oh soooo crafty



Last weekend I went to a friends house for a craft night. It was oh so crafty and good, I liked it.
I made some piper cleaner animals. I also did some knitting, although knitting in May is a bit uninspiring; in fact the knitting made me a tad melancholy, too much thinking. I will admit I should have been more with it, I already have a project lined up for next craft night; c'est une surprise!!!
Everyone else was on the ball with the crafts. Edie made a jacket, it was incredible for 2 hours, a pair of jeans and an old sweater.

You might notice the bruise on Edie's arm, the night before she was hit by a car door while riding her bike. Luckily she wasn't too badly hurt, she's as tough as nails!!!
Liz made a CD cover that was beautiful as you can see. She also started to take appart a watch; she maked the most amazing things out of them. Liz is super crafty and creative!

Dorian, was into the needle point. I wasn't allowed to take a picture of her masterpiece until it was done, but I did get an action shot. I can say her needle point belongs in the subversive cross stitch book!
Later in the evening Kerry showed up and did a bit o' drawing.

All in all it was an wonderful evening, I think it refreshed us all and reminded us of how much doing something creative was so important.
Happy crafting!!!

Take me out to the ball game!!!

Yesterday I got an email from my friend Debbie complete with baseball tickets for the first repliers.......guess what, it pays to be checking your email while your class is working. It was Twoonie Tuesday, these were free, but I think we are going to become Twoonie Regulars!!! I forgot how fun watching a baseball game is, it has it's traditions and a bit of cheese: players songs, seeing yourself on the JUMBOTRON (maybe next time) and the seventh inning stretch (my favourite). First stop Shoppers to pick up some snackeroos:juicy Gummy Fruits, m&ms and Sour Wine Gums.....YUMMERS!!!!! We know how to pick the snacks!
Our seats were pretty good: with and without players
The company, as usual, was great!

The food was adequately greasy, good and $$$$$ (sadly no beer, "family section")
You may notice the a member of the 17 year old heckling crew beside Edie......they ROCKED!!!!! 'cause ya gotta heckle at a baseball game!
Edie did some knitting.......'cause ya gotta knit at a baseball game!! (I knew I forgot something...seriously, it's coming with next time)These guys kill me, I really want their job.In case it's unclear it says KKK. This made it to the JUMBOTRON and needless to say Edie and Debbie were offended, I assured them it had something to do with baseball, because the last time I saw a game, I saw the same thing and was equally offended. So Debbie texted Jonathan and found out the each K stands for a batter the pitcher has struck out, we got 6 this game. Later on something confusing happened....I texted Jonathan for some clarification, thank you it was helpful, but I blew my theory out the window.......there must be someone out there who can explain this to me:
Orioles Field, Jays to bat, 2 Out
Runner on 2nd and 3rd, batter not excellent average (.288) is purposely walked? Now the bases are loaded and another guy with a not so stellar average is up (.299). WHY DID THEY WALK THE FIRST GUY?!? It has been bugging me!!! It had a happy ending though we got 2 home off .299 and then another 2 off of Hinske (I think). I have to get up on my baseball talk to prepare for slo-pitch.....hahahaha!!!!
Anyway, I will end with a lovely picture, graciously taken by 17 year old heckler, of the GIRLS NIGHT AT THE GAME!
Next game May 9th again the A's!!!! I'm going to be on the JUMBOTRON baby!!!! (Having something painted on your bare chest seemed to work........it's good to have goals)

OH YEAH.......We WON!!!!!!! 7-3!!!! Go Jays Go!!!!

I am a dork

Earlier this evening I was reading my friends blog and she was recounting her week and I realized I'm a dork (don't worry this is not a new realization, more of a reaffirmation). On Thursday I went, as usual, to play Scrabble with some friends at a local bar. While playing Scrabble I notice a young woman who looked vaguely familiar; I was fairly sure she was either someone I went to school with or worked with at the pool, in Vancouver, but I couldn't place her. Through stealthy ease-dropping I found out her name and it seem right and made me more sure that I knew her. I became more and more confident that I had worked with her, if only for a summer. I continued to occasionally glance over hoping to catch her eye, possibly she'd recognize me and say hello. Although, I did get the feeling/remembered that she was not necessarily someone I would want to say hi to, so I wasn't going to be the one to recognize her. Despite this, I did take off my glasses (I didn't have them when I was working at the pool) to see if she would recognize me. The night drew to a close, the games ended and to my growing relief, she still had not said hello. We left the bar and made our way to our homes, I gave it maybe a second or two more thought and forgot about it, thankful I didn't have to talk to her. I remembered her as being some superior athletic type, the kind who clings to high school the way wet toilet paper clings to the ceiling of a high school washroom. I really didn't think anything of it until I was reading my friends blog this evening. During me friends recount of Thursday evening she mentioned that a well known Canadian actress, Sarah Polly, had been in the bar. Of course my first though was I wonder if that woman that I knew, Sarah, had been with Sarah Polly; it's a rather small bar. So not totally remembering what Miss Polly looks like (I know, I should know these things) I IMDB-ed her and guess what............that woman that I was vaguely creepily staring at all night was someone whom I had neither gone to high school with nor worked with, it was in fact the well known Canadian actress Sarah Polly.
I AM A DORK!!!!!!!
Please feel free to point and laugh at me the next time you see me.
