Good Bye, good luck, and new beginnings are ahead of us now.

Today I finished my first sweater for myself! It's a Hardcore Cardigan by Ryan Marnell. It's really cool! I have a link to the pattern on knitty.com. I found it when I was looking for a real nerdy cardigan pattern, you know like the ones they used to wear in like the 50's. So them I found this pattern and i though it was extremely cool and that I had to knit it because, "Cool Boys Knit."! So be sure to check it out!

P.S. I'm wearing it right now, by the way.
Have you ever broken a bone? If not, what's the worst injury you've sustained?
Yes I have broken a bone, actually two, thanks to the turtles at the X-dojo. I broke my left hand, thanks kid with no control, and my right thumb, Thanks Wes.
The funny thing was that when I broke my thumb when the doctor (military) took the x-rays than they (the health clinic) said that they where not sure weather or not it was broken so they said to come back in three months and then they would take a new x-ray to see if there was any bone build up, and then they would know weather or not it was or wasn't broken. Then for an other injury my physical therapist was looking through my x-rays to find the one of my back when he saw the thumb x-ray.
he said, "Oh, it looks like you broke your finger," then I said.
"Yah my left little finger," then he looked confused and said,
"No it looks like your thumb."
Okay only in military heath care will the radiologists say they don't know and the physical therapist who was treating an entirely different thing just glance at it and know it was broken! (it actually was broken)
The three things you should never sell your soul to: Satin, The Government, and Disney.
