Cable, Leo and Le Tour

We gave in and got a cable subscription. It is just yummy. After 10 months of just public television it almost seems naughty to have so many channels. It reminds me of undergrad, probably because that was the first time I had cable and could watch whatever I wanted whenever and for however long. Now tv seems like much more of a luxury, but it is nice to have a little selection when I do want to watch something! And for everyone who says there is nothing on tv, whatever! Right now it feels like there is too much to watch, too many choices, which I like :) We're pretty much hooked to the Tour de France right now, and have a little Fantasy League going on. I was very bummed that Zabriskie took a tumble just before the end of the team time trial :(

All weekend I worked on Leo, and finally finished the front and started the first sleeve. I worked diligently during class this morning and have done about 8 inches on the sleeve. It will be so nice when it is finally done. I don't know if I will ever knit a sweater on size 3's again...Jered should know I really love him! (Good thing we're married, what a sweater curse that would be, all those stitches, all that time!)

I finished the front of Ginger last week, here she is and a closeup of the edging that I am still unhappy with (again, any suggestions?!?!)



Oh! And last week the iPod dock that Jered got me came in the mail, doesn't it look just swell? It beats having to plug it in and be afraid of dropping it on the floor all the time!



A bit more knitting...


And the stars of this show, Mr. Freud (replace the L in Floyd with an R, hardy har har)


and Jinx, aloof as ever (albeit much more affectionate lately!)
