Shoot

I took an unitentional blacation (thanks Julie). I’m back though, I swear.

Here’s some stuff I did amongst the insane running around and various business of the last week:

I learned to crochet. This is the easiest thing I have ever learned to do, though I’m still making square-shaped things mostly. I swear I learned to crochet in five minutes, it is that easy. But it is a nice, meditative activity and I need that badly right now since time to actually meditate is taken up with various day job and house management responsibilities. Anyone out there crochet? Favorite projects? I’m still a beginner, but my big goals are

a. A blanket and

b. A Jayne hat. I’m also leaning toward a Dr. Who scarf, oh yes, leaning…

I discovered that pretzel bread goes really weird after a day thanks to salt+moisture. Odd, but still edible.

I had the profound and disturbing notion that I’m seeing my writing all wrong. More on that later, because it is angst-tacular. Secondary to that, I realized I have to re-learn some stuff. Bah. But that’s okay, because I love to write and I’m not giving it up for some niggly angst issue, so THERE.

I hopefully declare this blacation over. See you tomorrow!
