sweet virginian

I have returned from the land of seashore frolicking to muggy, buggy Minnesota. The drive home was rather grueling, each of the two days taking 12-13 hours. It was Chicago that really did me in. We were stopped in bumper-to-bumper for several hours. There was some construction, but no road blocks or anything that would actually impede driving... except: Thumper III. What is this amazing device, you ask, that has the power to captivate the imagination and bring normally quite speedy drivers to a screeching halt? Well, I'll tell you. It is a large apparatus with a rabbit painted on the side that bangs over and over again on the pavement. I am sure that it is a wondrously labor-saving device. However, the only thing stopping traffic for fucking hours at a time were goddamned minivans full of kids (and who knows who else?) slowing down to crane their necks at the fucking Thumper III. But that is all over now. I can resume being a human being.

We got to use my father's digital camera. It was disorienting, since I am an SLR fan. I've never really gotten used to the parallax thing with viewfinders that don't line up and looking at some weird little screen instead of what I am photographing is even worse. Guess I'll have to get work on it. We didn't actually take very many pictures. I made sure to get a couple of my halter and Cold Shoulder. I am working on another CS. I like the pattern, but my red one came out a bit bigger than expected. The underarm bagginess doesn't show too much, since I decreased the hell out of the neckline when making the ribbing. Also pictured with CS is my nifty little skirt! Came out pretty swell for a first project. I am going to start the next one tonite. Got some nice hotrod flame fabric and something that reminds me of occult mysticism while in VA for additional variations.

This weather is lethargy inducing. I am going to have to strip down to me skivvies and knit while watching video games. Then, ice cream.

Why can't I live at the beach instead of a tiny oasis in the middle of vast, vast nothingness? Goddamn you, Midwest.

Also, we saw Batman Begins today and I would just like to reaffirm that Christian Bale is the hottest. (next to J, of course) Katie Holmes wasn't quite as dopey as I expected. That's about all I can say about her. There were lots of shots of her hard nipples, but I suppose mine would be the same in proximity to such dark, seething sexual energy. Also, cheekbones.
