Oh boy, another meme....
It's got a button and everything!
I am not much into them. Only if they are interesting. This one is interesting. I found this meme via Scout, via Jen La. It’s a keeper. I don’t think you have to be tagged for it. I wasn’t. It took me forever to fill this out so you will just have to read it now.
Rules:
-Your finds must come from knit blogs.
-You may not use a blog for more than one item-all items must come from different sources.
-Finds can come from current entries or archives.
-You must post your answers with the title of the blogs they were found on and a link to the blog/item (permalinks where appropriate) on your blog. If no permalink is available, give us the post date.
-Do not steal anyone’s bandwidth-which means you should not hotlink pictures.
-You need to comment and let us know when you have completed this meme.
1. A blog which you think people have not discovered.
I could be wrong here, people may have discovered her, but if not I just love: Julie’s blog. I mean she actually finished the over the knee socks from Hand Knit Holiday’s!
2. A blog whose author lives close to you physically. Just get as close as you can, it’s all relative.
Hmmmm……..I am meeting new bloggers that live near me a lot lately…..It’s got to be Mia
3. An unusual or weird animal picture.
Oh hands down Stitchy McYarnpants’s entry from March 2005. You will have to scroll down a bit. It is the entry where she puts her cat in the dye pot. He is blue.
4. An entry that made you laugh and got you strange looks from family or co-workers.
Once again Ms. Stitchy McYarnpants’s really made the soda come out my nose. If you scroll down to the March 27th 2005 entry you will see her cat with packing peanuts stuck to it’s backside. I actually called co-workers over so they could all laugh too! Priceless.
5. An idea you wish you’d thought of.
Oh that’s easy. the famous jaywalker socks by Grumperina. Now, I coulda done that! Sigh…… but she thought it up first…..
6. Something you’d like to knit.
Now this is hard. Why? Because I want to knit everything! But what the hell, I will just throw one out there. How about this?
7. A picture of something you consider beautiful.
Anything and everything that Sweet Georgia touches is beautiful. Could she just once have an ugly picture up there? Huh? Could she? Would it kill her?
8. A blog whose author you’d like to one day meet in person
I want to meet Kris and Audrey very badly. I also want to meet Marie, Anna, Lolly, Karma....All the girls in Australia, Jeesh, this is hard! I want to meet all of you who have commented!
9. A blog of someone you have already met in person.
Now this is easy. I have met: Missa, Meg, Toni. Remember the tv show? Will it ever be on girls? Okay and I have also met Mia, Erin, Rachel. Did I leave anyone out?

Whoa.. you must be feeling LOTS better- Yay! I don't know if I can do this meme though.. I'm up to my armpits in sock yarn and roving... all of a sudden it's all fiber, all the time. I think it's calming to stay busy, so I'm taking advantage of this "second wind".. and don't you think for one second I've forgotten about the Grafton Fibers.. I'll be talkin' to ya soon *grin*

I don't do those meme's either but this one is interesting. Maybe I'll do it too.

So, I'm a big 'ol nerd and I just found your site b/c I was doing a Google image search for a yarn or knitting pic to set as my desktop background. I clicked on the couch and as I was reading your list, I thought, "Ohmigod! She could be me!" Except that I was born in 1972 and I'm single and I've never seen any of the bands you've listed and I'm a Pisces and I DO like to clean the bathroom, but the swearing thing and a lot of the other things you listed really made my eyes go wide and made me giggle some. But the point is that even though this has nothing to do with what you've posted today, you seem like a person I'd want to be 'net friends with and I couldn't find a way to email you so I'm posting it to your comments. If you think this is just too creepy, that's okay, too. I'm not a stalker. But I AM laughing my ass off at the fact that I'm even going to post this. Oh, and my hair is straight (alas). But The Rolling Stones definitely rock. And I don't always talk (or type) like a spaz.
