Wool & Words

One day and well over 300 frogged stitches later, I'm ready to face the Nymph Pi again. Yes, I had to rippit and I may have to rip some more. When I get home (I'm taking advantage of Kinko's and T-Mobile to do some non-dialup computing...I'm so spoiled!), I'm going to count the stitches on the needles now and see if what I fear is true. I think I've got one stitch too many somehow and will have to rip back two or three rows further. Of course, I may be able to figure out a way to correct the problem without ripping, but I don't want to jeopardize the integrity of the lace pattern...so I sense a trip to the frog pond may be forthcoming.

To top it all off, I'm just feeling basically snippy today. I'm disatisfied with the level of dissatisfaction that people seem to be feeling. Don't get me wrong--I can gripe with the best of 'em, and I enjoy a good gripe. But when I have a gripe overload (which I'm really feeling today) I get out of balance and then I take it out on the world. So perhaps this isn't the best time for A Visit to the Frog Pond. Maybe I'll just read a blog or two.
