I never talk about knitting.....

You know, it occured to me that i never really write much about my knitting...or TV, for that matter..i just kind of blather on and on about my lawn mowers, and the birds in the yard. Does that mean i am losing my mind a little bit? Probably...but seriously, if you had my BFF lawnmower/tractor, and then also that total bitch of a lawnmower that belongs SOLELY to the husband, you would probably only write about that, too. but, you are probably not as pathetic as me...so.....
i am going to write about some knitting for a minute, and then ALSO about Battlestar Galactica, because omigawd, i love me some Galactica.

Currently on the needles are TWO things. I am knitting the husband a kick ass sweater from Tara Jon Mannings kick ass book "Men in Knits". I am doing the Garter Stitch Aran Pullover, on by 72 in the book. Honestly, if you do not have this book, go buy it. It kicks arse. In the book, she uses a light colored yarn. Well, i am married to a man who is kind of a 12 year old boy in the body of a ridiculously cute 35 year old. That means...he is messy as heckfire. I have witnessed him wiping his hands across the front of his shirt while we were in a restaurant eating. He did not even notice he was doing it. So....charcoal colored yarn for my man. I am using Dale of Norway "Freestyle", and let me tell you, this yarn is the GIZ. I lurve it. It feels nice, and it is WASHABLE.

Also on the needles is a sweater for moi. I am knitting Oat Couture's Celtic Cardigan. My aunt was wearing this sweater, knit in a chunky-ish brownish yarn when she came to visit me two years ago and i coveted it. I wish i had just picked a brownish yarn to knit it, but instead i picked Pea Soup Mix, from Berocco's Ultra Alpaca. It is just really....um, GREEN. I know, redheads are supposed to wear green..but you know what? Most of us do not really like green that much. Ask my nephew...he will roll his eyes at you, and probably even make a gag face. yeah, and side note....9 year old boys DO NOT like having their red hear pointed out by old ladies. Take note old ladies. you are SCARRING HIM for LIFE!

Ok....now on to some Battlestar Galactica. So, spoilers ahead. If you do not want to know what happened in the season finale...quit reading.
Last night, our heroes made it to EARF....only to find out that the earflings had done blown themselfs up. Poignant.
So NOW what is going to happen. I tell you what I want to happen...i want Starbuck and Apollo to GET IT ON. Dude...are they NOT the hottest couple in the universe??? Seriously producers, do not TEASE us with little kisses here and there....it is time for some more full-on Starbuck/Apollo action. And that is all i am going to say about that. I needs to go fix myself a Dirrrrty Martini. The end.
