That Can't Be Comfortable

I'm so asleep I can't hear you lalalala......

This was taken while she was snoozing on a cardboard box on top of another cardboard box on top of a wardrobe. She likes it up there. And by golly she looks adorable while she's at it.

I'm still feeling grotty today. A normal person would say "oops, I'm sick!" and take the day off. I, on the other hand, would a) go to work, b) go to the gym, c) do a full workout, and d) walk home from the gym. I am obviously a) incredibly stubborn, b) even more stubborn than that, c) pigheaded, and d) a moron.

I am knitting, I swear! But it's kind of boring knitting. I want to learn more stitches, cabling, bobbles, etc, so I'm doing squares for an afghan, sampling one stitch on each square. I'm kind of enjoying this slow, plain knitting after the Olympic Shawl Incident, but it doesn't make for terribly pretty pictures!

I thought I'd throw in a Dave quote, inspired by Tink's magnificent Hoop Conversations: This one occurred when we were on our way into ChadstonetheFashionCapital.

*Dave beeps the car in front for not immediately noticing the arrow is green*
Dave: I shouldn't have done that!
Me: Why?
Dave: I was just being impatient and rude! I should only beep people if I absolutely have to.
*pause*
Dave: Or if they're dickheads.

Good thing for the day: I am about to achieve going to bed early!!
Bad thing for the day: My stepfather is hurting right now. There was a death in his family, and it happened in a way that is tremendously difficult to deal with. My stepfather is just about the sweetest man alive, and it's unfair that this should have happened.
