All around updates.
Sorry for my lack of here-ness. The hubby’s out of town, so I’m holding down the fort solo. And yet, oddly, the house is cleaner when my husband is gone and it’s only me here. Coincidence? I think not.
My daughter’s been very good, and we’ve had fun. I’m so glad she can say “what does that mean?” now. In this way, she’s been able to ask for clarification on subjects such as sleepwalking, millet, and why we have to keep the bathroom door closed when we’re in there. Currently she’s viewing that as “optional” which I’m attempting to change.
Dragonrealms-wise, I spent part of the morning learning the behind-the-scenes GM side of a neat in-game system. One part was flummoxing me, and GM Iayn finally figured out what the dealio was. GMs Ariawen, Maece, and others also chimed in with help, whch was much appreciated. Nifty system. It’s been said before, but I’ll say it again. GM Jeremael was a freakin’ genius and I still miss him.
On the knitting front, I’m hating having instructions to make just “a blue scarf” with no clue of the tastes of the individual. For all I know, she wants fun fur. However, pressing the issue with the recipient is what got me as far as “a blue scarf” and I sense I can’t pursue it any further without making her uncomfortable. Okay, then, blue scarf it is!
I already had some Silky Wool in a periwinkle/blue jean shade that was going to be the Eve scarf for myself. The only picture I’ve got of my progress on that is so blurry that it’s pointless to post. Anyway, based on the four inches I’ve knit of Eve, it will take too long to knit for someone else, so instead I decided to tackle the lace sensation that’s sweeping the nation, Branching Out. Picture to the left.
Jayne hat-wise, hat on the needles for Virginia, then California and Connecticut.
Tonight? Knit more, watch LOST, and wallow in decadence. I made linguine with clam sauce last night, so I’ll have leftovers of that. Then, for dessert?

Yeah, baby!
Jeremael was wondermous, that’s a fact.
Isn’t it fun when kids hit a new stage in their lives? Everything has to be viewed through that different filter, and their whole perceptions can change. They’re wondermous, too.

Oh wow … I think this scarf pattern is even prettier than Tyrathia’s. I’m having covetous moments again. ::grins::

Huh. My mom and I view the “closed bathroom door” as an optional feature too. Except when my stepdad’s around, of course.
When possible, I prefer to sprint from my room to the bathroom in my..err..altogether because it’s inconvenient to have to find a dry spot to hang my clothes when I shower.

Yeah, it’s not a big issue when it’s just her and me, but she does it in others’ homes as well. And in public bathrooms. So we really do have to work on it. 🙂

Hehe. Yeah, THAT would need work… 🙂

Is not! Is SOOOOO not! My scarf is the prettiest! So NYARGH!
I said so. That’s why.
::blows a raspberry at Angel::
It is pretty though. And almost the exact color of the carpeting in my bedroom, if you could see it.
