merely talk

I didn't think it would ever happen. I actually finished my poncho mere minutes ago. That's right the first "real" knitting project I've ever undertaken is now done and even wearable. The fringe wasn't nearly as annoying as I thought it would be. It was actually kind of fun. I got to wrap yarn around a paperback to measure it and then cut it into fun little pieces and then I just carefully threaded them through the knitted part. It was really calming actually.

And I needed to be calm. There was an accident on the Second Narrows bridge today. Which I didn't find out about until I'd actually gotten onto the bridge so I was stuck in gridlock traffic for 45min. It took me longer to get over that bridge then it usually takes for me to get home. It was really frustrating. It didn't help that I was starving either. I think my favourite part was when I was stuck in one spot for about 10 min and right in front of me was a sign that said there was no stopping on the bridge. That was awesome.

Anyhoo. Anna and I are heading off to Les Mis tomorrow night. Should be totally and completely awesome. An added bonus will be annoying anyone unfortunate enough to be sitting near us by comparing the touring company to the London company we saw. I'm thinking London will be better if only because they've been putting Les Mis on in the same theater for 14 years or something. They pretty much have it down pat. The touring company doesn't have the benefit of knowing the stage as well...plus they're not British.
