Want to win this contest!

Sorry I haven't written lately, but I haven't really done anything that is blog worthy. Basically I go to work and then come home and sleep. I'm legally not allowed to write down any stories about my day, as long as my students are involved, and since every story involves students you will just have to take my word for it that my students are kind of hysterical!

Anyway, Knitpicks.com is running a "Win your Wish List" contest and I am desperate to win it!!!! So here I go following instructions:

If you are a knitter and you have never checked out www.knitpicks.com you have seriously been missing out. Their lines are lovely and affordable. They have worked to fill the void that was left in my heart when my favorite LYS closed two years ago. The shipping is fast and affordable and the site offers an online community,  tutorials, and have a podcast.

I have been utilising my library's affiliation with Listen NJ and have been downloading books so I can knit and "read" while I am on my daily break at work. Right now (Literally, right now) I am listening to Going Bovine by Libba Bray. I had been enjoying it, but the addition of a talking Scandinavian warrior garden gnome has pushed my joy to a new limit. The only problem is that I am so into the story that the reader isn't reading fast enough for me! I can't wait to see how it ends!!!
