Cast off, cast on

I think I reached an all-time anti-social low tonight when I zoned out at a work party and started thinking of what I could be knitting at home. In my defense, they started talking about a lot of technical educational teacher issues and I just did not follow. Once my thoughts turned to how much (or rather how little) I had had to drink and the time, I realized that if I headed home soon I could still squeeze in some knitting before bed. It's sick! But I did finally make it home in time to post this and still knit on my sock before bed. One good thing about simple ribbed socks? Easy to knit even if you've had a fair amount of sake.

Tomorrow I have another office New Year party that starts at 8 am--it's a bus trip to the Sea of Japan to eat crab and get wasted, basically. Hopefully I can hold off the drinking til lunchtime, but I don't think there's any chance I'll get to knit on the bus. Have to get my fill tonight!

I seriously think about that often. Especially when I'm close to finishing something..my mind wanders to how seaming and binding off! Lame lame lame. But also, cool. at least in the knitblog world. :)

You're developing a one track mind. Those socks are looking great, though! Love, love, love Trekking.

Well, at least there's no caffeine in beer, right?

mmm the yarn is so lovely! have fun getting wasted tomorrow!

O I am loving that yarn. Is it Trekking as one commenter said? I want that yarn!!!

holy buttloads of work drinking crazy lady. :) at least you're getting some knitting in! :)

Ha....I guess we all have to deal with the anti-social vibe huh?

Let's face it, some social events are just a lot less fun than knitting.I'd rather knit than go to work functions any day!

Keep up the great work on your blog. Best wishes WaltDe
