It's Thursday...
....so it's time for a KAL report.
Sockapaloooza
I'm going to be a sockapalooser...I'm so freaking slow. I'm still slogging along on the foot of Sock #1. What's taking up my time?
AWARD CEREMONIES.
I've been here for 5 years and this year was the big "whiz-bang-you're-great" year for me. Don't get me wrong--I'm not knocking recognition. I'm flattered and all. Really. I am. But this week I've had 3 events to attend. I'm writing. And I just don't seem to have the time or the mental capacity to knit LACE socks (even though the lace is wicked simple) AND go to these events AND work on my dissertation*. Sigh.
Back to the socks. I'm not giving up. I'm not going to be late, by jingo. I'm just kvetching a bit.
Other KAL
Am I in any others? Oh, yeah, the Sock of the Month. Well, you see how that's going.
Other Thursday Business
Thanks for all the loverly compliments on my sweater. I like it quite a bit myself.
OK...enough chitterchatter. Back to the salt mines for me.
*The diss business was mucked up mightily this week, courtesy of Microsoft (of course) and a buggy security patch (gah!) that rendered all of my MS Office software teh stupid for several days. All is repaired now, but I was really raging for a few days. Really. Ask Ruth or Tina.
