Knittin n Freakin


Linda and Nancy were just over, and we had the best time knitting (except for Nancy, who doesn't knit) and freaking to Kelly Peters Make It Happen, Tom Petty, and Sublime. First we would knit for a while, and then the uncontrollable impulse to dance would take over, and we would all leap up and start freaking. We did the straight freak, the cowboy freak, and I tried to remember the Prep but could only recall the brush-off.

Complete with a guest appearance by Jake, the household 3-year-old, who refused to breakdance, sadly. (He's quite good.)

Wonder what the neighbors thought.

In other news, Linda suggested that we blog together about books we are reading. What a great idea!!!!!! She doesn't want to moderate it though, and I am too lazy to run an additional blog, so I have invited her to post book stuff on this one; after all, she is an honorary hilltroll. So be looking forward to many fine book reviews, everyone!

Uh, what's with the chicken?

Well, they say that more people will read your blog entry if there is a picture. So I try to include a graphic of some sort, regardless of any connection it may have to the content of the entry. She is one of Mike & Maija's chickens, a genuine East Bay urban Oaktown hen. Lays lots of eggs. (They are delicious!)

Also, maybe next knitting night we can listen to a James Brown retrospective and do the Funky Chicken.
