all it took was love to not get caught

elizabeth hat #1 for whomever, gifted to theresa
this past two weeks have been a total whirlwind. my mom was here (good times, i can't believe i didn't take any pictures!!), i worked on a huge funding proposal for work that in the end fell through, i didn't miss a single derby practice, worked on my thesis, and knit knit knit knit knit. above is the elizabeth hat courtesy of Jane Richmond (of vancouver island! woop!). i knit it but didn't really like the pattern on my head. i think if i did have a bulkier yarn and a bigger needle it would've fit. but alas. regardless, i was able to make two hats out of one skein of kochoran, both that look very different and both gifted on. their glowing halos are beautiful.

yesterday afternoon/last night/this morning i've been working on my thesis. research, research, research. the march 31st deadline is scary, but i'm confident i can make it. i even only have three books i haven't yet skimmed/read to make some headway into and then spend the rest of the week making my chapters pretty then next weekend scanning the rest of my images (i need a pro-mac scanner hookup, any suggestions? free ones?? i might just go to ems at school bleck). and here in a little bit we're going to the camelot(cameltoe we've affectionately called it) to have brunch with mishy then i have more research, house cleaning/tidying, and roller derby. yesh. tonight we're making homemade burgers. i'm pretty excited since we rarely eat homemade burgers. anyway, i'm rambling. i'm going to go work on a new sock for a little bit and get ready more so for my day!! xo
