Oh Inga...

Oh Inga, the saga you have now gone through. I actually finished my inga hat a few weeks ago. I love the pattern, and even thought I kept reading on Ravelry about how it was too big and how you should shave a few rows off the bottom, I kept right on knitting. 

As you can see, it is rather large, so I decided to take matters into my 

own hands. 

I took Inga and shoved her in the dryer on Low. I checked on her every 10 minutes to see how she was progressing. And by a miracle of the Gods, it came out to be a normal size. Ok, I say normal size as a loose term. She is a little tight now, not so tight that you can't get it on, but tight enough that t

he hat keeps riding up when you have it on. Therefore Inga

 may be destined for the Gift Pile. Which has gotten a little larger lately. Of course, no one ever regretted being totally prepared with tons and tons of beautifully hand knit gifts for the Holidays.

In other news,

 I was driving home from work yesterday I passed this car on Interurban Parkway. Now I am no expert on Washington State Driving laws, since I am still have an Alaska  Drivers License ( At least for another 9 days, then it will expire and I will actually have to get a Washington one. Which makes J happy since i am out of lazy excuses for not changing my last name), but I am pretty sure that your back window should be unobstructed with issues of the Seattle Times. But what do I know? Yesterday I also had a woman come up to me at work to inform me that her son had made "a rather large mess" in the bathroom and that I "needed to take care of it". And then the bitch walked out the door. I was in shock. First of all, if my kid made a mess somewhere, I would clean it up, I wouldn't go and tell an employee. And secondly, I have a fucking Master's Degree!!!! Yes, I realize that my degree doesn't make me above anyone else, but every time something happens at my job that pisses me off, I want to run through the halls screaming " I have the same degree as the department director and I am more qualified to run this whole place than the CEO!!!!" Ugh, at least all of this just gives me the motivation to continue my job hunt.
