I will be glad when the Hundred Hat Project is over

Not that I haven't enjoyed knitting hats, or that it hasn't done wonders for my knitting speed (I'm probably going to be done by the end of the month, well ahead of schedule, and that's with time-outs to do other things for people). But I tend to take my knitting with me where ever I go (airports are AWESOME places to knit hats, btw), and inevitably, people ask what I'm knitting, and so I tell them it's a hat, and often they ask who it's for/is it a gift, and then I explain...

...and then they give me a subtle (or not so subtle) look of "are you crazy", and ask why. Because apparently it's not obvious that people might like to be less cold in the winter. And I've gotten this reaction from people actively working for charities, like the ones running the food bank for the church by my workplace.

Humans depress me.

And then something will happen that does not suck

I have a Knit Picks order (just a tiny one...under $10) that's late. As in, FedEx's tracking says they handed it off to the PO a week ago, and normally I get it the next day, and it's not here yet. So I went to the website to see if tracking had updated, and I guess the new Knit Picks shopping cart software screwed something up, because clicking tracking pulled up an error message, which I dutifully reported (along with a brief explanation of why I was trying to track the package).

And today I get an email that doesn't address my actual problem report, but instead tells me they're re-shipping my late and possibly missing order. *blink*

So, if you ever wonder why Knit Picks gets so much of my money, things like this would be why.
