LOL I've just finished an awesome Ravenclaw scarf (knitted funnily enough in Lion Brand MicroSpun) and am now crocheting a school spirit scarf in Lion Brand (GAH!!!) Fun Fur.

Very nifty. I highly recommend it if you're running two busy sites, like you are. :) One of those cool firefox plugins is a filezilla FTP program that works as a tab. Very nifty.

Firefox. Once a month, or so, I go to the Extensions page just to see if there's anything cool with which I can pimp out my browser. Right now, my favorite toy is the eQuake alert, which makes my browser window shake everytime there's an earthquake anywhere in the world. It drives my husband nuts, which I think is cute. He's such a minimalist. Oh, and the other thing is the JKN Email extension, where you can email a whole page to someone. And I hate crochet, too. I have all the hooks for picking up stitches and making edgings, but I try to avoid that whenever possible. I always feel bad if I put a crochet edging on something, because even if it looks fine, I'm still just faking it and it's probably all wrong, thereby cheapening my beautiful hand-knit object. It's kind of like, "Here's this beautiful thing, and I personally hot-glued some cat shit on it for decoration; you're welcome." I. Love. Firefox.
