My descent into Dorkland just accelerated

It's official. I'm a big dork! Faythe and I were just talking about the awesomeness of Ravelry and how there were over 200 other people in front of me (they're still in beta and are inviting people to test) when I decided to check for an update on my status and this is what I saw:

Of course, I texted Faythe right away! The following is a sampling of exactly just how far gone we are. Note the typos and caps as we get extremely excited.

rayleen: i should check it now to see if it's updated
faythe: it's not
i mean, it hasn't changed
rayleen: !!!

T CARE
rayleen: I bet we'LL BE INVITED BY THE END OF THE DAY

Faythe went on to have some physical reactions to the good news. You can check that out here.

If you don't know what Ravelry is and you're a knitter or crocheter, then shame on you! SHAME ON YOU! Ok just kidding. But you may want to click here. :

I will admit, I don't know what Ravelry is. But I signed up for it after I read Faythe's and your post about it. I'll blog about it - then you can see my place in line.
