in which there was shedding

What animal sheds a the most of all animals? Because I seem to be channeling that animal today. A yak? Moose? Sometimes I think it's my Labrador Retriever (as she seems to end up on every black piece of clothing I own). But there has to be some animal shedding it's fur for the summer to release way more fur than my 50lb pup. Anyway, I'm channeling whatever animal that is.
I keep getting that feeling you get when you feel one of your hairs on your arm and it's there when you move and you can't reach it no matter how many times you try and it's going to be there forever bothering you and WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST SHAVE YOUR HEAD LIKE ANNE HATHAWAY EVEN THOUGH YOU COULD NEVER PULL IT OFF BUT AT LEAST YOU WOULDN'T BE IN THIS MESS!!!
Just. Breathe...... and knit sock, which is neverending even though it should be ending soon, but there is yet another sock of the same waiting to be cast on.....How can something take so long and still end up too small for your large lady feet?

The aforementioned sock
I have been very faithful to the sock since it began over a week ago. I have given it my full time and attention and it is very close to completion, and have only strayed from it for one other project (and that's a gift so it doesn't count) . I will conquer sock, but perhaps I might start a shawl before I cast on for its mate. Or some lace, and there is that hat.... Hmmmmm
Knitting, you are a fickle mistress....
