For the 12 year olds:
Scene: Our vehicle, 2:30 p.m. on our way from San Francisco, CA to Eugene, OR.
While Hungry Like a Wolf blares on the radio, I let out a silent, putrid belch borne of the Indiana Jones Whopper I had for lunch in Weed, CA. Katr fixes me with a withering glare.
Katr: Holy. SHIT.
Me: I know. This Indy burger keeps producing sequels.
Simon Le Bon: Mouth is ALIVE with juices like WINE and I'm hungry like a wollll-
Me: If the franchise has one more release, I'm gonna have to start charging admission. But kids will still get in fr...
(rest of my sentence drowned out by Katr rolling down my window on the highway)
For the knitters:
Scene: Our vehicle, 3:00 p.m., after leaving the Tom Bihn factory and showroom in Seattle where we got an amazing personal tour and left with many bags.
Katr: I can't believe you talked them into giving you that Swift Knitting Bag.
Me: I know. Pull over so I can look at it again!
Katr: How about you take a break from using your mind to drive the car and use it to picture the bag instead?
Me: Touché.
That's right, knitters - I'm helping to build Katr's Funky, Chic and Cool laptop bag review empire by reviewing - what else? - knitting bags.
And the Swift Knitting Bag by Tom Bihn is the first review up! Here's a quote:
With its clever construction, myriad organizational options and action-oriented name, I predicted that the Swift would take me from knit klutz to knit kninja in seconds. That's right! Knit Kninja! Hear that wooshing sound? That was me, finishing a whole sock before you could turn your head!
I do actually review the bag further down the page. It's a pretty awesome bag. Makes me want to knit things. Like my own shuriken and multiple sets of knunchucks. Kninja!
