Twas The Eve of St. Patrick's Day

and I should be in bed because I am the unfortunate soul that has to go to work tomorrow while my sister is on Spring Break. I am on Spring Break from college but not from work. I just have Good Friday off from work and that's it.

I am so close to finishing Sunshine's bag. I bought bobbins and thread for my sewing machine that Mommy gifted me when I left but I forgot to get the manual from her so that I would know how to thread it because I need to use it to finish up two little projects. I might end up begging A the co-worker to show me how. I haven't had to thread a sewing machine in ages.

I went a little loom crazy this weekend and made three kids hats and two infant/preemie hats. ALL OUT OF MY STASH YARN!!! Whoop! Whoop! I have a few odd balls of left over yarn that I decided I just needed to stop being lazy and whip them up into hats. I think they were leftover from some adult hats I made last year or something. Does this mean I can buy some more yarn this weekend?

Sis and I watched August Rush and Bridge to Terabithia this weekend. August Rush is awesome. I love all the lead actors and I wish I had a stylist that would mousse my curly hair every day so it would look like Keri Russell's. The music was fantastic too. Bridge to Terabithia is even more of a tear jerker than the book was. We had to read it in elementary school (like 5th grade?) and it ended up being an all time favorite of my sis and I. I love the chucks that Leslie wears in the movie. Between those chucks and the I love Chucks group on Ravelry, I am really itching to get a new pair of Chucks. It has been way too long since I have bought a pair.

So tomorrow is St. Patrick's Day. I am going to wear my special pink and green shamrock socks to work with my green and navy striped shirt and navy blue little sweater. It might just turn out to be a preppy day.

I feel all wound up and I am not sure why. Maybe it is because it is a short week and I get to have fun lots of fun this coming weekend. I have no clue really. I think I am stoked because since I am sticking to my almost-no pop diet, I allowed myself to order some chapstick (and three complementary samples) from Kiehl's, which I am seriously stoked about. Also, Mom sent us a box that is supposed to come on Tuesday and I am on Spring Break so I don't have to go to boring Auditing class.

Anyways, I hope everyone has a Happy St. Patrick's Day tomorrow! Don't spike your coffee with Bailey's until after 5pm! I'm just kidding...
