"Those who are here can place no hope in death"

I have come to believe that I now inhabit a circle of Dante's Inferno that was never described.

It's for those persons who have annoyed others, switched lanes without a proper signal, bought store cookies and passed them off as their own and felt slightly guilty about it but never 'fessed up, and possibly outright pissed off several people along the way for various reasons.

Welcome to the Never Ending Fucking Shrug circle of hell:

I have been knitting on this thing and knitting on it, and yet more knitting. I have been so good to my word about not starting anything new to take the edge of the crankiness that's growing with this shrug. Does it progress better then for my virtuous behavior? Of course not. Thank the uber geeks for iPod and podcasts and audio books.

Only Garrison Keillor reading his work, "Stories," can make this endurable.

You know, I thought you were exaggerating, but no - that IS the Never Ending Fucking Shrug of Hell. Are you sure you even want the thing anymore!?

p.s. Garrison Keillor is awesome - now I have to get that audio!

It's just the tedious 1x1 ribbing that does it. I'm 8.25 inches from the end of the knitting. Then I have to sew it up. Gah. Dante is correct, death is too great a hope to get away from this shrug!

You'll love Keillor's audio book - especially "Your Book Saved My Life." HILARIOUS!
