I won!! I won!!

Last week on of my Knitting on Wednesday friends asked me if I wanted to go to upper campus and wander around the BizTech, which is an annual fair of sorts where groups from the University as well as outside vendors show what they have and give away lots of garbage. Plus there are snacks and little contests. At one of the booths they had a trivia challenge and if you answered the question correctly then you were eligible to enter a drawing, one of the prizes being a Lava Lamp. Oh baby ... lava lamp!!!! And I won it! Yesterday I want up to HR and picked up my trophy. It is now in my living room in a place of honor. [cue sitar music]

I am still a member of the Finish on the First Forum on Ravelry. At the end of last month I was too sick to even knit so there was no finishing. I see now that it's 5 days to the end of the month and so I must gird my loins to finish up my Isabella. She'll be a perfect top for Hawaii and all I need to do is finish sewing up the sides and add a few rows to the armholes. Easy. Although I am going to be busy this weekend I am going to put it at the top of my list.

Another thing I need to do is make Bonnie's hat. She mentioned it to me at our last gig and we're rehearsing tomorrow with our new 3rd girl singer so I'd better cast that sucker on tonight. It won't take long to make and I can bring it along to rehearsal so she can see I'm serious about doing it. I always end up with lots and lots of time to knit at rehearsal because Dwain calls them for 7, I arrive at 7 and everybody else swans in whenever they please - 7:30 ... 7:45. *sigh* Whatever.

I did indeed go dancing last night, after going out for sushi .. yummmm .... so there was no knitting. Tonight - I knit!! Want to get the lace part done on those sleeves so I can fly on down to the wrists.
