It's a good thing I have a lot of needles

I have a wicked case of Startitis, which is a nice change from the wicked migraine I had for the past two days. I think it's gone, but you know it'll come back exactly at 12:01 this afternoon, after the doctor's office has closed.

Anyway, Startitis. Socks. I want to start lots and lots of socks. There isn't much on my WIP list that can be knit while engrossed in a TV show or movie, so I pulled out some Cherry Tree Hill and cast on for No Purl Monkeys last night. It was disappointing to discover that I had forgotten to log that particular skein in my stash inventory - every "forgotten" skein I add is a total blow to my stash self-confidence.

But don't think I gave up on the Fireside Jacket already. Oh no. I swatched this week and now I need to block the swatches and figure out how to make this thing fit me. I think it's going to be easier than I originally though, but the pattern doesn't have a schematic, so I'm not quite sure yet. I may have to draw my own schematic. That will not end well.
