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?

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...

it's a sad day

for starbucks when a great manager resigns because he's getting too much crap from his boss. a shitton of crap from the guys upstairs and not a whole lot of help. we like to try to set our team up for success. but we don't try to set them up for failure. and that is what has been happening! i'm probably gonna hear something 'cause i'm posting this but it's got to be said. since april i've been working in the second busiest store in central florida. until recently we were beating out all the others in our district. this means we have to work hard. really hard. just to keep up. forget about getting ahead. keeping things shiny clean? no way. shoot for passable. cause you can't really do much else. there's not enough time it is impossible to stay on top. when you're understaffed. when you can't get labor hours. when you have only 2 team members in the store for 2 hours at a time! you barely get things done. and the bosse's boss. well she laid...
