I’ve got your pathetic riiiiiight here, baby


Wow. What happened to my day? Let’s take it from the top, shall we?

First up there was the chickens going off at some unholy hour this morning, leading me to the realization that the Booger was already up and downstairs watching Buffy.

Got up, threw on my favorite pj bottoms and a thermal shirt, grabbed the pieces of Angela’s new wheel and headed for the basement.

Ooh! Coffee! Back up the stairs I go. Coffee made, back down the stairs. This concludes the exercise portion of today’s program.

Get the Rose put together and adjusted to suit, bust out with 4oz of alpaca from Winderwood Farms and spin for the first time in weeks. Numerous episodes of Buffy go by. Woo! 122yds of 2-ply pretty pretty pretty alpaca yarn!

Realize my ass is totally asleep.

I think there was some breakfast in there somewhere.

Switch to another wheel and some baby camel/silk blend.

Avoid the dirty looks from Booger and Critter Boy as they pull strands of silk out of their sandwiches at lunch.

Have the sinking suspicion that the ball of camel/silk is actually getting bigger and not smaller as I spin.

More spinning, more food.

OMFG. It’s 10:30 and I’m still in my pj’s.

Really? What more could you ask of a Saturday?

Heading back to the Seattle Knitting Expo tomorrow morning on my way to drop the Booger off. Maybe if I’m lucky I’ll run into more folk I know. And maybe if you’re lucky I’ll have pictures to show for it.

    Nothing wrong with a productive day of spinning accomplished in jammies. What tempted at the Expo? Did you have fun?

    I thought jammies were required garb for happy spinning. Was I wrong? Am I suffering from delusions (again)?
