Random Things

This is the sweater that I'm custom making...it will be the same, only in cotton with longer sleeves.
Well, I lost my Superbowl bet. It was to be expected, of course...and I had a bit of hope towards the end. Will this put an end to my sports betting career? Probably not...I always put a bet on the Kentucky Derby as well...I'm a total dork, though, I pick the horse with the coolest name.

In other news: I finished The 50 Minute Hour. It was really neat. In some ways psycology has come a long way since then, and in some ways it's very much the same. Each case was unique which made it that much more interesting.

I've started a new book now called Perv-A Love Story by Jerry Stahl. Though many might be put off by the title, a friend of mine recommended it to me and swore that it was great...And really, there's only one way to find out if he's right.

And lastly, in the crafting world, I had to restart my custom order sweater I was making. I thought I had the guage right, but I was a bit off, and it was turning out huge! I know since this one is made out of cotton it will shrink a bit, but I couldn't count on it shrinking from a large to a small, so I started over...I hate that, but I'd rather start over and have something good, than ship it too her and have her return it.

  2. Heehee, I ALWAYS bet on horses by the coolness factor of their names! That is the best way, I think :)

    That sweater is gorgeous. Sorry you had to start over. What a shame
