy soap operas win and tell the world she's going to go to Disneyland. Synergy my ass.

On the better side of today, K and I put up the new hammock. (The former hammock died an early death due to not being taken indoors last winter. Totally weak, I admit it.) So we tried it right out and it rocks! Pretty much the same as the old hammock. Yay!

"Mine."


Brodie kept walking all over us and his nails need to be trimmed so after a few we just put him on there and watched him get his sea legs while we teased him with the Mean Kitty.


In knitting news, I am finally blocking the cotton-ease sweater (in blueberry) I finished a few weeks ago. One sleeve ready to go, the other sleeve almost done, then a front and a back and I'll be ready to sew it up. I'm almost finished with a wrap I've been making to test out Micro-Spun. So far I really enjoy working with it. I'm not having much problem at all with splitting (as per several reviews I read). I've been toying with the idea of knitting a wrap for myself for the wedding. Anyone know of any yarns that'd work well for such a thing? I'd want something light, elegant, black, and perhaps with a tiny bit of glitz.
