Wow. You would think that having the Tibetan character for "patience" tattooed on my arm would help to instill a bit in me, but alas no. I have been coveting the Lucy Bag pattern by Two Old Bags for a looong time now (think 2 years?) but have yet to drop the $7 on it because that seems like a lot to pay for one bag. So today I get a wild hair and decide, to hello with it, I am buying that sucker and I am starting on it NOW. Well, there are a couple of problems with that. First, no one has put it into PDF so I can't buy it and download it and start right in. I have to buy it, pay for shipping, and then WAIT. And if I am going to do that shouldn't I just buy special yarn to make it out of too? So what was going to be an impromptu Sunday project has turned into a big planned out thing that's nagging at me and taking up brainspace. I sometimes wonder if I obsess about knitting so much to avoid obsesing even more about all the heavy crap that goes on in my life. You know, obsess over whether to knit the Lucy Bag in Cascade 220 or Lamb's Pride rather than whether to go back to school now or wait? Whether to start looking into buying a house? Moving somewhere else? Dear God. I have opened a colossal can of worms...

Jeez Louise, Just when I thought you'd had such a busy Sunday that you didn't have time to call your mum, I find out you've spent the whole day in an obsessive state. Bet those worms are still out of the can!
