Tonight Animal Planet showed “In The Wild – The Polar Bears of Churchill with Ewan McGregor”.
I was in heaven. Polar bears and Ewan McGregor. Now, I’ve seen it before, more than once. I have it on tape. And I still couldn’t knit while I watched – far too distracting. 🙂
I may have mentioned before that I love Polar Bears. My family prefers the word obsessed. We went to the Gold Coast in January 2002, and I insisted that we go to Sea World to see the Polar Bears. I have a teacup and a coffee mug, both with polar bears on them. My birthday cards invariably have polar bears on them. I have keyrings with Polar bears, stuffed toy polar bears, a polar bear calendar, magnets, polar bears statuettes and polar bear earrings.
I adore Polar Bears.
If I only ever go overseas once in my life, it will be to Churchill to see the Polar Bears. And if I’m lucky, Ewan McGregor 😉
In knitting news, I seem to be getting closer to the end of the poncho. Or I seem to be running out of yarn, anyway. The school concert went ahead without a hitch today, and I worked on the poncho.
And, in other wonderful news, I won a RAOK contest on Brenda‘s blog! I won Confetti sock yarn, which I haven’t tried yet, so I am looking forward to it very much 🙂
Have a Nice Day. Hug a Polar Bear 🙂
If I was actually asked which term I prefered, I would take a few minutes (as I just did) and come up with ‘terminally fascinated’.
I mailed the sock yarn to you today. They said it should take about two weeks to get to you. Can’t wait to see the socks you knit with them!
