The new season of Daredevil dropped on Netflix on Friday, and we managed to slam through the whole thing over the weekend! I don't know if that helped or hindered my stitching...you would think that much TV time would have helped, but this show is very suspenseful and not great to stitch to! It's a fantastic series, but INCREDIBLY graphically violent, so be forewarned! I'm still not "caught up" on April from The Snowflower Diaries...
I thought I was going to be able to take the day off on Thursday, but I had too many meetings scheduled, so I'm taking off next Wednesday and Thursday instead. I had vacation days that carried over from last year, and if I don't use them by March 31st, I will "lose" them!!
And now for the Desperately Important Thing (not really). You all know about Easter Eggs, right? No, not colored chicken eggs, but the little hidden gems that are sometimes put in DVDs/BluRays/computer games/etc. I saw a great one pop up on Twitter that I had to share. Go to Vogue UK, wait until the page is done loading, then using your keyboard, enter the Konami code: Up arrow, Up arrow, Down arrow, Down arrow, Left arrow, Right arrow, Left arrow, Right arrow, b, a...then keep hitting a for as long as you are amused. =D This also works on Wired UK, although with less variety. Sadly, the sites on this side of the pond do not have the same embedded awesomeness!

I came, I bit my nails, I stitched, I wasted a lot of time with velociraptors. |

I'll have to try it lol but yeah that is a good show. I'm not super into a lot of the superhero shows but I like this one
Looks like some stitching got done, so definitely a plus weekend.
Little progress is still progress :)
So far I have been able to keep up with the SAL. My issue is I keep finding so many other projects.
We're about halfway through Daredevil and it really is good, though as you say it's a bit gory in parts. I may never look a a drill in the same way again.
I absolutely loved the easter egg on the vogue site and am off to share it with the girls immediately
I've missed you! I don't know what I was expecting on the Vogue site, but it wasn't that! Very funny.
Nice progress on the Joyful World too.
What a lovely project! We have not watched any of Daredevil Season 2 yet. Season 1 I discovered it is a show I cannot stitch too. Instead of just listening and stitching, I end up watching (or burying my face in my husband's arm when things get too violent.)
I feel you on the suspenseful shows. I'll be watching and clutching my Qsnap and not stitching. :) At least you got the whole season done already.
I have to admit, I did a lot of stitching to Daredevil (I just finished the first season), because I'm not a huge fan of the hyperviolence and it takes away from the show for me.
And I will also have to admit that I spent entirely too much time with that Easter egg ;)
