JessaLu Knits (and Spins!)

…you’ll get knits. In the meantime, I saw this meme over at CraftyLily’s and, since quoting movies is one of the many things that brought RR and I together, I decided I had to do it. Feel free to play along on your own blog and let me know if you do, k?

1. Pick 10 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie. (If you’re a quote freak like myself you don’t have to look them up…)

3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
5. Looking them up is cheating, please don’t.

Ready?

1. Let ‘em riot. We’re Sonic-f*ckin-Death Monkey.

2. What’s happenin’ hot stuff?

3. WHERE ARE MY FIREBIRD KEYS.

4. Besides, we both know that I’m training to be a cage fighter.

5. So, what would you little maniacs like to do first?

6. Could you describe the ruckus, sir?

7. Not my gum-drop buttons!

8. Generally you don’t see that kind of behavior in a major appliance.

9. You sit on a throne of lies!

10. Oh, but you can’t expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you.

ETA: Here are a couple bonus ones (since there were *ahem* complaints that they were left out):

11. What the hell is a gigawatt?!?

12. Yo lunchbox, hurry it up.

…and an addition to Chez ‘Lu.

No, not THAT kind of an addition. No more dogs, no more kids (frankly, Dobby has broken me, er, spoiled me for any other children) and, I have been told, no more video games for a while. (*sniffle*)

First, thank you all for your Blog-Birthday/Blogiversary/Blogaversary/Blogversary wishes! I love hearing from you - even if it does take bribery to get you to comment! ;o) (you know, you can comment more, I mean, I don’t bite, at least…not often. *cough*)

Second, meet the New Hottness:

I don’t know why, but that’s what popped into my head when I took her out of the box and set her up for the first time on Monday. I have since been informed that ‘New Hottness’ is not an acceptable name so I need to come up with a new one. Any suggestions? (seriously, RR is really becoming a stick in the mud now that he’s on the downward slope towards the big four-oh. Wait. Maybe I shouldn’t have told you that…)

What is pinned on her at this time is my CPH in progress. Yes, the front section is pinned onto the wrong side, I realized this when I reached the arm decreases. It’s fixed now. ;o) I’ve been making crazy progress ever since Carole went and used her mom voice the other day and told me to put down the Wii controller and start knitting. When Carole uses her mom voice, you listen. You ever hear her mom voice? It’s skeery! ;o)

But you guys don’t really care about my knitting progress, do you. At least, not today. Not when there’s a Big *ss Prize up for grabs! I bet you all are dying to know who won, aren’t you? Well, I won’t make you wait another second!

I put all your names (times two since all you guys who commented on my last post were pre-commenters) into my super-de-dooper name picker (RR’s hat), swirled them all around and pulled out….

MICHELLE!!!!

Congrats to Michelle, who will be receiving a gift certificate to the Loopy Ewe as soon as she lets me know what email she wants me to use to send it AND a skein of sock yarn AND a hank-o-roving from my stash! Hell, I’m jealous - I wish I could have won! hehehe

Thanks again to everyone who played!

Three years ago today, I started blogging. In the past three years, I have learned a lot about knitting, blogging, coding and photography. I have also made new friends, IRL and online and I cherish you all. Thank you for joining me on this journey - I look forward to another year!

To celebrate this milestone, I’m having a contest. It’s pretty simple, really - leave a comment on this post and you’ll be entered into a drawing for some yarn or roving (or both, depending on my mood) and…drumroll please….

…a $25 gift card to The Loopy Ewe. There’s a twist, though. My regular readers will be getting a bonus - if you have left a comment on my site prior to this post, you get two chances to win. ;o)

You have until midnight Tuesday to enter - good luck!
