sunday

Today: respite, which included lunch at Chipotle and dessert at the Haagen-Daas shop, and a stop by weaving works to pick up a crochet hook and a circular needle to try magic loop on, and a ball of deep violet coloured Rowan Kidsilk Haze which just leapt into my basket. Had panic attack due to swelling feet in shoes.

Seaners went to the park with the respite person.

Apartment mostly clean. Icing angry ankle tendon. Going to attempt to write for a while. Have appointment with respite agency (wish I didn't, as then I could nap.)

How was your Sunday?

Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today!

I'm glad you had a somewhat enjoyable day. You've already read about mine.

Sunday for me has consisted of cooking (meatloaf, Corgiguy's bread, chocolate chip-oatmeal cookies) and cleaning (scoured the upstairs bathroom from top to bottom) and laundry (I think the stuff breeds in the basket). Corgiguy is making everyone's lunches, and when he's done, I'm going to cut his hair.

Mmmmmmmmm, chocolatechip oatmeal cookies. Delicious.
And yes, augh. Laundry is just /awful/.

You have pretty dragons!
And I'm currently jealous of the fact that you a) know what to do with a crochet hook and b) know what a ball of deep violet coloured Rowan Kidsilk Haze even is. This is just further proof of your fabulousness.
:P

It's not too too hard. <3 <3 this is the colour I have (http://www.yarncountry.com/Rowan-Kidsilk-Haze-Violetta--633-p3871.aspx) - it is so, so pretty.
And the crochet hook is for the little Japanese amigarumi things - I'm going to make a chibi coffee cup.

It's been nice. I listened to a couple of Tom Waits album, editing a long fic to be posted later tonight, and ate soup I'd made yesterday. The effort that went into the food to get me three meals - I had it for lunch and dinner - was well worth it. And I made brownies.

I also trekked up to the gym, where I did this one thing where I don't quite know what it's called, and squatted more than I've ever done before. So that was good.

Your gym-commitment amazes me. I'm trying to get into a routine of going to the pool once a week and I talk myself out of it so easily it's not funny. :P

It's a few blocks up the street, gets me out of the house and off my butt, and I get to work out frustration over my school's policy. It's hard for me not to think of a reason.

Magic loop rocks, it's all I use for circular knitting. And I know what you mean about yarn jumping into your basket.

My sunday was unpacking some stuff and napping. Now is dinner :-)

I just bought the Sensational Sock Knitting books and I'm so, so excited to get started - and I want to try at least one pair magic loop (i have stuff for the two-circs method and I have dpns of course) just so i can see what i like best. *laugh*

Spent the first part of the day doing everything but schoolwork. Have now worked on my assignment for a few hours, and am enjoying some yogurt with wheat germ. Yum. ;)

♥♥

I'm addicted to that thick greek yogurt - the honey flavored stuff? It's so, so amazing, I like it with raspberries best.

Oooh, Chipotle! :) The office where I used to work was near a Chipotle and my coworkers and I would go there often. *So* yummy!

(And I clicked all your dragons. I like that pink guy on the left, and I don't even LIKE pink. :) But he's VERY cute.)

Eee, thank you! <3
It's just delicious. I have a real thing for their cilantro lime rice and i usually hate cilantro a LOT.

Am I remembering wrong, or did that right-most dragon used to be an egg earlier today? If so, yay, new dragon! :-D

[identity profile] phinnia.livejournal.com 2008-09-08 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
Nope, you're remembering perfectly. <3

Awwwww! *Coos at the new baby dragon*

shopping and laundry :( nap!!!:)

[identity profile] phinnia.livejournal.com 2008-09-07 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Augh. Laundry is neverending. :P We have three loads lurking in the back.

I'm glad you got some you time; however, I'm so sorry about the panic attack. :/

Here, Tom had to work most of the weekend, so I've been in a bit of a pisser. :( However, I did get out to get my hair cut (I was months overdue). I'm cooking dinner right now while he's watching the girls in another room. Tonight I hope to get some. :D

[identity profile] phinnia.livejournal.com 2008-09-07 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
GO YOU. <3 <3 <3
Haircuts are so nice. I desperately need one - next weekend I think. <3

Busy! Brunch with [livejournal.com profile] hsifyppah, [livejournal.com profile] drfilk, and [livejournal.com profile] vixyish this morning, moving furniture from my art studio to my new apartment this afternoon. Now debating either finishing kitchen packing or doing cartooning work.

[identity profile] phinnia.livejournal.com 2008-09-08 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
Oooh, that's right, you found a new place. When are you moving? The pictures you posted look awesome. <3

[identity profile] arjache.livejournal.com 2008-09-08 02:17 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks! I feel so lucky to have found it. Hoping to be moved out by the 15th - that's when the movers are scheduled, anyway. As for when I'll be completely moved in...well, I imagine that could take longer.

i read the next third of jules verne, then read about deviance and autoerotic asphyxiation, then had dinner and ice cream with friends and read the entirety of the i <3 female orgasm book. (more to come on that. pun totally intended.)

all in all, educational!

you are the second person today to post about kidsilk haze and it is making me want some. :P

[identity profile] phinnia.livejournal.com 2008-09-08 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
It's lovely stuff but I'm worried about knitting with it. It's like cobwebs in a ball, you know?
