Knitting Socks - circular needle

I was checking out the sock wars forum and found mention of using a circular needle to knit socks. I didn't think you could knit something that small on circulars. Anyway to make a long story short I gave it a try and I love it.

The only problem is that it's now after 5pm and I am yet to do any housework at all and trust me the house needs it. Of course my energy level is now dropping and the only thing that sounds good is a nap but I must push myself to get off my ass before I'm sleeping at the computer. Thank goodness for my dishwasher.
