Ever the Liar

Dear Readers, if ever you learn anything from me, let it be this: I am the biggest accidental liar in the world. There are several people that I know who are accidental liars, and I am bigger and better at it than they are, so I can only assume that I am the biggest one of all. In case you are not familiar with accidental liars, they can be defined as follows:

accidental liar - (n.) - one who says they will do something and then, due to uncontrollable forces, is forced to do otherwise, thereby not accomplishing what they set out to do. Other characteristics usually include procrastination, disorganization, and general scatter-brained qualities.

I can only offer the following excuses for my shameful behavior:
  1. My grandmother came to town from Georgia.
  2. I am enlisting in the Army Reserves and this takes up a surprising amount of time.
  3. College still goes full force (but I am done forever as of this December. Hoorah!)
  4. Work still goes full force (up until January. Wahaha!)
  5. I can't seem to find time to knit.
  6. Nor can I find my digital camera.
  7. Nor can I figure out how to post pictures on blogger, even if I knew where my *@#$ing camera was.

These excuses are all rather pitiful and negligble. My humblest apologies. Instead of knitting here at work, I am reading other people's blogs and fawning over yarn that I really shouldn't be even looking at, considering that I have a sweater on the needles and enough sock yarn for 17 pairs of socks. And only until January to knit as much as possible before leaving for a year and a half.

Oh God. Will I be able to knit at AIT? Basic is out of the question, I think. ACK! Will I even be able to blog?

Maybe I can find someone that I can send letters and pictures of possible knitting from AIT and they will post it for me? Jeebus. This is rather devestating... I hadn't considered the not-knitting aspect. I will surely lose my mind.

Since I have no knitting, I should probably offer a distraction. Starbucks has their Gingerbread Latte back. Which owns my life. I even bought a new mug to celebrate. Pictures to come. I mean it!

With Love,

Elle
