A successful Friday

eumeliaAnother 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.

Date: 2006-03-04 06:04 am (UTC)I'm prorbably one of the oldest Buffy fans in Israel having seen it since it began on network television, which most people missed here.
I hate those stupid teenage girls that are "Shiny" ugh, they annoy the hell out of me, the guys seem to be better, since they seem to be a little bit more rational when it comes to the inter-relationships with the characters.
I think Buffy, Angel and Spike should form a menage, it'll balance out so well, True Love and Great Sex!
