Repitition

I drank with my best friend last night. We watched True Blood and were hilariously inebriated. I sometimes wonder why we never do anything besides drink and watch things. Then I remember that its what we do, and that we fail at trying to do more productive things. I feel like that since I'm out of college, and living with my long-term boyfriend, I shouldn't be getting shit-faced at my friend's house once a week. I don't want to be an adult.

I have to line about a million felted bags for a charity auction tonight and tomorrow morning. I just want to drink and be lazy. However, I think people might want to pay me for it, which would be extremely helpful right now.

Day 2 as a college grad seems to be looking up, overall. My mother is still trying to convince me to "just become a lawyer like my uncle". To appease her I will take the LSATS (in addition to the GRES) and apply at William and Mary (Uncle's Alma Mater) and Indiana University (where I did my undergrad). I suppose if I apply enough places for different programs, I'll eventually figure out where I'm supposed to be. Or I'll just be in debt with a lot of degrees.

Projects: FELTED BAGS OMG!!!!!

On the Stove: Fried Green Tomatos, Tofurky Wraps, Guacamole.

The First Day

Well, this is it. My first day as an unemployed college grad. Technically, it's my 8th day, but I was on vacation last week and it just now set in.

What the Fuck am I going to do?

Knit, Sew, and Cook until I find a job!

Current Knitting Projects:
My mom's lace tank pattern in the new issue of Vogue knitting.
Abstract Cardigan From Alterknits
Rivendell socks


Current Sewing Projects:
Altering the neckline of a vintage dress
Lining 7.8 million felted bags for the charity auction
Lining a knitted tie
Other alterations (mainly for Sandy)


On the Stove:
Mushroom soup
Fake Steak Stir Fry



If I can just keep this up for the next year, maybe no one will make me find a job. By then I'll be in grad school, and it won't matter. That could totally work. Right?
