Truth

How could you not want someone to woo you with this song? It's real.

Lately


This is my latest work in progress. The colorway is fantastic. I'm hoping I'll have enough yarn to finish a substantial scarf. I have another ball about twice the size of this one that I'll add when the current one runs out so I'm not too worried. I can't remember where I bought this though. That may present a problem. My 2nd anniversary of learning how to knit is in about a month and I'm still horrible at knowing how much yarn I'll need for any given project.
I've recently learned how to knit the brioche stitch, which is what the scarf above is, and I've started 4 different scarfs with it. Who knows if I'll ever finish them. Oh snap I just thought of something.  My mom is thinking about learning to knit & if she does then I can pawn a couple scarfs off on her to finish! Excellent idea.

The other day when I went to the museum with Clairey D and LS, L mentioned that his mom wanted to commission some beard hats. I decided I'm totally not going to take any payment, because his mom is too awesome. She is so sweet and she seems to think I'm nice enough, too. I can't comprehend it, but I try not to think about it too much.

I'm Laura Linney and this...

You know how someone will say, "See you next Wednesday"? Well what if they said it to you on a Tuesday... That isn't code for 'see you tomorrow,' is it? They mean NEXT week probably. Right?

I've been binge-ing on Downton Abbey the past 4 days, hence the title.

While I've been in bed watching the show, I keep smelling cigarette smoke. I also smelled it while I was in class today. I have no idea where it's coming from or if I have a brain tumor that's making me smell ghost cigarette smoke constantly.

If they kill off Mr. Bates, I'm going to be SO upset.

An Evening of Awesome


It starts at 35:20. It's also rather long so set aside a few hours, or watch in shorter segments. But watch.


Blue Valentine was sad. I don't think I like Michelle Williams. The two things I've ever watched her in, she was horribly annoying. Ryan Gosling though. Heartbreaking.

Cool

Anxiety! Welcome back!
So what do I do if I'm 99.6% certain that if I continue to stay in a class, I'm going to fail, but there are no other classes available for me to replace it with and if I don't add another class then I might lose my job on campus? Added bonus: the class is with my favorite teacher, whom I only want to adore me.
