Only 5 half-fingers to go and the Mermaid Gloves are done.

Thumb gusset is much neater the second time around.
And remember this, the Capelet Sweater? A snail's pace progress, but progress nonetheless. I had to frog back a few rows and thought I'd try it out while it was off the circulars. Pardon the shitty lighting and the wrinkled shirt underneath.

Ha! That looks like ass! This should have been finished a long time ago, as it's just mindless straight stockinette done in the round. I'll try to get it done before 2007.

So I caught my first episode of H3roes last night after hearing all sorts of buzz about it from friends and family. We were without cable tv while in Santa Fe so we missed all the premieres. So I'm watching this show and suddenly I sit up and scream, HEY! What are you doing there you?!
This dude. I know him. We graduated from the same university. From the same department. With the same degree. OK his degree is actually much beefier than mine but you get my gist. We come from the SAME PLACE.
And we're both ASIAN.
But I'm not on a hit show now am I.
How random is it to be a CGI programmer and an actor at the same time, and how annoying is it to be so successful in both? If you were nice and less greedy you'd pick just ONE THING to be amazing at and share your other talents amongst the rest of us normal folk. He'd probably be the most fabulous knitter ever if he gave that an afternoon's effort. Ugh! I hate him! What with all his walking around all day using all sides of his sickeningly gigantic enormous moist brain. You suck!
