Chocolate for you.

Here's one and a half chocolate cherries for you. Chocolate cherry socks that is. God, I'm in love with this colorway.

Thank you, everyone, for your encouragement. I know I'll be alright, I've been through this before, but every now and then it hits you out of nowhere and there's nothing for it but to let it all out. Your comments helped a lot though. Thank you so much.

I Hate Feeling Like This

The Boy and I broke up about a month and a half ago. It's been tough, but I've been dealing with it fairly well if I do say so myself. In fact, I thought I was fine until this morning. After posting the picture of Michelle and La Squeeky, I decided to clear some space on my memory card and started deleting pictures. Then I came across some pictures on of when he and I were together. The set of pictures this came from actually. I knew that picture was on my blog, but since I knew it was there, I could ignore it. It was the surprize of seeing them all of a sudden that got to me. I ran into Michelle's cube to get her to delete them (because I coudn't bring myself to do it), but she was on the phone. So, I went back to my cube and quietly cried.

I hate feeling like this. I want it to stop. I want to it to get better. This sucks.

What Cuties.

Here's new auntie, Auntie Em, all blissed out from her big news and getting her baby fix from V's baby, La Squeeky. You can't tell because La Squeeky is all bundled up, but she's just beautiful. Aren't they adorable together?

My pirate name is:

Red Ethel Kidd

Passion is a big part of your life, which makes sense for a pirate. Even though you're not always the traditional swaggering gallant, your steadiness and planning make you a fine, reliable pirate. Arr!

Honestly, I like Jenni Two-Boots better, but this was really fun. Arr!

I Guess I'll Just Go Eat Worms

You've had those mornings, right? Nothing's going right, everything that goes wrong seems like it's specifically being done to upset you? My roommate getting up early, throwing off my morning routine and making me late, her cat puking outside my door (guess how i found that out), crazy people on the train, construction going on in my office... *scream*!!! So, yeah, I'm just going to sit in my cube and be very, very quiet and hope no one wants to interact with me. Maybe that way I won't chew someone's head off. Nobody loves me, everybody hates me, I guess I just go eat worms.

But I have some knitting for you! Look, a bit of a pirate dress! Isn't it cute? It's made of Lion Brand Tiffany, a soft and stretchy eyelash yarn. Those of you who are thinking Fun Fur, put that right out of your head. This isn't scratchy or wimpy like Fun Fur, soft and fluffy like an expensive teddy bear. I like it a lot and can't wait to finish it.
