i'm not your second, i'm notchyour third.

tonight i made a curry. it's part of the winter ization of my self and my little home. there's spinach, cauliflower, tofu, yams, onions, and chantrelle mushrooms. it was super spicy. we ate it with yoghurt, rice, corn bread, and indian spicy pickles. and then watched good night and good luck and i continued to knit. i've been knitting a lot this weekend. i just started making knitted wash cloths. yay for xmas!


the boots. my three boots. i love boots. i never had cute boots until last spring or fall or something. now i'm addicted. get me boots! so, yes, task #86. actually buy winter boots and use them is accomplished.


this is my craft area. it's super crammed, but definitely coming along and i enjoy that space.

i have had the opportunity to get closer to some people over the weekend. i've cuddled. i've gotten drunk and smoked cigarettes and shared secrets. and i've knitted! knitting brings the girls together! i'm into my winter music mood and i think my radio show is changing style! just for the winter.

task #11. attend an academic conference out of country and task #80. meet melissa of "girl of the north country"

i'm applying for a graduate gender studies conference in austin texas next april. i'm going to go to nashville too meet the love of my life, melissa.

i'm exhausted. i just can't sleep. it's christmas! well, not really, but soon! starbucks started their xmas roll out and i'm so excited!! yummers! i know it's crazy, but starbucks roll out for me is very xmas time oriented. i'm in a knitting frenzy. i bought some noro yarn for a knitting with some friends and it's beautiful!! i know i'm just recounting my days, but tomorrow we're having our housewarming/winetasting and i'm so excited! i can't believe it's already almost 11pm. that's disgusting. off to knit and watch a movie! yay!

task update: 19 + + +

it's midnight, PST, still summer time. in two hours pretty much the entirety of north america will sleepingly celebrate the addition of one hour to their nightly rest. last night we were up late drinking lovely drinks, listening to jazz, and playing group games. it was nice to have a get together. i feel like i'm recounting my last 24 hours. ha ha.

it's snowing and i'm feeling positively snowed in. i'm getting into the xmas spirit (i love xmas!) and am knitting like mad. but, i thought i could learn to crochet, but NO! it looked like poo. so, i have to figure out the one crochet project i want to do that inspires me to take up this horrible craft i have no pleasure for. i just LOVE knitting. bastards.

so yes, 'tis snowing outside and environment canada says it's gonna snow all night and have a high of 1'C tomorrow. fuckers. i still dont have boots, or a good winter coat. i hope that i can acquire both tomorrow. i spent most of my afternoon walking around in the slush in my maryjanes hoping to find winterboots somewhere, but alas. tomorrow: the bay.

p.s. this picture is ganked from martin. it's not pg. it's jasper still. i'm still there i think.
