Books, knitting, and gaming.

Three updates on things. On the gaming side of life, almost done with Fallout 3 (total rock) it's a good game. Assassins Creed 2 is coming out soon, *jumps* I'm getting the Master Assassin's version, and I'll be sure to post pictures. and I'm also playing Guild Wars again. Always fun.
Knitting, *sigh* I'd like to say that I'd made a huge amount of progress on Muir, but that would be lying. I haven't touched that project in a week. I've been focusing on my hat pattern and working on branching out. And since I need to finish off a few Christmas knitting gifts i have a feeling that Muir is going to get pushed back even more.
And last, but not least i have a book recommendation. Read The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss, it's amazing. It's the first book of a trilogy, second book isn't out yet. But it's worth waiting for, this book is amazing. Pat is an amazing amazing writer. It's been a long time since I've had a new book grab me and not let me go. And this is one of them, the only reason I haven't finished the book yet is because I don't WANT it to end. i don't want to stop reading the story of the Kvothe. It's a book that will stay on my shelves for a long time to come.

Rhinebeck, Muir, and work

Lots of fun things recently. First of all, I landed myself a promotion at work. Always a good things, unfortunately it means I get to be on the phones now, but oh well right? Better hours and better pay, mean more time to knit and more money to buy yarn.
Also headed to the NYS Sheep and Wool Festival, had a blast. Went with Amanda, met up with Sam and a few of her friends. Lots of good food, and LOTS of yarn. But it was far to busy and crowded for me to get a good look at anything, so i think next year I'll go later in the day, might not have as good a selection, but I can't deal with all those people. Granted it meant I spent less many than i had planned on, which is always a good thing. But still! i was hoping to grab a sock kit or two, as well. I still made out good, I found a huge hank of this beautiful teal lace yarn for 30 dollars. I officialy <3 Maple hill farms. 100% merino wool, 2500 yards of the stuff. Spent all night at my dad's house makeing use of my step-mom's computer to find the best pattern I could. Decided on Muir from knittying, don't remember which season. i'm hoping the color changes will show up well. hopefully i'll be able to post some pictures either later today or tomorrow.
Well I'm off for now. Back to work, back to the phones and the lovely world of pharmacists and doctors.
salute! *raises tea mug*

omg, I'm back!

I'm back, I think. maybe. who knows?
i'm at work, *shusssh* don't tell on me. listening to The Last Hero by Terry Pratchett and wishing I was home knitting instead. this post probably won't be long, but *shrug* a short post is better than no post! hopefully I can start getting involved with things again, like forums and things. and yea we'll see XD back to work I suppose!
