Last weekend, I went up to Québec City for some Carnival. It was cold. Fun, but cold. Most of my time was spent jumping up and down outside to warm up or drinking pints with friends. We were about 60 which was nice, tons of new friends to make :D Here's my favorite moment:
Some people are a little too intense for me. They got in their bathing suits and spent 15 minutes in teh snow. One group did it for charity which was cool, but seriously, who wants to play in the snow, while naked (almost) in temperatures of -40C (-40F). Anyhow...
On the knitting front, i'm 10 rows from the cowl of the Placed Cable Aran. I love LOVE knitting this sweater. THe yarn (Cascade Eco) is terribly scrumptious-rific and the pattern is mindless enough for me to knit it in the metro or while watching some tv. Check out what it looked like earlier this week(without proper lighting)...
Finally, here's a gratuitous kitty picture. Serge was not very happy about my leaving him for a couple of days...here's what I came home to...
We made up 10 minutes later (i.e. once I gave him cat treats...).
Happy knitting folks!

I hear ya on burn outs and breakdowns (wouldn't that be a cool name for a band?. I suffer from depression and whilst medication (Paxil, I love you, marry me) does help enormously and enables me to have a day to day mostly functional life, some times its not enough and one has a slump. Winter is especially prone to slumpy times because of the whole sunlight deficiency thing too. Double whammy eh?
I send sympathetic hugs to you for your slump. Love ya mean it!
Oh and the 3rd studio track on the EP was "If You Are Into It" or whatever that song Bret sings to Coco is.
Gods, I can't wait til pub night. I hate that I will need to behave since I drive..LOL
