Today…
… We swam in the pool, lazed about and drank champagne from 12 to 9pm.
… I got a sunburn while sitting in the shade.
… I sat on a chair with a hornets nest in it and got stung on my ass.
… my mother-in-law asked to look at my butt, which I showed her without hesitation. I am not sure what that says about me but there it is.
… I finished my stripey aqua-melon socks (yes, finally Maya! hah!) Vesper sock yarn, in case you likey. I got it right before it became harder to get than a non-humid summer day in Boston.
ahh.. They feel so good in 88% humidity. (speaking of)
… I started some Jaywalkers. Really is something to that darn pattern. Freaking addictive. Dammit.
… I was told by a really drunk guy, “Keep up with that f*cking sock thing… that sock thing is f*cking awesome!” Thanks, Super Drunk Guy!
Ah… nothing like 4th of July weekend.

The socks, they are a masterpiece–finally!
I hope your butt heals quickly. Hornet stinks - yikes!

Argh. Hornet’s nest - hope your bum is ok. Glad you are not allergic, can you imagine the consequences?
Love those socks! Orange stripes!
I really like New England (and lobster rolls!). We haven’t really been experiencing summer here yet in Nova Scotia (similar weather to Maine I would think). Unrelenting pouring rain for 2 months is more like it. Its been sunny for the last several days…but more rain coming…sigh.

I don’t know if I could show my butt to anyone…other than Randy. Although, who knows in times of desperation.
Did you use a a pattern for the melon socks? I was looking for something simple like that for some yarns I’ve got.
And the Jaywalkers? I had to give up. Turns out they’re not good for people with wide feet like me.

The guys at work were appalled that Casey had such a high fever and you didn’t make him go to the doctor!
