In which Friday totally kicked ass, dudes.

Yesterday my mom bought me four knitting patterns from Fiber Trends (including this one omg how cute is that?!). This makes me very, very happy. (It also means I’ll be knitting felted plush toys for the next five fuckin’ years, but there are worse things!)

If that weren’t good enough, in the afternoon we went to some nearby town in Colorado so my mom could do a little shopping. During the drive, I finished knitting the first of a pair of what will soon be very cool felted clogs. (Yay!) Then, after visiting a[n extraordinarily ugly] media store called Hastings and making a quick stop at a super K-Mart, we went out for Mexican food. And my mom, who doesn’t really like food, bravely ordered Dungeness crab enchiladas… and was surprised to learn that she liked them enough to actually eat them! (My stepDoug and I cleaned our plates, of course.)

And to make it all even better, while we were out wandering around I received two calls from ISPs I’ve applied to! I have an interview next Friday with Blue Mountain Internet, and will probably have another interview with Pocket iNet soon too. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!

That night, we watched Branaugh’s Hamlet – all five hours of it – and had dessert for dinner.

Naturally, today I am leaving for Washington state. I may or not blog tonight, depending on what sort of motel I land in, but I’ll Twitter from my cell phone so you’ll know when I get totally lost in Utah.
