i just saw hulk hogan's butt...

seriously, i was watching vh1 and he was changing...i think he sun tans nude because his butt was not white!! ok...enough about not crochet related items!

i've been barred from buying new yarn, though i was oh so tempted today but only bought yarn that was necessary to finish projects (new ones that i've started in the mean time...) so let's list what i want and what i need to finish or start...i'm not sure if that sentence made sense...

1. afghan, i'm on an hiatus, i'm down to like 14 balls left to crochet...about 10 of each color so i'm having fun times...well not really...but i'm working on that!!

2. the black shrug that i never finished from the happy hooker of my friends...and i need to either buy the book or need to try and get my friend to send me the pattern :)

3. a shrug from AC Moore that i found online, it's really easy and i'm making good progress on it! I may actually finish something!

4. the shrug from crochetme.com that is taking forever to do since it's made of granny squares...boo at the granny squares right now!

5. the football coaster thingy for my boyfriend...it's awesome...i got it from the 1980s crochet today that my grandma gave me! i have the yarn i just needed the right needles (which i bought today...more explaination later...)

6. another shrug from online...really simple but i needed a bigger needle...

so i think that 6 projects is way too many for me and i really need to finish a few of these, hopefully i'll finish the afghan by the time that it gets cold so that i can use it!! Oh, so about my new needles...i went to the hobby lobby and got a bunch of new needles, i wanted them in aluminum but i only got 2 small ones instead in that...now i wanted large needles too...like size P!! so i broke down and got acrylic ones that are glittery (somewhat by choice!) so i have all the needles i need!! i was going to just buy a set, but i already have a couple and didn't want repeats..so it's all good now and i'm happy and can get down to business...i used to way back in the day have all the needles but somehow they got lost!!

and it's a beautiful day out! Also i'm using crochet as a distraction...i started this cleanse where i only eat fruits and veggies and these shakes and vitamin things so i get all the stuff my body needs! don't worry i do have dr. supervision! So don't worry but i'm kinda crabby because i don't get my chocolate! but i'm gonna go eat what i call "supper"

procrastination or lack of inspiration??

Ok, so here's the deal...sorry about the lack of update but it happens right? but i'm updating now so you should be happy!! (and by you, i mean sugarsticks because no one really reads this...) anywho...

i've been trying to crochet my little heart out but find the tv more entertaining, maybe i should turn it off, but maybe i'll do some tonite because there's really nothing too entertaining on! I should have ran today but eh, it happens...

i did crochet at lunch and got out about 1 1/2 squares in like 20 minutes so i think that was good. I started this bolero last night but i don't think i like it, i need a larger hook to make it better i think, maybe i should alter the pattern or something because it's just too tight, and no i'm not a big kid and using the right yarn! who uses the right yarn? honestly? come on, i know you dont 24/7, so lay off!

but i don't know if i'm too bored or uninterested or just tired by the time i get home to crochet or not! i should really get on all the stuff that i've started! soon i'm going to get the book that i'm missing to finish a couple of things and maybe i'll get a different one instead, i dont know yet! who knows really? i want to finish stuff but want the results NOW, not in like 4 hours...i really must not have the patience!! lol...maybe i should work on that? but anyway, i'm going to search for randomness on the internet!


toodles!

hopping on the bandwagon feels good

so i'm updating again, you should be proud! i bought no new yarn so it was a good weekend, i really need to get going on projects...i've worked a bit on the afghan project and started the shrug one...well one shrug, still have a few more to go!

i worked on more granny squares and it feels like this afghan may be the death of me...i started writing this a few days ago, but then my mom came and i got distracted for the past few days...but i did get some more squares made...i should really stop slacking, but i get bored so i feel like i have to have 80 different projects going on at the same time.

i found another project from crochetme.com and am going to attempt it! hopefully i'll be successful and hopefully i'll put up some pictures in the near future when i stop being lazy...but i should really get back to the crocheting and watching tv...and i should probably go run today, but i'm really tired...so i'm going to not and just do some pilates here tonite...any who, back to the needle (wow i sound like a druggie!! actually it's a hook :)

the sweet smells of blogging...

so i broke down and started my own crocheting/crafting blog...sometimes i'm more motivated than others to actually produce items..but because my friend started her knitting blog i just cant get enough and her being lazy...doesn't post every 10 minutes to keep up with my ADD. And though i have a myspace, i don't think they want to hear about all my crazy crocheting things....i am the crochetinator...the name was a randomness of life and i couldn't think of anything else...do you mind?


ok for the crochet talk!!

i have many a projects to do....and finish...i just haven't found the time to do them really. Like this afghan that i've been making since MAY...i am probably about 40% done with the granny squares but still have to do the edging on them all, i just got the yarn last week from knit picks. it's going to be like 6 different colors, 5 in squares and 1darker on all of them...i'm using the wool of the andes and making a pretty large one...so i should really start going on that again...


my grandma gave me a bunch of old yarn too and some really cool 80s crochet magazines and i want to make this cool football thing for david and then a monkey too :) and there's some other randomness that needs to go down....but for david's i have to finish before the end of football season because i didn't finish his scarf until...april...and it's not cold in april anymore! so i need to get going on that but somehow i am missing all but 2 of my crochet hooks, so i have to go get more :( but they're not expensive so it's all good!


and then i have to finish a bunch of shrugs, i have at least 3 that i have to make and want to do this other one that i found online that's really cool made out of these random granny squares so it's a lot of fun! but i have to keep on this or i won't do it..


oh and i have a real job that takes me away from crocheting, though i do enjoy doing it on my lunch breaks! and then i look like i'm 80! but hey, i enjoy it! luckily my second job allows me time to do things like crocheting all the time...and my brother is getting married at the end of september so i have to focus on looking great for the wedding...so that's my first blog, i hope you enjoy the randomness and hopefully i'll update more and more and eventually put pictures up!
