Hockey has been preempted by baseball for the second day in a row and I'm getting actually pissy about it 😹😹

Jays better bloody win because this isn't worth it.

Right?! We all need less stress...

Kind of! I need to read it over and do a few potential tweaks. I'm pretty happy with it though.

I assume that looking like that would come with a *paycheck* which would alleviate a lot of stress lol. 🙈🙈

Aww I'm sorry work is boring tonight! I'm okay! Working on a project that is almost done, so that's good but I'm SO TIRED 😭😭😭

Tea tho 😹😹

I'd have fewer mental breakdowns if I looked like that I think. Lol. How are you, love?!

Yeah. *sigh* maybe in the new year. I don't have the time/money to invest in learning to knit right now lol.

Oh I get it. I have 3 bed-sized blankets and a throw. My vacuum storage bags are a life saver. I'm almost through my stash and am only buying yarn for actual projects now. I'm considering learning to knit though cuz I wanna make sweaters and crochet just isn't the same lol.

Oh yeah, I get 1000 yard stare, dark circles, absolute ugly crying... I need a stylist lol

Yeah, it's a LOT. My big granny hexagon cardigans take up so much space because I just used regular yarn to make them, rather than buying new, lighter weight yarn 😭😹😹

They are so very cute though and I would enjoy making them I think. Perhaps I should look into it. (But where would I store them and all the yarn?!)

But for real, I think the Leafs have a really solid team. Pápi has got a revenge bod going on after Marner left. The whole team is looking MEAN. Domi is great, he might be my fave, and I've enjoyed what I've seen from them so far!

K.S. Nightingale (Kai) @ksnightingale.bsky.social · 18h

Hahaha I love that.

Maybe this year is their year! 🙏 Although to be frank, I'm afraid that McDavid might have an aneurism if the Oil don't win the cup this year. 😹😹😹

I've got blankets and sweaters, and shawls. I haven't attempted lace yet. I don't think I'm good enough at counting to do plushies lol.

The outfit is adorable. I feel bad if he's in crisis/meltdown mode. I wish I looked that good having a meltdown 😹😹

Yeh it was 12-3 bottom of the 8th last time I checked. I'm pretty sure they won. 😹😹

Oh don't get me wrong, I'm all in for the Jays to win this, but the Flames got shafted by that today. (I'm in the broadcast region, it should've been on tv!) I'd genuinely enjoy the Leafs winning though. 🙏

Yay! I have yet to really make plushies but I'm glad that someone has some potentially! 🫶🫶

Omg the bows on his shoes 😭😭 he looks like he's either plotting something or having a menty b, and I think this is a delightful photo.

It's okay, I need to focus I can go one night without hockey 😹😹 (blue jays won so... I'm expecting more preempting on the next game 🙄)

I know @realelliotmacy.bsky.social does crochet plushies but I am unsure if octopus ones are available/possible.

Hockey is on, but I'm working so I'm not really watching. My team's game got preempted by baseball 👿👿

I know there are more pressing things going on but I'm tired to the point of crying and I genuinely don't feel good and I'm really, REALLY over it.

I love this answer and I love you 😹😹😹🫶🫶🫶🫶

Hockey Romance would smell like the hockey LI's cologne which I don't think I ever decided on what he actually smells like... or maybe popcorn? Idk hockey doesn't smell good lol. Her perfume is jasmine I think.

Ghost car would be leather and pine with a hint of amber and rain.

What would *your* book smell like if you engaged in a mega weirdo scented pages promotional campaign?

So disappointing. The editing was very bad, and it's from a publisher.
