My knitterly friends rock! I had a dreadful day at work and went to my usual knit group and they had gifts for me. I didn't take pictures so you'll just have to imagine the lovely sock project bag that Carmen made for me along with two skeins of Knit Picks Palette. Joanna and Johanna, satisfied my Koigu thirst by finding some lovely colors of one of my favorite yarns. They (along with Christine and Gwen) were all witnesses to my breakdown at seeing all the fiberly goodness.

Yes, I cried. Over yarn.

And afterward we went out for dinner and had a fun time. Oh and the crying wasn't my most embarrassing incident of the evening. I'll admit it here and now, I have pee anxiety. If I'm hanging out with you and in a public place, I can't go into a public restroom with you...because I won't be able to go. Sad, but true. One of my many quirks...but I'm used to it. It amuses Joanna to no end.

Nevertheless, I'm very happy to have such wonderful and generous friends. Especially since on Friday (my actual birthday) I'll be going to the school carnival with the boys.
