Luddite, Genius and Geek
Tue Jul 08 2008

Your roving reporter here, checking in from an internet cafe, called 'It's a Grind' somewhere in the great state of California.  I came here with Mr. Armada laptop to see if I could get on the internet and lo and behold, here I am sitting in an armchair surrounded by my Tuesday Group knitting friends, blogging 'in the wild' so to speak.

The Luddite in me is mildly alarmed, but the geek part is jumping up and down with glee. 

Some days it's hard to be me.

I have eaten my banana and sipped a green iced tea, but I am eyeballing the blueberry bran muffins in the bakery case at the moment.

My knitterly friends are discussing what yarn to bring to a class that is being held tonight. One lady is teaching us something called a 'provisional cast on' that is required for the project. Turns out I actually already knew how to do it, and didn't even know what it was called.

(I suppose you think this makes you a genius...)

Welllll, sorta.  Can't I have it just this one time?

(Sigh, if it pleases you so much, go ahead.)

How 'bout you just say... "Yetzirah, you are a genius!"

(Delude yourself all you want, but I'm not saying anything of the kind.)

Fine.

I don't need your approval.

You can't mess with me today.

 I'm blogging in the wild.

Woo Hoo!

    You ARE a genius. Plain and simple.

    Now, did you sign up for that site I told you about the other day?

    Blogging in the wild sounds a little dangerous. Are you well prepared for this?

    Muffins are devious. They sit there looking so sweet and then, when you least expect it, they pounce!

    You should always be prepared and have the proper weapons on hand to deal with these sneak attacks. I suggest you invest in one of those little fork and knife sets they sell in camp supply stores. You can't be too careful you know.
