Knitting Hurts

Never mind the occasional back and neck ache, but I did the Horrific Thing on Tuesday night and stepped on a double-pointed needle that was sticking out of a ball of yarn. It went about a quarter of an inch into my foot, but thankfully in the bit just below the toes where I have hard skin. It still hurt like #@%& though. I now have a hole in my foot that's 3.25 mm (that's a US size 3) in diameter. Not a happy bunny. I also got rained on all afternoon when I was in Leeds, and I forgot my bank card even though the main reason I went to town was to sort out bank stuff.

On the plus side though - it looks like I'll be able to change my flight ticket back to India from October to any time up to April next year, work experience with the library is looking more and more likely now that my details have been passed on to yet another person, and I'm going to Durham this weekend. Also (although this is going to make me look stupid), the application form for a job in York that I was so worried about is actually due in next Wednesday rather than tomorrow. Ahem.

Fun things I've been looking at today:
Subversive Cross-Stitch - definitely my next branching out into another craft.
Fibre-Lover Name Generator (stolen from Leeds Knitterati, whom I will go to meet on Tuesday) - and that's *Miss* Princess Stitches All Night to you!

But back to the application form that does actually have to be in tomorrow . . .
