eeee! I just checked my Creative Writing class online, and I got a 95 on my short screenplay! WOO!
I was concerned about it–didn’t think it was very good at all–so this is excellent! I am now 99.5% sure that I’m going to pull As for the summer session. And I was thinking in recent weeks that I might get Bs. yay
Do you think it would be ok to break my yarn diet in celebration of my grades?!
If you left a comment sometime yesterday and didn’t see it show up immediately, my Akismet spam catcher plugin was buggy. I emailed them for help and got a pretty quick response, and Matt from Automattic was able to help me fix the problem.
In the interim, I downloaded and installed Spam Karma, which worked well, though it has a ton of features I had no clue what to do with. So I’ll fall back on that if I ever have problems with Akismet again. I think I prefer Akismet though, as it’s quite straightforward and always catches spam for me.
I discovered a new knitting podcast last night! It’s a Purl, Man. ok, first, a knitting podcast by a guy. Very cool! It’s so cool to find a guy who’s a yarn addict, hehe. Second, I like his topics and it’s fun to hear him learning about podcasting in the early episodes. I’ve only listened to episodes 1 and 2 so far, but there was a portion where he messed up trying to play a clip, and he kept messing up, but he left it in! It was really funny
I already subscribed to him in iTunes. I can tell he’s going to be one of the good podcasts. oh, and I can’t believe he goes to four SnB groups!! I don’t even have one! I’m jealous. But it’s still great all the same–I wish I had people to knit with around here, girls or guys or whoever! Actually, I think the owner of my (one and only) LYS does have a get-together sometimes, but it’s not a formal, once-a-week type thing. Maybe I should look into it?
Back to It’s a Purl, Man–I was looking for episode 3 just now on his site, and I can’t find it. I guess I’ll continue with 4. There’s a photo of him here with the Yarn Harlot and he looks a lot like one of my brothers-in-law! Funny!

Congratulations!!
That is awesome! Hmmmm I think maybe you could just have a leetle yarn snack… not a whole dinner or lunch, but just a wee snack couldn’t hurt too much, right?
I’d heard of It’s a Purl, Man when it was advertised on Cast-On, but I’ve never given a listen. I will have to listen, now!
Congrats on the great grades! Do find out if your LYS has a get-together. Even if you decide not to go, it is always nice to know that one exists. And, you get to pat and squeeze all that lovely yarn in the shop
Thanks for the link to It’s a Purl, Man.
Check out the big brain on Tiffany! (Or Josephine, if you prefer!) Great job – break the yarn diet!
kc: a yarn snack–I love it! Perfect
Emma: thanks!
I went to my LYS today, but she was closed. I’ll have to check back!
trixieg: hehe, thanks! I think I will
