Four days to go
Apr. 8th, 2013 09:56 amSoon, there will be long drives and good friends and good music to be had. I just have to get through the next 4 days.
This Saturday consisted of a lot of nothing. Well, that's not true exactly. I worked on an afghan I decided last week I HAD to make for my step mother. In my true fashion, I can't follow the pattern exactly and had to improvise, LOL. It is done in 9 panels, each a different color. I'm not sure it will be wide enough when it's done though, so I may pick up one more skein of the first color to add a few more inches. But that will depend on how much time I have to finish.
I am on the last row of the sixth color. I hope to finish that and the seven rows of the seventh color tonight. Then hopefully the eighth and ninth colors tomorrow. If I do, I will pick up the extra skein on Wednesday and do those rows and start the trim. Which means possibly finishing the trim on the road...but whatever.
In other news, last night I started watching Vikings on ON Demand. Why wasn't I watching this before? Pirate seems particularly pleased with this. I think I watched the first 3 episodes yesterday.
( In writing news )
I have thinky, thoughtful ideas growing towards words with regards to depression, and how I see mine, and how I see others'....and why I can't reconcile them together...but I may not get them out just yet. Right now they're just vague notions without concrete form.
I have insane deadlines to meet this week, so I should get back to wrestling words and pictures into comprehensible formats.
I leave you with this:
1) What is your oldest possession?
2) Chocolate Cake?
3) *Points to the Right* What's over there?
4) You're running out of the house for a quick errand, what do you HAVE to take with you?
5) You're going out of town for a week. What's in your luggage?
6) What's the furthest you've been from what you consider "home"?
7) What's the most adventurous thing you've ever eaten?
8) Who is the first person you call when you have good news?
9) What is your specialty?
10) Can I has JDM? Pretty please?
