Weekend update
April 7th, 2008
Sitting here at 8am, before showering for work, I’m already missing the weekend. How can I cram more fun into 2 days than I do all week? If only they all could be this much fun!
Since I have to run and get ready, I’ll try to make this brief:
- Knitting chez WonderMike morphed into a surprise pre-birthday celebration! Thank you, Mike, KnitSonya, SpeedyNeedleFreeman, Knit Ya Ya!, Kim-Chi Crafts and PuNk rAwK pUrL. You guys are too sweet!
- Courtesy of the Netflix, I finally saw RIZE, a glimpse into the LA crump and clown dance scene, as filmed by photographer David La Chapelle (NSFW: artistic nudity).
- And, 12 years after moving to the Bay Area, at long last I went to the Alameda Point Antiques and Collectibles Faire. Deadslow photographed Tammy fingering the needles, while Carrie scoured the crochet hooks and I leafed through a 1950s Columbia Men’s Book of patterns.
The only thing to look forward to this week at work is its brevity. Only four days, if I take Friday off.
This time next week? I’ll be flying through the air to Seattle for BMFA sock knitting camp.

I loved Rize! And I finally saw “Planet B-Boy” which I think is a perfect double-bill, if you’re asking.
How jealous am I that you’re going to SOCK CAMP?!!!!

have fun at sock camp! Cookie mentioned at Boba this past week that she’ll be there too, and Nathania from Purlescence too. It’ll be like old home week for you.
