What's the one thing you're most neurotic about?
*Most* neurotic? Cleaning. And putting things away. I'm very particular about how things get put away and how things (especially the kitchen) get cleaned. Now that I'm aware of it, I try to let go and let other people help, but it's tough sometimes. It's definitely something that I'm neurotic about only in my *own* kitchen, though. Other people's kitchens can be as messy as they want :)
I know there are quite a few knitters in my neighborhood, so I thought I'd ask this question for a friend. She's getting married at the end of August and would like to knit a wedding-appropriate shrug or shawl or other wrap-like thing. She doesn't want to have sleeves on her dress, but also doesn't want to have bare shoulders in church.
So, post your favorite shrug/wrap/shawl pattern in the comments please!
How often do you call your parents?
If you're going to get technical, I hardly ever *call* my parents. But lately, I've been seeing them about once a week. Usually I see them about once a month and chat with my mom via email pretty regularly. It helps that we live in the same city (basically)

Diet Coke. and my computer, maybe. I could live without my computer, but it wouldn't be fun. Or pretty :) But Diet Coke is definitely a staple.

Describe Me in one word... just one word.
Heres how to Play :
1. Put my one word in the comments section of this post. Just one word that describes me.
2. Then copy and paste it into your blog to have others do the same about you.
When you travel, do you use a guidebook so that you're well prepared, or do you go without much prior knowledge so that you're surprised?

I use several guidebooks...and still have space/time for surprises... I like to plan a list of things to see and do, but we also leave time to wander and see things that we stumble on. I think it works pretty well that way.
