You know that think about necessity being the mother of invention? That's wrong. Poverty is. And here's my proof--I created these functional little point protectors from the caps on the countless bottles of Nasacort I've been snorting all fucking summer. With a small wad of Fun-tak (represented by the little white ball in the photo) to keep everything in place, I've created cheap and environmentally-friendly knitting gadgets, although they probably have some of my DNA from snot residue, but I like to think it's just me, The Artiste, putting a bit of myself into my work.

So here's the deal. I'm still trying to escape from Omaha, but it seems that I can only get as far as Denver, for the time being. Yes, I realize that it takes me even further away from Montreal than I already am, but I'm only going there so I can do the groupie thing around Taylor, and perhaps convince him to run off with me to Lachine, where we will live happily ever after. Wish me luck.
More when I return, which hopefully will be Wednesday evening, but most likely will drag into Thursday morning, because air travel is laid out like that, these days...

now wait a minute, i thought omaha was your snowbird home. if that's the case, winter's already on it's way. does that mean you'll go home for a month, then come back here, or are you going to brave a montreal winter?
and those aren't ghetto, they're macgyver. go, girl!
Deawn, I see you've gotten into your "rasta" yarn already!
I miss you when you're not here. I hope you have a nice time in Denver.
I had a killer migraine yesterday, so I wasn't at SoP for sit and knit, but Miriam is going to phone me later and fill me in on stuff.
Hugs, girl!
'kay - first of all: I can't believe you're actually knitting SOCKS! with fairly small needles. Wow.
Then: have to agree with MLJ and say: hope to see you soon, that is exciting!
BTW, you're not the only one who missed the VT Sheep and Wool Fest this year...
I read somewhere a while ago that someone has turned the underwire from her bras that have gone bad into stitch holders.
Classic.
