it's really more of a rant and less of a post so scroll down if you want to read the real post of the day

Why in the name of GOD is it so difficult to find 12" #8 circular needles?!? Over my supper break in gale force winds I traversed the 4 blocks to my never-let-me-down LYS. Not only did they not have the needles, the guy actually convinced me that I was a lunatic, that 12" needles didn't exist and got me to purchase 16" for $7.25. Desperate to start the legwarmers, I bought them. I've now been on the website of LYS #2 and THEY don't have 12" either. I'm down to the last LYS that I never use because they don't have a website, their stuff is way overpriced and they seem all snooty and not knitterly but tomorrow I have no choice. My only other option is--I can't believe I'm even considering this--the big bad box stores on the north end of town.

I shudder at the thought.

Oh, Mr. Yarn Shop?

I'm not crazy.
