UPDATE:
kadollan rocks the house and got me into the clues so I could nab the word file versions. ::hugs
kadollan::
I wanted to do the Mystery Shawl Along 1.
It's not happening in my world, though.
So I got the first clue from
kadollan at her house. Ok, great, yay, super, right?
It went duck-ily. I got all but a row done last night while watching the last bit of YuYu Hakusho's Dark Tournament.
Went online to get on the list and get the next clue(s) - the list is closed, locked, don't come back. Sigh. Got on the MSA 2 list instead. Asked that someone send the clues to MSA 1. Someone does. The message *doesn't* end up in my inbox, I find it on the groups list, and the list site, of course, strips off all attachments. So no clues.
Asked
kadollan to email me said clues.
Realize that I don't have Adobe PDF reader on my comp. Growl.
Try to download Adobe PDF reader.
Don't have enough disk space, and it won't let me install it to another drive it HAS TO BE C.
STUPIDFUCKINGCOMPUTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So I can't open the clues if I get them from
kadollan, anyway. ::headdesk::
Decide that I should just do MSA 2 and be done with it.
It needs 1200 yds of lace weight.
I don't *HAVE* 1200 yds. I have about 800 (if I'm lucky). Now, someone's blog mentioned they'd only used 600 by the time they were through... but I'm doing magic into this shawl and if I don't end up with enough yarn, it's gonna fubar the whole thing. So I'd kinda like to know I'm gonna have enough, and, and, ARGH!
On top of all of this, my Credit Card bill people called. I told them I'd sent as much as I could this morning, but it's not enough and they threatened to take me off the payment plan and hit me with lots of fuck-you fees. I told the lady, "sorry, I'm currently unemployed, it's what I had I could send", she pushed it, and I repeated said comment. I don't HAVE anymore I can send you people. I don't even know how we're gonna pay for my meds to keep me even slightly sane (not to mention the appointment with the MD that perscribes those meds. No job=no insurance.
korens_puppy was working at Waffle House, but got the stomach flu, so he may or may not be fired now. We're not sure, he's supposed to call and talk to the manager today. So he may be looking for a new job (again) too.
