I know. I'm not posting. And secret pal started and I know how annoying it is to start something like that and your secret pal not help the situation AT ALL by suddenly disappearing from blogland. But this week is really, really, REALLY crazy at work. My manager is of the "magic wand" style - as in she promises stuff and assigns me deadlines with no regard to what she's already tasked me with. Basically I'm training docs all day and writing templates all night.

On the knitting front - I did rip out that boatneck baby sweater and do the cardigan instead. All the pieces have been finished and waiting to be sewn together for over two weeks now. I'm half-way through the drops cardigan - other people who've done it weren't kidding when they said it takes forever. Uh....I think that's all. Not a lot of knitting going on.

So, to stay sane, I've been escaping to my favorite place in the world - that of the Japanese pop idol. This DVD arrived yesterday, (208 minutes of kakkoi goodness) and some other people have put bits of it on the internet, so here is a sample. It's the last song of the last show of the tour, so pardon the sappiness. I think it, and each of them, are adorable. God bless those pretty Japanese men. They make the world a better place.
