I’m wiggly-wiggly happy right now.
My discontent with my former user name (lillalette) had been growing for quite some time – ever since I discovered that there was a world-known tampon with a startlingly similar name. Who wants to share a name with a tampon? It’s bad enough I occasionally confuse Carefree with Stayfree: try explaining to the pimply gentleman cashier what’s going through your head when you shout out, “Wait, I need some Carefree!” and then rush to the secret ladies’ aisle.
No, sir, I did not need that.
So, here I am, Miss Purl McKnittington, formerly known as lillalette, ready to poke some ignorance in the eye* with my weapon of choice – a number 10 1/2 knitting needle in metallic sea green, flying a flag of truth done up in k2p2 rib.
And it’s all courtesy of Madame Lynn “Bodacious” Bodoni. Thank you!
Oh, yeah.
Not that I’d actually poke a person in the eye. Oh no. Just ignorance, which, as far as I know, has no corporeal substance*.
**This is, of course, open to argument
