Ha! Finished!
May. 29th, 2005 11:45 pmSecond deadline thing? Done! Ha! Even with a weekend that proved to be much busier than I thought (and this after backing out of a couple of things) I got my things done on time and everything! Woot! Go me!
Granted I got about zero exercise done this weekend too, but shh! Deadlines! Completed deadlines! This is happiness!
Tomorrow I'm taking as a me day. Other than some light housework I shall do nothing except that which gives me pleasure. I'm not even sure yet what that will be, but that's what I'm doing.
I forget if I've mentioned yet that I've started work on a baby sweater. I've frogged the thing two times now - once when I realized I miscounted my guage, twice when I realized that I should've adjusted the stitch count based on the pattern for my correct guage. Basically my guage had me casting on an odd number of stitches for something that's eventually worked in an even pattern (k2, p2). I realize I could've just had the odd stitch out, but I was only a few rows in so easier to frog and adjust. Eventually this will in theory turn into a proper garment. It remains to be seen.
In non-spoilery Firefly news I didn't get the chance to mention how I hung out with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lucifrix, stakebait, justhuman and boniblithe thanks to the Serenity showing. I also ran into annavtree in the women's bathroom where I proved my blondness yet again but not recognizing her until I saw her shoes. I also believe that inyron was in the house but while I can see her face in my mind I'm blanking on my 100% surity that that's her LJ name. I suppose I'll know by tomorrow if I'm right or not ;)
I took Friday off so that it could be a relaxed day of eventually wandering my way back home, and this turned out very well aslucifrix and I got to spend the afternoon trying to teach stakebait how to knit. stakebait eventually had to leave for a con and at the time of her leaving she seemed determined yet dubious about the knitting process, so we'll see if she comes out of Baltimore an addict or if we'll need to work on her some more. lucifrix was also very kind enough to bequeath some ribbon yarn to me, so I need to go refind all those patterns for pretty scarves and such that I mentally put aside as undoable because at the time I owned no ribbon yarn.
Note to self: do not buy more yarn until you have more spare cash at least. Yes, that includes Knit Picks.
