socks

I got my Cascade fixation in the mail yesterday from Simply Sock Yarn Company and both colors are exactly what I wanted. I hid them on the shoe shelf in our closet, not from Michael, but from the puppy, who is still convinced most things are toys.
I turned the heel on my second Jaywalker last night, so I am just chugging away at the gusset decreases before I can speed down the foot. I have so many socks I want to knit, but I am making myself finish this pair first.

better

Today is a lot better, less stressful, and more enjoyable. My classics midterm went okay I think. There were a few curveballs he threw at us, but for the most part, I knew what I was talking about.
I am eagerly awaiting more yarn in the mail. I need to find my card reader so I can upload pictures of knitting and yarn. There is a sock yarn explosion happening in my stash right now.
Also, my cats are in love:

classics

I just want to smash my printer right now because I am supposed to work on memorizing a map of ancient greece but this stupid thing keeps printing everything backwards and I just want to climb into a big comfy chair and work on a sock.

well...

He mentioned the book again.

BAHHHH

Professor Brands has mentioned writing a book about Ben Franklin in every lecture we have had.
"In my book about Ben Franklin..."
"I wrote a book about him..."

I will probably hang myself in class, Airplane style, if he mentions it again. Today, this is how he started class:
"Well, let's get started. I wrote a book about Ben Franklin a few years ago..."

Now what gets me, and in turn makes me want to hang myself, is that the man has written a few dozen books. Why the obsession with this one book???
