We do spend an inordinate amount of time discussing Johnny Dollar in this household. Just had a solid discussion of the regeneration episodes, when the insurance frauds would kill Johnny but then he'd reappear with an entirely different voice. (Bob Bailey is my Tom Baker?)

My dog was about 5 when we got him, so I'm really grateful for a lot of behaviors I had nothing to do with. One Best Little Doggie habit is he never tries to lick our faces and almost never licks anything else, but just in the last month he's decided hands are tasty. WTF, dude?

I bought some Caron Cakes specifically to make a 10-row blanket, but it turns out I don't *like* making the 10-row blanket. I wanted something that was mindless and fun, and I liked the corners but hated the attaching, and you do that every row. 🧵(1/2)

I don't think it's right that I can get another type of sick on top of the sick I already had. Been living off Gatorade since Saturday, this sucks. (But if you get blue and yellow flavors you can mix them to make green, which is somehow worse but also something to do, anyway.)

My lil' doggie decided I put these on the couch for him, but they're a bit too big for his paws. Haven't blocked yet, but I like 'em! The whole reason I chose ravel.me/diamond-lace... was because I like toe-up socks, so I wanted to see if finger-down gloves were good. They are! #knitting 🧶🧵(1/2)

Technically I finished #knitting these yesterday, but I was too loosey goosey trying to resize the right one on the fly AND I misunderstood how to join the fingies. So I frogged it and restarted to match the left glove, which is good and fits. New gloves tomorrow! 🧶

I have things I need to do but my dog needs to sit on my lap so I guess that's what we're doing. At least I can post FINGIES! ravel.me/diamond-lace... in the Knitpicks Stroll I frogged. I don't actually hate this yarn, it's just bad for cables. #knitting 🧶

Finally: 2/4 Melt the ICE (ravel.me/melt-the-ice...) hats, slightly altered for my family's giant noggins. I promise it's an easy knit even if you're just beginning, so there's no reason not to try. #knitting 🧶

Wanted to try a new genre, but I'm bad at managing library holds so I'm reading 3 series at once. So far, Hunter > Court of Thorns and Roses > Fourth Wing. Nicest thing I can say about FW is at least I can have an informed conversation about it now, and it wasn't so bad I didn't finish it.

I have illustrated the problem and the solution, I just need someone to make the product for me.

For someone who can't rotate objects in their head, I feel like I have a pretty good understanding of where the yarn goes when I knit. I tried this version of the tubular cast-on and I absolutely cannot understand how it works. Magic? 🧶 #knitting www.interweave.com/article/knit...
Two Cast-Ons for Ribbing
Learn two cast-ons for ribbing, the alternating long-tail cast-on and the tubular cast-on. Both flow beautifully into knitted ribbing.

I'm taking The World's Dumbest AI Training and the presenter keeps using "touch grass" to mean "touch base" and I hope he gets eaten by a bear.

Last night the snowplow came around 1 and I got up to look at it and it's the tiniest plow I've ever seen, about the size of a forklift. Which explains why it was plowing our block for over an hour. Street is barely better, and it pushed the snow up against the cars so now we're even more stuck.

I give up. I hate working with this yarn, I don't like having to concentrate on each stitch of each row, the tiny cables are annoying, and even if I finish this glove I'll never make a second one. The file I was using to track rows got corrupted, and I just dropped ANOTHER stitch. Frogging. 🧶

Some truck drove down our street 5 times at 3 am, so I thought they were finally plowing the snow, but none of it seems to have been removed, so now I'm confused. (Also stuck.)

Whenever I see Drake I'm happy that experimental stem cell treatment got him out of that wheelchair. Turns out when I see Jeff Conaway guesting on an episode of Murder, She Wrote, I'm happy that Bobby's acting career was working out for him.

Audiobooks are great and I love them. I just realized 75% of the way through this book that they're saying "pers"(onal) "com"(municator) and not "pursecom," which was a very confusing visual.

Finished ravel.me/point-edward.... I've been so sick this was exactly the amount of complex I could handle between coughing and naps. I made them more armwarmer length so they'd fit down the big sleeves of the sweater, extreme coziness! #knitting 🧶

I wanted to use a pillow for the background of the pictures, but my dog saw pillow + lap and was certain it was for snuggling purposes.

Oh, do I get a nice long weekend full of terrible weather? Better get sick so I can't even enjoy the good parts of that. Had to put Meisi away for a bit because I can't deal with that amount of chart right now, I'm working on ravel.me/point-edward... instead. Using up the leftover sweater yarn!

Yesterday I cast on for ravel.me/meisi. Had to rip back something like 15 rows, and there are still some messed up parts but nothing I can't live with. This yarn (knitpicks Stroll) is a very bad choice on my part, it's way too splitty to do these stitches in. #knitting 🧶

2 years ago today we got our little doggie! He was picked up as a stray so we have no idea about his past life, just weird clues that we've put together. (His old family were exterminators???)
