Rheinbeck
This weekend was so hellish that whatever horrible stress I went through earlier this week, that I had devised a whole post about, is completely gone from my memory. Vanished. Gone. Essentially the problem was that I wanted to go to Rheinbeck (9 hours from Buffalo) with Katie, and we had planned on it like two months in advance, then my professor ( Read more... ) -
Things we talked about at work yesterday
Done like I take my notes for college.
1. Knitting
- Rhinebeck Sheep & Wool festival next weekend!
- how knitters will think something is horribly ruined because one mistake is visible, and nobody else can even see said mistake.
--- the time I messed up on the faggoting of a lace scarf
2. Whether or not we would get in trouble for saying the word " ( Read more... ) -
still alive
See the icon? Just like that.
Last week was so stressful for me that my friends reported headaches and nausea after hearing about it. So I will spare you the gory details. Suffice to say that the only one negatively impacted other than me was kick_flaw , who kindly let me use her printer until 2 am last Wednesday.
School is so much work, that going to work ( Read more... ) -
for anyone
(from cairnsy )
To the first five people who comment to this post, I will gift you with something of my own crafting. It may be an icon, a manip, a drawing, a ficlet, or something completely random. You may love it or you may think it sucks, but regardless, it will be made with love for you from me. ;) Feel free to give me a hint of what you might like ( Read more... ) -
Mumford and Sons
kick_flaw got me addicted to this band, whose genre is "British folk rock." It's sort of a cross between rock and bluegrass. I like them so much I actually legally downloaded three of their songs!
This song makes me think of Inception -- "Take all the courage you have left, wasted on fixing all the problems that you made in your own head." But then, I ( Read more... ) -
Dying is fine
On the subject of fall, again. Various people don't like fall, because they say it's all about death. Not so! Winter, I can agree, is death, or sleep. But fall is more about dying, which is totally different, and so for that I'll share one of my favorite poems by E. E. Cummings:

Fall fell
Autumn in New York is undeniably gorgeous. The subtle shift from warm summer to the trees turning gold and red, then the days begin to take on a crispness about them. You begin to wear a light jacket and crave apples and soup and cider. And then the sky greys, you pull out your wool coat and bring a scarf, the trees are barren and finally every ( Read more... ) -
i'll need a new icon
Once I locate my camera, I'll treat you all to a picture of my new haircut! Finding a suitable icon will be tricky though, it's not just like Nabiki's anymore. More like Lavie from Last Exile, or Amelie (whose photograph I showed the stylist). -
Fall
Fall is well on its way, if the number of times I've been rained on in the last week is any indication. And classes have started, which means my diet needs a nutritious kick in the pants if I don't want to live a life of stress and panic. Stress and panic! And it was necessary to restock myself on tea, since if I had a coffee every time I got in a ( Read more... )
