![Confession Time with Katie:
Playing Mario Kart has made me a worse driver. As I drove to lunch with a friend, I wished for a flashing star so I could be invincible and drive through everything.
Also, we're eating bagels for lunch because throwing rules out windows is my new favorite hobby.
Speaking of hobbies, I started a Constellate Hat in the colorway, African Violets by LolaBean Yarn. The first Constellate took me nineteen months so surely i can beat that!
LOL. @marz1pan thought I was knitting a sock for someone with HUGE calves!
In writing news, I plan to send a short story before mid-December so join my Inner Circle Email List if you need a dopamine hit right about now.
I hope you have the Monday you need, Crew! I love you!!!!
[ID: Veggie rosemary bagel and tuna salad sesame seed bagel with a purple hat in progress.]

1. RIPD (rest in peace department) was quite a bit better than I expected. Granted, I wasn’t expecting much given the lame title, but it did entertain me.
2. Ryan Reynolds pulled off the unshaven look really well. He’s kind of clean and pretty, so I wasn’t sure it was going to work, but it did.
3. This movie struck me as a cross between Ghost and Ghostbusters. I liked both of those movies and when this comes out on DVD, I’ll be watching it again.
4. Kevin Bacon made a really good bad guy and Jeff Bridges was quite a bit less annoying than he could have been.
5. Mary-Louise Parker was rocking the go-go boots.
6. If you liked Men in Black 3, I think you’d like RIPD.
7. There weren’t really any knits to speak of, so here’s my current project.

That’s very pretty! I like it in a solid color, too.
Thanks! me too!
I’m pretty sure that sock pattern is in my queue too! What a gorgeous texture on the legs!
I find Ryan Reynolds a bit too clean and shiny – give me Matthew McConaughey instead please :)
Thanks!!
Matthew Mc. is nothing to sneeze at. This role was a bit cheesey for the grittiness that seems to be Mr. McConaughey, imo.
I heard it was a pretty good movie. Heard it from a 15 year old so I do feel a little better about it being good coming from you.
It’s not Gone with the Wind, but if you liked Ghost and Ghostbusters, I think I can safely say you’ll enjoy this movie.
