A successful Friday
Another week went by and indeed another Friday, one of the coldest, but rather satisfying.
I finally got to the Yarn shop on Chestnut Hill (a very nice neighborhood near Mt. Airy, where I'm currently staying).
The shop was awesome, God so much variety... in everything!
They had balls of yarn, skeins and wraps (I think they're called), finally bought the circular needles I've been jonesing for the past month and began my HP scarf (Tami, it'll be done by next winter I promise :).
Got stitch markers and DPN's (double pointed needles, to make the booties) and the shop owner was no nice, one of those classic bald men with a car underfoot.
He was very sweet and helpful and was very interested in the (lack of) variety in Israel, since he caught the fact that I was Israeli and he himself was Jewish... knits his own כיפות for God's sake.
So it was good.
Went to Borders books and bought a DC comic book with Batman and Superman, oh how I love the Bats... Supes is okay... in a boy scout kind of way. I love the interaction and dichotomy in those two, it's amazing how different their approach is and still how successful they are as superheroes.
Batman in probably the only reason I prefer DC to Marvel (okay and Vertigo is better, but they're practically independent from DC anyway).
Oh to be a superhero... but being a Mutant is better.
Batman is human and he's better than all of them.

I told my sister I had an on-line freind (you) who lives near Buffalo and she askied me yo pass along a few questions;
1) Do you know East Aurora? And if so what is it like? (one of the places we are considering staying at).
2) Is the Canadian side really better?
3) Do you know any good places in Buffalo we can stay in?
Thankee!

2) The Canadian side is better, and there's more to do there. I'll fill you in more later about it.
3) In Buffalo, you can stay at any hotel on Niagara Falls Boulevard.
I'll fill you in more later. I"m going out to dinner now :)
