1. Open Mouth 2. Insert Foot

So. I went to my sister's middle school band and chorus Christmas concert tonight. There were a couple of motives. First, to see my sister play, of course, because that's the kind of supportive sister I try to be. Ha. And second, because I needed my red sweater which was at home to wear to my handbell choir performance Saturday night. So, after the concert (have you been to a middle school concert? Middle schoolers are at such an awkward time in their lives. Have you ever noticed?) my family went to McDonald's (Donald's Place, as I used to call it when I was 3, apparently) and as we were leaving, I was like, "Oh, I need to get my sweater." My mom, trying to act like she forgot it, said something like 'your sweater?'. And I replied, "Umm, yeah, the whole reason I came." Oops. Sorry Sara. I love you! I apologized profusely. Actually, I think I said something like, "well, half the reason I came", which was also not the right thing to say. Honestly, I did go to the concert to see Sara; if I'd just wanted the sweater, I could have just went home and got it and saved that hour of my life. But I didn't. I did the sister thing. I don't think she's really mad. I don't think. Hey, her Christmas present which I bought today will more than make up for it; she wanted a Berry hoodie--those things are $45--ridiculous..

So, it's been a while since I've posted. It's been so busy. And finals start next week, Ahh! I took the blanket home last weekend and did another square. I don't have a picture cause I left all the stuff at home, knowing I would have no time to work on it for the next few weeks. Tomorrow night I am hoping to get some knitting time in, work on some of the dishcloth cotton under my bed, lol. Maybe watch a movie. Nice. Who gonna accuse me of not having a life? Huh? What'd ya call middle school band concerts and knitting in your dorm room on a Friday night?

By the way, how awesome was Gilmore Girls?? I about squealed all the way through. Loved it! The script seemed like it was more like the way it used to be, snappier than it has been. Theory on Lorelai and Christopher: their Paris marriage isn't legal in the U.S. There has to be hope for Luke, he's getting back to his old self! Mercy, I love that show.
