Cross-stitching black thread onto black fabric sucks donkey balls. I think my eyes are about to start bleeding.

Is there a reason you are doing this?

The pattern tells me to do it. I'm working on this:

Damn, I'm impressed.

Oh. Well, thanks. It's big & time consuming, but I don't know that it's too difficult.

I used to cross stitch when I was a kid. I have a complete lack of patience for such things now. I might start something, but will never finish them.

I haven't worked on anything in a long time. But I got invited to a Stich n' Bitch group and since it's physically impossible for me to knit ('cause of my carpal tunnel), I decided to start a cross-stitch project instead. Unfortunately, I do have the patience for it. Like too much so. My OCD kicks in and I get really obsessed about working on it - to the point where I'll forget to eat or sleep. =/

That's not a good thing. The only thing that will get that much devotion out of me are a new Harry Potter book and the occasional game of Bejeweled.
