My Inner Geek

Surprisingly, getting in touch with my inner geek has not been a difficult process for me. In fact the older I get, the easier it is to for me to fully inhabit my inner dork dimension. Why is this the case? Well, now that I'm older and have established myself in the world of the cube, I've got cash-flow. And what does a dork do with pockets full of duckets? Buy geek-friendly items such as this, this, this (yes, I own all of these...) and this, amuse oneself with geek-friendly activities such as this (no, I haven't partaken this activity...yet) and travel to various geek meccas about the globe such as this.

So yeah, time to get up close and personal with my inner hobbit as can only be achieved by physically transporting oneself to Middle Earth....um, I mean New Zealand.

Yes, NEW ZEALAND! Wooo Hooo!














Although, my inner geek is going to have to fight hard for sight-seeing venues because geek girl is not alone on this trip. Nope. She'll be accompanied by Empress Epicurean who loves wine, food and well, life's lavish luxuries. In fact, Empress Epicurean ordered her knave, I mean kindly requested her husband, to seek accommodations upon this small landmass, otherwise known as Island of Wine...

Hmmm, 29 vineyards dotting the landscape makes for a very hosed hobbit-tess as well as a sated Empress. Nonetheless, in between imbibes I will be...

...wielding needles and hook...

...practicing my Elvish...

...seeking out fiber-filled venues...

...traveling through the deep places of the world...

...and of course, shipping home cases of vintage, to name but a few activities.

Don't worry though, I plan to post a free pattern this weekend to tied you all over in my absence. When I return, I will post Dem Bones for your October delight.

Move ova Frodo, here I come!
