a couple of years ago, my friend lamele and I embarked on a mission to watch all six seasons of sex and the city. (we have very lofty goals!) every now and then, we’ll get together for another chunk of episodes, some drinks, and delicious food, and we’ve been very lax about getting through all of em. as summer gets going, bringing with it the knowledge that lamele’s moving to la in the fall to go to ucla, we have re-visited the quest and are trying to finish up season 6!

it’s been awesome because I haven’t really seen any of season 6 so while i had a general idea what the storylines were, these episodes are all new to me. and barishnakov is still pretty cute these days.

so last night we got together, lamele made tasty thai food for dinner, and we got our knit on as we watched four hours or so of SATC. we are so close to finishing, and plans are being formulated to watch the last two episodes over the 4th of July weekend!

what cracks my rear up about this show is all the superdrama that happens over lame crap, but actual dramatic events are completely glossed over. like there was an episode last night where candice bergen’s character is at a party complaining about being single and there’s shenanigans because she starts flirting with SJP’s boyfriend. drama drama drama! and then the chick from 3rd rock from the sun accidentally falls out of a window and DIES and it’s a super-minor thing that gets glossed over. I love this show, but stuff like that is a little weird.

since I wasn’t really keeping track of counting rows when I was knitting that baby sock at last week’s etsy craft party, I started over on it AGAIN, and by now I am an expert at that strange faux-cable texture they got goin on in the pattern! I just gotta knit a toe on this thing today and sock 1 is finished!!
