Sweet Home New Jersey

I always love being a Jersey girl, but especially on days like today. This was the view outside my office window today...


Why might you ask, are there people lined up from one end of the block to the other (and wrapped around the firehouse and spilling into the parking lot) since about 9:30 this morning? Because Kevin Smith came back to town today to do a signing at none other than his old home away from home Jay & Silent Bob's Secret Stash.
Tomorrow, if all goes well and the crowds aren't too crazy, we'll be knitting in the park and seeing him as a group - I'll share more pictures & details tomorrow.

Anyway, point of the story is I love NJ because people from NJ, who get NJ love NJ and will always be proud to tell you so. And Kevin Smith, besides being a really funny and seemingly nice guy, loves NJ and that my friends is bad-ass. While most people would be annoyed by a hundred + people standing on the sidewalk outside of there office all day, I wasn't. I found it endering and will miss seeing them there tomorrow.

Oh, and in knititng news, the dishcloth is done! It turned out to be a lighthouse which is pretty darn cool. I guessed what it was a few days ago but decided to bite my tongue on saying it out loud. Lucky I did because apparently there was major drama in the KAL group because some people were giving very obvious hints and ruining the fun for the rest of the group. I am so glad I'm not the one to ruin the ending!
