i should be hoping but i can't stop thinking

thanks to everyone who's being lovely and dwarfy and hopefully when i'm being grumpy and busy and stressy.

random: i love gmail - they advertise things like morning monkeys.

things are actually going really well in some ways, and really challenging in other ways - unfortunately the challenges are directly related to the going really wells. so i work. i try very hard to figure out how to balance these things.

and i send more monk-e-mails!

i'm still here

i'm just busy and grumpy and stressy.

you may continue with your lives.

stresssssssmonkey

i have a busy month ahead of me. i have interviews, i have cross-country travel, i have homework to do.

what is a girl to do? she'll think about what she'll knit on the plane. like gerda's stole in the alpaca cloud (in horizon) laceweight (on US3s or 4s i'm thinking) maybe on some bryspun straights. because those aren't metal or circular, they have pointy tips for the lace, and semaphoria just might leave her husband for bryspun straights.

or maybe the shetland triangle? something lacy... not ene's scarf - that pattern done pissed me off one times too many, hence the unassigned alpaca cloud in horizon. i've heard enough people were bored of icarus that maybe not that one... unless i'm confusing icarus and the shetland triangle.

anyhow, i've got 3 or 4 sk of the alpaca cloud and am taking suggestions of what to knit with it.

it's 5:22 am

and i'm already 1 hour and 18 minutes into a pretty freakin' crappy day.
