whew

didn't think i was gonna make it, but here i am! fully recovered and returned from texas.

returned: the drive was awful, unberable and incredibly long, but i did not have to drug my neice and nephew, not did i kill them. the flight was ok, crazy lady talked my feverish head off (i'll get there in a sec) on the plane. crazy guy talked it off on the buss, but i got home in one piece. unfortunately the pipes weren't in the same condition when i got here...i'll explain later.

recovered: from hideous texas cold bug. damn they say everything in texas is big well they don't brew small viruses i can tell you that! but i'm better now, no help from the stupid doctor lady who yelled at me for coming in when all i had was a cold and for wasting her time, i figure that a bug that hangs on more than a week, destroys my throat and voice, causes crazy high fevers, and results in my ears killing me, that i might actually be sick. but what do i know...

but all is well, i'm back (body and health) and looking forward to snowboarding with the girls, knitting with the girls, (different girls) and if i don't jynx myself... but i may be, just maybe finishing rogue this week. if i don't i'll never get it done once schol starts. so here goes. marathon knitting here i come. just one panic note...i just turned the cuffs under and i'm about a third of the way through the first 2 of 6 balls of mission falls...i'm knitting both sleeves at once on circs...will i make it? yikes. if not i'll just have to find a similar dyelot...ack. how the heck and i gonna do that the stuff is dissappearing like crazy!!! but a little bird told me that they've been bought otut by another mill thats gonna continue the line woo hooooooo!
k, i'm off to listen to a book on cd and knit my heart out!

what do you do

with a beautiful day off? well we went for a "scent"ic drive out to the beach. we being the dog. and me. she loves to stick her nose out the window and smell where we are going. we took a few lonely roads. ok, so maybe like 10 little roads. i make turns at random when i'm not in a hurry. and can you blame me? just check out the view! it really was spectacular. i would love to live out this way! we finally arrived at north beach in point reyes national seashore. they have a few beaches where leashed pets are allowed. i snacked on a quick lunch of tomatoes, figs, raisins, and almonds (from the farmer's market again) then we headed down to the water. my baby is 12 and she's never seen the ocean. i must be a terrible mother or something. she was just staring and staring. she couldn't get enough. after repeatedly chasing and running away from the waves for a half an hour she was content to just sit back and relax on a dune. and then she stood and told me it was ti...
