I'm really fed up with my body shape. I'm just finishing up with the Fairly Easy Fair Isle cardigan from SnB Nation, and it feels awful on me. I just about fits around my boobs, but won't bit around my belly at all. Normally it's the other way round, which isn't so bad.
I'm the biggest I've ever been and it makes me miserable.
Despite my love for Vox (and knitting) I haven't update for a while. Soon I shall start unveiling all my lovely plans, but for now I have a job. The job is filing. Simple and dull, but it pays. I have an interview for a more involved post on Thursday, but I doubt I'll get it.
I haven't had time to do much knitting, I've ripped out the start of my shrug/shawl thing twice already. I'm contemplating starting the dragon gauntlets, I may or may not have mentioned earlier. It makes me sad that I have no time for knitting anymore, and I know that I will probably stop altogether if I carry on in office work.
Office work was never the plan, but it seems to have happened, now I need to chose money and stability, or career satisfaction. That's if I get accepted on to the costume diploma, which I won't :)
Or so the say. Another thing you don't have to be posh for is Posh Yarns.
I bought some delightful Cecilia in "Deep Water" that arrived on Saturday (The expected date of dispatch was not until Monday so it was a nice surprise).
Of course winding it up into a ball has been a never ending, not at all enjoyable experience.
I'm nearly at the end but it is all ridiculously entangled. *sigh*
I really want to make these armwarmer type things. They are quite cool and I have some black DK in my stash. Come to think of it I have silver and green too, which might work better.
I have nothing to show you, but I wanted to make a knitting related post and express my desire for these armwarmers (and my love for vox, it is great).
Wow. I am impressed. Vox is amazing. It's so easy to use after blogger. A couple of clicks and you have a CD in your side bar. Another couple and, wham, a book. With actual pictures.
It feels, so far, better than Livejournal.
It must have flaws, right? I'm sure I'll find them out in due course. Everything at the beginning of a relationship seems perfect.
I really must go to bed before the relationship analogy gets out of hand.
I used to be itslikearuin but got fed up with Blogger's evil ways so moved to Vox. Vox and I seem a perfect fit right now, but don't all relationships start that way?
I can also be found here, at my personal journal, but most of the entries are friends-only (and disturbingly emo).
I will up date shortly with actual content, but for now I should probably sleep.
