Where Have I Been?

I've been told by a couple people that I need to update my blog. To those folks I say, "Dude! I work in the financial aid office at one of the largest universities in the United States and classes start in a month! And I leave for Seattle Wednesday night! I'm busy!"

I think my sister just wants me to post photos of how cute the Little Guy was shucking corn Friday night.Or show off what a nice auntie I am to help him climb up the slide.

Or maybe everyone has been waiting to see what I look like cheering on the Saint Paul Saints! I still don't know if they won this game. It went in to extra innings and D and I left. I've been so busy, I haven't even checked to see if they won.

I haven't been too busy to start on the socks for my step-mom. I needed something to work on while on the plane and driving around the Pacific Northwest, so I finally have something on the needles.
I leave right after work for Seattle. D will be bringing his laptop so I should be able to post on the road. I'll try to take fun touristy shots, perhaps of those guys that throw the fish around, and maybe D and I will re-enact some of the more dramatic moments from Real World - Seattle.

Well, maybe not.

We just missed each other! We got back from Seattle (well, actually we spent most of our time in northern Washington, but we started in Seattle!) yesterday. Enjoy your trip, and if you get a chance, I highly recommend Cultured Purls in Issaquah (just outside Seattle)--there's a link in my blog post about our visit.

Maybe you can 'bitch slap' your husband and really reenact 'Real World Seattle'--do you remember that priceless moment? How sad that I do...

I have entered the blogosphere!

Well, after thinking about starting a blog for several years now, I've finally done it. Bear with me as I get the hang of it. This will mostly be a knitting blog...which I guess means I'll need to knit a lot. No problem there. Why the name, "Knitting in Transit"? Because "Knitting on the Bus" was taken. I'm sure this is only being read by family and friends, and you all know I don't own a car and get around to and fro on the bus. Where I do a lot of knitting. Expect that I may also regale you with my tales of riding the bus. Well, I can't very well have a knitting blog without a picture of something I knit, so here you go. My latest FO...Dad's Sweater. More about this later.

Report from the RNC

In the end, I couldn't resist the pull of thousands of suited Republicans in St. Paul and D and I headed downtown last night to check things out. Actually, that's a lie. What compelled me down there was my support of St. Paul business. The Pioneer Press reported yesterday on how dismal business was for some of the restaurants and shops around the convention. I figured, "Well, if the Republicans won't eat there, I WILL!" After work we headed to Cosetta's . As you can see...definite lack of Republicans. They were all outside on the street. I have to say, in my Ravelry t-shirt and Chacos, I felt a little out of place. This is as close as we could get to the Excel Energy Center. It looks like the city is on lockdown. While we were just standing around, Sean Hannity passed right by us. I've never watched a day of Fox News in my life, so I would not have known this if someone nearby had not pointed him out. Then I snapped pictures like a good blogger. We then ...

Anti-Valentine's Day

I'm not wild about Valentine's Day. Why designate one day of the year to show people you love them? Why not just do that everyday? D and I have never really done anything special for Valentine's Day. I can't even remember if we saw each other last year on Valentine's Day! This year, I want to do have an Anti-Valentine's Day. I want to spend the day with D, but do things that are the opposite of what you might do on Valentine's Day. So far, the only thing I have come up with is watching a horror movie. Since neither of us like horror movies, we probably won't do that, but I am looking for things in that spirit. Please help me. Leave any ideas you might have in comments. If you leave an idea and we do that, you'll get a special treat. Probably chocolate. Or Gummy Bears if you prefer that sort of thing.
