"Shearest" Idiocy and Purest Delight!!!!!

Today I am Elated about: The pure delight of the Yarn Harlot & Weaving Works 31st Anniversary!!!! Standing in line at the YH book signing with the very entertaining Seattle Knit Chick!!! The commenters!!! The great advice from the commenters!!! Hubby being accepted to local community college for previously mentioned ceramics class! The Battle of the Network Reality Stars!!

Today I am not so Elated about: The "shear" idiocy of forgetting to take my camera to Yarn Harlot book signing!!!!! Laughing sooo hard and being sooo entertained by previously mentioned Yarn Harlot that both hubby and I screwed up our projects!! Local community college trying to charge us $800 for hubby's enrollment in previously previously mentioned beginning ceramics class!!!


This photo is from the Knitty website!! I had to find something to post because I forgot my camera last night, much to my dismay! My first event as a blogger and I was sans camera ... bad blogger ... bad! The book signing/anniversary was a whole lot of fun though! She was so entertaining that all I could successfully do was mess up row three of my repeat (that one always gets me). Hubby added some stitches, twisted some stitches and did some other things to stitches that were completely un-identifiable by anyone!! We spent our entire dinner fixing our projects and are now back on track! Since we are both new to knitting any problems tend to take quite a toll on both of us.

When we got home, we found an e-mail stating that hubby had been accepted to the local community college and that we could now register him for our beginning ceramics class. However, when I registered him this morning they wanted $800 for the class because he was not a citizen. We called and sent in some i.d. to say he was a resident and we hope it will be fixed. Otherwise, a beginning ceramics class is not worth $1100 for two people! That's ridiculous! We could buy an extra couple of cheap wheels and probably have Jennifer Lopez teach us personally! I don't know if she really has any ceramics knowledge, but at that price we could hire someone pretty famous! The only downfall would be having to spend all that time with J Lo. (I am sure she has her talents, but I am not her biggest fan lets just say)!

Alright lastly and most importantly I had more comments!!!!!! Wow, look... even six exclamations... that's a lot! I was really excited! I don't know how I got so lucky! All of the answers and advice were perfect! More on that a little bit later....

Oh yeah and The Battle of The Network Reality Stars will have to wait a little bit too. I am sure everyone who ever reads this will be crushed .... well mostly my mom, but she can wait a little bit. I am sure *wink*!

Have the very best day everyone!! (K-E)

It was great meeting you too! The line definitely seemed to go faster with a fellow knitting blogger to chat with! :)

Jennifer Lopez - ceramics teacher??? HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAAAA. Now THAT is something I'd like to see!

I'll keep my fingers crossed that the class fee issue works out for you.

Well... Ya know she is still just "Jenny from the Block!" Do you think she meant "Jenny from the 25lb block of clay"? Could be ... Could be ... and if her movie career does not live up to her dreams, she could be a ceramics teacher! No one would even hear her sing over the sound of the pottery wheels, an added bonus!

Have a great day! (K-E)

P.S. I hope all the J. Lo fans will forgive me, I am just teasing!
