I am going to write a book...................

A quick review before I move on with this weeks subject. Apparently Farmville has some connections with PETA because I received some very stern commments about my thoughts on farm animals and other assorted items on that very subject. I especially enjoyed the housewife/professional woman from Michigan who thinks I milk chickens and collect cow eggs. Although I admire her courage in writing I would have to say she wouldn't know the difference between a Johne Deere tractor and a Dear John letter if it came postage due.

So I was driving down the street here in Worthington, Ohio on Monday morning with my co-worker Chris. As we were sitting at a stoplight I noticed a bumper sticker on the car in front of me which read, "Knitters are knotty." At this point I mentioned to Chris that we needed to meet the two people in that car for obvious reasons, the first being they must be hell raisers and the second being they might know my mom. I know, I know you are asking yourself, "Why would they know my mom?" Well it stands to reason that people who knit or do thinks like that, usually know one another. Years ago my mom made an afghan for our couch so, as I said it stands to reason they might know one another. I sped up and attempted to pass them and wanted to ask them, "Hey, do you know a lady by the name of Betty from Gibsonburg, Ohio who made an orange, yellowish colored afghan for her green couch back in the 70's?" Unfortunately they turned right at the Library just as I was about to side-swipe an oncoming SUV.

Back to my point. Conversations like this need to be put into a book which I will title, "Conversations in a Car." Oh yeah and the other thing, maybe our little blog group should think about having a get together for all the people we know who knit and do things like that, we can call it "Afghan Fest."
