really?????????

It's fucking snowing outside. Not like little "melts when it touches the ground" snow but rather some wet sloppy stuff. Noooooooooooooooooo! Bring back the sun! PLEASE!!!!!!

Diagnosis and more Rhinebeck photos

So I saw the doctor and well...I have bronchitis. Sucks I know, but the antibiotics are slowly kicking in and I'm not as congested as I was although I totally sound like a truck that won't start when I cough. I should be better within the week so you know...could be worse.

Montreal is in Madonna mode today. I'm not a HUGE fan of hers, but I would like to see one of her shows. I looked it up to see how much a ticket would set me back and there's nothing under 600$. Yes. I think it's unreasonable too.

On to more Rhinebeck pics...As most know, there were a lot of people there. Here are the one's I managed to capture.

Alison and Deawn looking hot!
AliP and the Yarn Harlot wearing matching scarves
Dayana wasn't cold with all that wool on and around her at the Ravelry party
AliP got friendly with a sheep
I got to meet Jillian Moreno fellow fat-embracer and designer extraordinaire!

Whew!! I also met some new peeps and saw some other familiar faces but sadly, I'm not really good at taking pictures of everything...mea culpa! LOL!

Ok next post, I'll show you what I got. For now, I'm going back to bed.

Rhinebeck pics pt.1

So here's a bit of a photo-rama of some of the great things that went down in Rhinebeck...
It was a mighty colorful drive down to Kingston
Who says that knitters don't know how to have a good time?
There were sheep being shorn...
a rabbit wearing fishnets...
and a kangaroo? Yes, a kangaroo.

There are more photos coming, don't worry. Some of them may be knitting related, others may be drinking related...I have to say that this past weekend was the first time in a while that I took my camera out and really, I don't know why I don't do it more often...OK I'm off for a power nap before going to work.

Rhinebeck photo delay...

because I'm sicker than I thought I was. This is no common cold (or I'm just a serious pussy). I didn't sleep last night because I was coughing and sneezing. I spent all day feeling like my head was full of cheese cloth. I didn't go to work (I had a 40C fever) and looking at yarn or a knitting project hurt.

Illness does not become me. There will be Rhinebeck photos tomorrow.

Much love

Rhinebeck...

was fucking great! But now I have a cold. Oh well. There are great pics coming :D

And I'm off

To Rhinebeck with some other Montreal bloggy people. Pictures will be posted upon return. I think. :D

stupid ankle...

Yesterday, I was at a friends wedding. It was great, we got smashed and I managed not to kill myself in the stairs with my heels. I wake up this morning, take the dog out for our last walk together, come home and wait for the rest of the family to get here (parents and brother). They get here and I go out to see them, help them bring everything in and then, I go to the back yard to get the dog. About 2 feet away from where I was going, I half-stepped on a broken piece of brick and fell...on my fucking ankle. It's now the size of an orange and I'm seriously frustrated. How can I not hurt myself while drunk and in heels no less and then totally kerplunk my ass on my ankle when wearing running shoes while walking and being 100% sober? I'm a klutz and I've been laughing at myself all afternoon. I've also been trying to convince myself that I shouldn't go to the clinic tomorrow...yeah considering the dull pain, I'm guessing that I'll be spending a few hours in a waiting room in the morning...blech!

I'll keep you people posted!
