the radio alarm clock is set for soon.

last sunday a great friend and i went for an impromptu breakfast road trip to quesnel. we hadn't seen eachother in three weeks and it was good to catch up and knit. posting now i realized that it's been exactly a week since my last post and i need to work harder on this one.

this week has been a slap over the head. working full time is exhausting and managing contracts and all my community-related activities on top of that is a lot of work! especially since i'm power a wedding dress out the door and am dealing with serious thesis-lack-of-working-on-it guilt.

i'm pretty much so stressed about my thesis that i'm stressing myself sick and into a hizzy of knitting activity. not something to celebrate really.

rather than ramble i'm going to strap on a hoodie and get my sew on.

with your hook and line i still blow away

today i undertook three more hours of torture. it's really taken it's toll on my body today. i had a nap and couldn't really have a drink at my friend's stagette! so sad. and i came home at 10pm and want to just sleep until 2014.

and for some reason my body is rejecting my labret. i think that i'm sick. boo. must drink more echinacea tea.

consumer whore

okay, so we all know this about myself, and probably everyone else that's on student loan, but when we get it, especially if we've spent a few months prior counting our pennies (ie. not buying much yarn) we blow our student loans on STUFF. Today my list of shit I bought includes yummy groceries, a case of earth balance, a slow cooker, a new cast iron pot for cooking of course, a compost bucket that has a de-scenter on it, and jewellery (above!). oh, and a shit load of yarn and a new noro pattern book! it makes noro look less folky and i love it.

and as of today we've owned our car for exactly one week and used only just under 1/2 a tank and done a lot of driving doing errands and stuff (catch up from when we didn't have a car like recycling and buying things we can't carry on the bus). and it's kind of sickly to me. i kind of wish i had a good bike to ride everywhere right now.

now i must unpack those groceries and go to a board meeting. 'tis the life of ye ol' ohsweetie!
