Knitting Olympics

Stephanie at the YarnHarlot.com has decided to host her version of the knitting olympics, and I want to join in--except I'm pretty sure it wouldn't take long for me to manifest some seriously irrational behavior, sobbing into a pile of ripped back yarn, calling up the publisher to rant over the clarity of pattern directions, and well, you get the idea.  The stress of busy season brings it out.  I want to take on the challenge and lay down some serious yarn, needle, pattern smackdown, but alas busy season is laying down its own smackdown on me.  I haven't worked on orphan project #1 (see June 2009 posts) in a week and am 2 chapters behind on my Pulitzer book, Age of Innocence (which has turned out not to totally suck like the movie did).  Unless I find another job, my best bet may be knitting a bathing suit for the Summer Olympics.  After all, I have a pattern for that.  :)
