sun and moon

well, twilight madness has come and gone. i did go see the movie and friday and...let's just say that it could have been better. it just wasn't what i was hoping for. there were some really good scenes and the scenery of the pacific northwest was gorgeous, but there was a lot of stuff missing that i feel could have made the characters and the story a lot stronger. and the sequel, new moon, we just green lit as well. i have mixed feelings about it, as it wasn't my favorite book of the series, but we'll see what happens. i still had a lot of fun going out with all of my friends and the anticipation was exciting. edward is also pretty easy on the eyes. that helps a lot.

the weather is finally getting a bit cooler here in southern california. it was a brisk and sunny 70 degrees today. i am going up to northern california this week for thanksgiving and i have high hopes that it will be cold up there. with thanksgiving coming that means i have to get started on my christmas knitting (why didn't i start this months ago?). there really aren't too many people i knit for, as most of the people i know don't appreciate handknits. but there are a few people i want to make things for. i just started a hat for my dad. it's habitat, by brooklyn tweed. i am only on the rib brim so it looks pretty boring right now. i'll take a picture when there's something to see.

well i am off to watch the 24: redemption movie now. it's been so long since 24 was last on. i wonder what jack bauer's been up to. hope everyone has a good turkey holiday!
