Saturday

I was grasping at straws for a title there. Very enthralling, I know. So today is Saturday and tomorrow is Easter, and then its back to full time hell...I mean school..yes. Well actually, school isn't so bad, its the getting up so gosh darn early that I despise, that and the standardized tests. I have WASL's the next week after I get back. And then AP tests in May ( those are the ones I'm worried about, WASls and SATs are easy) and June second I have my SAT. I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but seeing as how this is the most boring blog on the face of the earth, and may have one, occasional, accidental reader, I feel that's OK. I guess I should start commenting on others peoples blogs more.

My Yellowstone sock is a bit past the heel gusset. I'm paranoid I won't have enough yarn, so I'm not feeling all that motivated to knit it.

The last two days here have been quite sunny and lovely, and today its overcast. Which I guess I am glad about. I went out yesterday for about 10 minutes, and ended up with a hundred new freckles and pink angry skin. ( Can you say lily white? And I don't even have red hair,I have dark hair) so Aloe Vera is my buddy today.

Instead of our own coreography, Ciara and I have decided to dance Miserlou in hafla, which is good because we are learning it hands on in class and can get lots of help.

Well..I have the worlds most boring essay to finish, along with some bio, but instead of doing that right away, I think I'm going to watch a movie, or look through cookbooks to find a chocolate pie recipe. I write better under pressure anyway. ( Really, while it sounds like an excuse to procrastinate, I can write out a decent essay in 30 minutes under pressure, or a crappy one in two days if there's no pressure)

I'm a bad blogger

Well, it's been a while.
I finished my Claudia's Hand painted socks. The yarn is nice, very vibrant. I like her colorways and will definitely use the yarn again. I did end up ripping back and doing it on my own, and figured out how to graft the toe shut. Thank goodness for that spiffy knitty article on grafting.

I started another pair in Garter stitch rib from " Sensational Knitted Socks" I finished the first sock. It looks pretty good. I'm really liking the yarn I used, Fleece Artist merino Socks in Woodland. I think I shall have to get more of this yarn.

Other than that, life has been generally busy. I have spring break next week, so I have tons of pre spring break finals. Ugh. And soon we start massive review for my AP tests, and I have to work to have money for my trip. It's all coming at me pretty fast. I also have to take the SAT in June. ( While that may make me sound like I actually accomplish things school related, don't let it fool you.)

Well, until tomorrow, when I can get pictures of my socks frolicking amongst the daffodils. If I can bear to go outside with all of the fun pollen running around out there. Too much plant sex for my taste. And its sunny out there. Kinda.
