I was pretty tired after all the traveling and running around I did this weekend, so when I got up this morning and was groggier than usual (I hate mornings with a vengeance), I forgot to put my ankle braces on. Technically, I’m not wearing them because my ankles hurt or anything; I wear them because there’s something wrong with my heels (my co-workers insist it’s plantar fasciitis or Continue reading
My latest poster creation
Ferdinand Folk Festival
Knitting
My knitting’s getting better. I’m not leaving crazy holes in everything I make, and I learned three or four ways to increase. I still haven’t made much beyond all-knit-stitch panels for a blanket and some squares that I suppose are supposed to be coasters or washcloths or potholders or whatever.

It’s a library science course called “School & Public Library Administration.” I would rather have taken one on material acquisition or cataloguing and cataloguing management. While I sometimes help out a little with what books to get, acquisitions isn’t really one of my responsibilities, and the odds of me Continue reading
Holy cow! Shelf space! (for now)
Rearranging books
It all started on Friday. I decided that the bookshelf next to my desk was too cluttered, so I spent the morning (early morning, I might add because Ian woke me up early) cleaning and reorganizing it. Then I thought about the rest of the living room, which is always quite messy because I have far too many hobbies. The fact that our books were in no particular order has been bothering me Continue reading
