About me

Gender Male
Location a far west suburb of Chicago, Illinois, United States
Introduction I've decided that I'm a process knitter. I love natural yarns and wooden needles. I only fix mistakes if they're easy fixes and I will never frog a complete project--even if I hate it. Knitting garments for females is fun, such a huge selection and interesting design elements, more so than male patterns. But, I rarely have an intended recipient. Sometimes, the only reason I try new projects is to conquer a certain skill. One of the few product-knitter traits I have is I prefer to make "useful" things, even though sometimes the end product ends up being UN-usable. I also love taking pictures of my knitting and yarn. I'm not sure where that fits in.
Interests photography, knitting, reading, swimming, guitar, caribou coffee, chaise lounges, chicago the city, coca-cola, flirting, laughing, naruto, orchids, spy groove, posh spice, photoshop, to name a few
Favorite Music cibo matto, rufus wainwright, christina aguilera
Favorite Books anything david sedaris, perks of being a wallflower, confederacy of dunces, kokology, the red book with the upside down poodle cutout, anything nicholas sparks (he makes me cry), sex drugs and cocoa puffs, memoirs of a geisha, game guides, anything oscar wilde

When you hesitate before hitting snooze on your alarm clock, are you being lazy?

no, the hesitation is me fighting the guilt of chosing to sleep in a few more minutes over doing whatever it is i set my alarm for. i guess actually hitting the snooze and going back to sleep is being lazy... hmmm.
