The new kitty I'm getting as soon as I get back from the cruise
The cruise
The new Twilight movie (yes, I know)
The line-up of summer movies at my local drive-in theater
Holes at my local theater
Weekly picnics at my favorite, free, Spray Park
School is almost out. Summer is almost here.

The Slithy Toves...
Check these out:
'Twas Brillig. Right?
I've been in negotiations with the artist, who is a friend and just happens to need something knitted by October (alas it's not a hookah).
Now that my pair of shoes is safely in her to do list, I feel it's okay to broadcast her Etsy site to the rest of the world.
Gyre and gimble on over to Mamagems Etsy store.
Don't step on the mome raths.

Swimsuit Shopping
Well, despite my being in the gym 6+ days/week, ellipticizing 15-20 miles, yoga 2-3 hours, and lifting weights 3 times/week, I have gained 3 pounds.
But I have lots of energy, better posture and can see and feel results. Especially notable is the inch I lost around my neck.
Be sure to compliment me on how skinny my neck looks.
The same event that is motivating me to spend my knitting and blogging time at the gym--a cruise in June--is the same event that drove me to the mall last weekend, to buy a swimsuit.
I love Eddie Bauer. Scratch that, I love Eddie Bauer, but I really love their outlet store.
I found a $135 swimsuit (brown) for $29.99. It's a miracle suit which advertizes looking ten pounds thinner in ten seconds. The work is actually done while putting on the suit (10 seconds? Ha!) but it enhances myneck bust (which has lost 1/2 an inch) and slims my torso (no measurable change).
I also decided to try on a swim skirt. I am not a skirt wearer. Skirts are as pointless to me as dress socks are to my children. But all these cute athletic skirts have been living in my head (thanks to a certain VW who gave me some trendy wardrobe suggestions) and I decided I needed to try one on so I could veto it with authority.
I came home with this one. It's pink and it's a skirt and I can't explain it but I liked it. And it was only $19.99.
I also got a top sort of like this one to go with it. $75 marked down to $19.99. And it's green. I heart green.
Yes, askinny necked, flat chested, overweightwoman can enjoy swimsuit shopping.
Thank you, Eddie Bauer Outlet.
