tooooooooosday

so tuesday is pint night at the walnut in boulder. and on wednesday's my quantum homework is usually due. so...i did a ton of work today trying to finish homework. an dmy brain melted so further coherence has been ruled out. :) i had lab this morning. and we set up an experiment thats supposed to test experimentally the concept of fourier interference. if you're felling a little confused you're not the only one. i was totally lost but after 4 hours of playing with a laser, and a bunch of lenses, and a slide with a tiny picture of a horse we were able to flip the little picture of the horse onth wall upside down and backwards... isn't that great??? yeah anyway. that was my day. oh and then after 5 hours of homework one of the girls and i went for a beer. :) and now i'm thinking i'll knit. but that was my day! somebody remind me again why i'm studying physics??? oh yeah cause i'm almost done...right...93 days and counting...


SockpalOOOza thoughts
so i've been daydreaming about what i want to knit now that i'm thinking about color you know...and i've been thinking, maybe jaywalker but i'd kinda like to do something different or maybe something in a feather and fan. i like the movement of those you know. but what i've really been thinking is what about an adaptation of the wavy scarf on knitty...ooooooo...that would be neat. i mean it is ribbing right? i bet it would work. hmmmmm. thinking thinking. if you have any great ideas let me know. but i'm sure i'll come up with something fun :)

I finally have your yarn all picked out! From what I see around your blog, I think you will like it. Now to decide on a pattern. . . . Did you decide on a color for your sock pal's socks yet?

i actually haven't decided on a color yet i thought i'd wait til the yarn gets here to decide for sure. and there's always the chance it won't turn out how i like. just have to keep my fingers crossed. eyyyyyyyyyyeee yarn picked out and everything? the suspense is killing me!

knitting updates

ok, now for a knitting update :) i know thats what you really wanted to see. here are the contents of the sockpalOOOza package that goes out in one week. i am so excited! counterclockwise from lower left: there is a sock tote for her to use the next time she knits a pair of socks, the socks, postits. my favorite way to mark patterns, a card telling her all about her socks, a postcard of longs peak to show where i'm from, a birthday card fror her to share with a knitting friend on a special day, and stitch markers. yeay! i love presents! i can't wait to mail this! and on to current knitting... so a few weeks ago i went down to highlands ranch for the Littleton meetup, i went next door to string to do a yarn exchange. thats like free yarn you know. and picked up 7 balls of this elsabeth lavold sily wool. ooooh. wonderful yarn! i know, there are only 4 in the photo. thats because my italy cardigain is well under way. 2 balls in i just stared the third and i love love love this y...
and a last farewell...before i ripped out sunrise circle i took a parting photo...this sweater was jus tnot meant to be. too many other things wanted to be finished first. soon to come the bad penny 2 that i'm making for my trip to italy!

so much to do!

with only a few days to relax. a trip to the beach turns into a blur of "i just want to sit here" mixed with "but we have to do this too" so several days worth of photos divided into day parts. cause really it is all running together :) think sandra bullock from that movie premonition where the days are out of order...but nobody's gonna die. sunrise: over the ocean. after waking up early not feeling well from a late night out with the family. i took one for the team ad finished the wine...don't do that. not good. i ran the 2 blocks to the boardwalk and over the dunes to the water to get these couple of shots. seagulls and beachcombers are your only company when it's this early! i've never seen so many mussel shells when it wasn't after dinner. midday: on the boardwalk. after the beach you go to the boardwalk to grab lunch at mack and mancos. apparently the best pizza ever. i'm not convinced. but heck i don't really get the wa...
