Speeding Along
My poor little thumb (left) has been taking a beating at work, and after the beating it took over the semester (note-taking–how sad is that?), it’s very sensitive. To spare it, this will be a low text entry. The Icarus is speeding along, so much as anything that has 400+ stitches per row can speed.

It’s Good to Be Free
Hello Hello Hello School is out, and I am free!!!! Every time I think of it, I get excited all over again. After replenishing my soul with music (note title and intro are both Oasis references), I feel fully prepared to enjoy my time off. My first urge was to run to my LYS and

Total Denial Reigns
Is it really a week since I blogged last? It doesn’t seem like it was that long ago. Wait. It wasn’t–I know for absolute certian that I blogged on Tuesday. And today is Saturday. I don’t know how that works, if it works, but I can’t cudgel my poor brain into pondering it. Icarus (pictured

Inexplicable
Back at the end of March, Stephanie Pearl-McPhee sent out a call to knitters, asking them to engage in one day of inexplicable knitter behavior. Her readers responded exuberantly, and I can only imagine how perplexed the non-knitting denizens of their respective cities were. The day for inexplicable knitting fell on a Tuesday, a school

Happy Earth Day
My university surprised me: usually every day with a cause results in an onslaught of supporters and opposition on the campus, with everybody shouting, waving signs, and thrusting clipboards at you. There was none of that today–not even a bleak documentary scheduled to show on the big mall after sunset. I was rawther surprised, but

Bad Blogger
Quanto lo siento. I think I’ve just broken about every rule known to blogdom. I subjected you to unsolicited griping, I got off topic, and then I disappeared. (In case you were perplexed by the picture, Skalbagge is a stuffed pillbug, one of my growing collection of Ikea creatures. Its mouth unzips to hold pajamas

Just a Moment
I’m having a moment. Just a moment. I lost my religion Thursday. I passed Frail and Bedazzled yesterday. Would it be problematic if I were to stand outside and sing a Dirge to Earth and Sky? Stats: Three tests on Thursday (have only begun to study)Two presentations next week (les odio Powerpoint, dientes y los

OMG
101 Things One Would Never Expect to Happen (In the order they happened) 1. Winning the tooth-counting contest in Dental Anthropology. I really don’t know what to say about that one. (My grand prize doubles as an oversized-necklace holder.) 2. I’m off deskwork. Remember how I had an operation to improve my hearing this winter?

Easter
Easter is an interesting watershed point in the year. No matter whether it falls early or late in the year, it consistently marks the dividing line between when one can wear jeans during daytime hours and when one cannot. This year is no exception; we have officially entered phase one of the Endless Summer. Defining

We Now Return to Our Regularly Scheduled Programme
Spring break has been over for about a week now. Over with a vengeance. In between my History of English project, the Wari (cool people–not enough research on them), and the Tiwanaku (interesting if I didn’t have to cram an entire book on them), I have rediscovered Quant. There is more to this little project
