Tivoli done, but no pictures
I finished and blocked Tivoli yesterday, but no pictures today… I got up too darn early this morning, and completely forgot to check and see if it was dry before I left for work. I’ll have to post pictures and my project summary for Tivoli when I go home later this week. I’m very happy with the way it turned out.
Even though I am dying to start a new project, I’m going to finish the baby blanket that I started a while ago. The friend I was knitting it for had her baby yesterday, so I’m a bit behind schedule on the gift. Better get busy on that!
My commute this morning was hellish (nothing new there), and I have to rant briefly (or not so briefly) about crazy bad drivers. What is up with people who insist on multitasking while driving? This morning I spent nearly 30 minutes in heavy traffic (10-55 MPH, bumper to bumper in 5 lanes) behind a woman who was applying her makeup (all of it - foundation, powder, blush, eyeshadow/liner, eyelash curling (!!!), mascara, etc) and fixing her hair, while looking into a rearview mirror that was adjusted so that she could see herself (nevermind about needing to see traffic around you!). It wasn’t like we were just sitting on the road stopped either - traffic was moving, albeit slowly at times. I don’t get it. Clearly this woman has never taken a physics class, or she would realize that her makeup tool of choice would end up in her eyeball or another equally undesirable place if she were to, say, rear-end someone!
OK, end of rant. Whew. Just had to get that off my chest. Tell me - what is the craziest thing you’ve seen someone doing while driving? I once saw a man driving down the expressway while eating from a chinese takout box with chopsticks!
