I was at the local yarn shop 2 weeks ago and they had this lovely lace yarn in beautiful bright "fall" colours - it was only 17% wool (the rest was cotton, polyester and silk) but it itched like crazy and I kept reacting even after we left the shop, even my hands felt creepy while handling it. But the colours were so wonderful I said to my sister that maybe if I washed it... but she laughed at me.
Your sister is right to laugh. Washing isn't going to work, alas. I remembe when in high school and college, the band uniforms were all wool. So here I am, in south Louisiana, in the heat, and having to put on long underwear to keep from itching to death. I had me a sweat bath!

I have a massive fear of heights though, so I'd never be able to do anything like that. Just thinking of the first 10 minutes of Cliffhanger makes my hands sweat. I also have a podcast, that's sort of a hobby I suppose.
I also play video/computer games! Yeah I do have fun with them. I have Tiger Woods PGA 2004-2008. I got them for the joy of it, not Tiger! I also have my PS2 yet. My daughter and I have too much fun with it to give it up!
