Ouch! I've fallen off two wagons at the same time! Both knitting and blogging had yielded to low mojo and good weather, at least until this fab skirt from Knitty.com got me yearning for some yarning.
So, GO FOR IT! I think. I CAN TOTALLY DO THIS! I think. I've never knitted something so big, but dang. That's a nice skirt... or is it just the glorious shoes shining their fabulous light over the whole picture? And would the skirt look good on me? Can I try it on before I knit it?
Oh, and the yarn costs over $100. Yes, just the yarn. But, since God really likes to throw some heavy temptation my way, the yarn is on sale for 25% off.
There's something to be said for buying really good yarn, especially because I'm considering spending weeks, maybe months, with it wrapped around my fingers, and hopefully years of having a great looking work of art to wear. Or, I could go to Ross and buy a skirt for $7.99. Or else buy the yarn and then look for the shoes at Ross.
I am full of indecision. I can't decide if indecision is worse than guilt, and I feel bad about that. And which kind of guilt is worse? The kind where you spend $100 on yarn and end up with an oversized, butt-shaped potholder? Or the kind of guilt where you realize you have Fleetwood Mac, Burt Bacharach, Gordon Lightfoot, Grease AND Saturday Night Fever on your ipod?
And now I feel guilty about not tracking down matching videos like George did. I'm confused. I'm tired. Bring on the comfort music.

Thank you for playing. Sorry if it was exhausting. (I do think it was the yarn about the skirt that tired you out more than the music bit, though.)
Thanks for pushing me through my blogger's block!
