Okay, my eyes focused on the pictures before reading the text and I saw the neon socks and immediately said, "That's got to be a Stephen West pattern" and sure enough, reading the text confirmed it, haha. I love your socks - they turned out awesome!

I feel this post. My condolences.

OMG YOU WENT! I had a thought of going, but it was not to be. Even if I had *planned* to go, I probably would have backed out due to food disagreeing with me tonight, sigh. Glad you had fun! and @scalzi.com I'm glad you had a good turnout! I'll have to try to make it to the next signing here.

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I really like FFII myself. I haven't played the Pixel Remaster yet but look forward to it.

If my knees could take it: the Disney Dance Dance Revolution. Alas, I am an Old, and couldn't handle a DDR game these days. If your PS1 also came with ANY game, then I'd be playing Final Fantasy Tactics for the very first time. If it has to be a game I own: toss-up because FFVIII & FFIX

Ooh, yes, you can obviously see the difference. Good luck with your knitting! It's a fun hobby. The needles I learned on were even pointier! They were plastic straight needles from Bryspun that I got at a now closed local yarn store. Loved those needles!

and now that I pinned this: THANK YOU! I appreciate you curating this list. This post had the honor of being the first one I ever pinned.
