Imagine me squealing...

...in a pitch that only dogs and dolphins can hear.

Despite starting off rather craptacularly, the day is winding down quite nicely:

• Chico, the Young Sir, and I had a great dinner at our favorite local restaurant.


• I'm all set for Maryland Sheep & Wool tomorrow. Aieee! Aieeee! It's finally here!


• The summer issue of Interweave Knits arrived today.


• So! Did! My! Ball winder! I already have my swift, so now I can wind hanks into yarn cakes with style and verve!


• I found a jumbo size box of Bottle Caps candy at Target the other night; I'm eating only my favorite flavors - cola and root beer.

Tonight, I'll play with some yarn while winding it into cakes and then take a nice bath; I've got some great Lush bath bombs to choose from, some red wine to drink, and a new knitting magazine to peruse. After that, it's off to bed early and then onto a bus filled with other fiber freaks to spend a whole day amongst My Kind. As if the yarn and animals weren't good enough, there'll also be lots of Ravelry people to meet.

AND! My super awesome mom will be here in just ONE WEEK. One week from today, from right now, she will BE HERE.

Ah yes, life is quite good.
