glow stick

i've had a much better day :)

i woke up feeling well rested, it makes a huge difference to my mental state. i think i might have been talking in my sleep last night. i dreamt fru was speaking to me, he might have been (in interpretive meows) but in dream he was speaking in english and it didn't occur to me that there was something odd about that. i don't remember what he was saying... why am i still typing this story??

anyway, i had a good day. a fine day.

i biked down to the toucan to meet up with april. on the way i bumped into laney who gave me a hug. as i biked away i felt bad because i didn't ask her how she was doing. i'm sorry about that laney. i'm trying to not be that kind of person. then i stopped at irina's to give her a thank you gift for fru-fru sitting while i was camping (yes, i know that was in july). i was feeling like i haven't been getting much excerise lately, so i biked, but it was downhill the whole way. and my brain said to me "you realize this doesn't count as excerise just because you're outside, right?" hmph.

i was digging thru all the wool i inherted from melinda's housemate's old housmate, and discovered a bizzillion knitting needles. and i declared "as god as my witness... i will never need to buy needles again!" halleujah. (they're all metal too which is good because i accidentally break plastic ones.)

well i guess that's it for today. i'm going to go knit something. then go to bed early :)

i just happen to like apples.

Yay for hand-me-down yarn and needles! In your plethora of new knitting needles, I don't suppose you have an extra douple-pointed 6mm needle you'd like to send my way? I seem to have lost one somewhere in Melbourne...

thanks al. even just a little encouragement goes a long way these days. like water to my soul :) nice hat ;)

joanna, i can check for you. but how bout using a pick-up-stick as an alternative?

i'm knitting a pole cozy for my big characterless lamp - like the knitta people. and you? STILL your mom's sweater thing??

Have you tried bamboo needles? They're my favourite.

It was so good to see you when you biked by - funny because i had just read your last entry and planned to call you. I was craving a real conversation with you but I know you had other places to be... so we'll have to catch up soon. and I need to catch me a little peace & relaxation on the way too...

no, i haven't tried bamboo needles. i'd like to, although... i'm not sure if i can justify buying knittig supplies for a long time. melinda estimates i have baout $500 worth of knitting stuff from that weirdo girl.

oh laney, indeed we do need to get together soon. things have been hectic, my brain has been frazzled. are you going to beckless gathering tonight?
