Things that are not awesome:

-- People riding motorcycles who both insist on not wearing a helmet and not turning on their headlight at night. Great job, moron. I was half-tempted to stop suddenly in front of the shopping center where the cops hang out just to see how fucked you'd be after the accident.

-- Apparently being the only person in Northeastern Pennsylvania who knows that those dotted lines and gigantic STOPs painted on the grocery store parking lot mean something.

-- Having to explain twice in one night that sudoku doesn't involve math, has never involved math, will not suddenly decide to require math skills if you start attempting to do a puzzle, and is entirely a LOGIC puzzle. Seriously, annoying people at work. It could be numbers, letters, symbols, or different kinds of cheese in those boxes and it would STILL involve no math.

-- Working with someone who isn't really a mean sexist bigot but thinks it's hilaaaarious to act like one.

-- Forgetting your cell phone is in your purse and having to turn it into the bosses AGAIN. *sigh*

Things that are awesome:

-- Fifty bucks suddenly showing up in my mailbox from relatives for Christmas. ohthankgod

-- Getting the adorable non-cursing girl at work to read slash. Specifically, slash with handjobs and rimming. And having her request I bring in more tomorrow. Heeeee. Okay, you asked for it. *snickers*

You left out knitting/crocheting. Seriously. I think I have the afghan pattern around here somewhere even though it kinda scares me. I don't play soduko, but I'm tempted to try out that damn pattern.

ooooo! If you find it (and it's crochet - I don't have the coordination for knitting), I'd love to see the pattern.

I found this: Sudoku Knitting (http://obsessiondujour.typepad.com/obsessions/sudoku_knitting/index.html) Or try this one (http://pixelknits.blogspot.com/2006/04/sudoku-knitting.html)

You could adapt it to crochet by matching your square sizes to her dimensions. I won't totally geek out here by recommending things. I promise (although it is my job! *G*). I will give you this hint: Add 30 to 50% in yardage to any either link mentions (that's how much more crocheting eats up)

I think the actual pattern was in last month's issue of Vogue Knitting's Knit 1. I can't find my copy unfortunately.

Thanks for the links. Once my hands recover from all my last minute holiday crochet, I might have to try one. (the first link, in particular, appeals to my uber-geekiness). And, hey! Any excuse to go buy nifty yarns, right?
