After your last comment, mom, I pulled out some Greenwood Fiberworks cotton sock yarn for you. Problem #1: I can only find one ball, and I think there are supposed to be two. Problem #2: I've started the socks with the same stitch count I used before with success, and they were too big. I don't know if the yarn was wound into a ball too tightly, for too long, or if it's because my tension is way different from before or because I started at the toe instead of the leg. Last night I ripped it out and tried again with four fewer stitches. I messed up (I think it was the newscaster's fault; she was reading off lottery numbers while I was counting), so I ripped it out again. I have nothing to show you. But I think you'll like "Fireflies" here. (Ignore the subject (suicide). It's just nice sounding.)
P.S. I graduated from college on Mother's day 10 years ago. Weird to think about.

Wow, that was 10 years ago. That's a little scary.
I just called my mom to wish her a happy 32nd Mother's Day (and she did actually become a mother on Mother's Day)...she kind of flinched at the number before realizing that I really am that old.
