KNITTING: I've started the Felted Daypack in the Winter 2004 Interweave Knits. I'm making it out of Lite-Lopi. The pattern says to use a size 8 circular, but when I gathered all my stuff together to start it last night I decided I didn't like my size 8 circ. I'm using a size 7 instead. I haven't bothered with a gauge swatch. Stay tuned for disaster when I finally realize why casually switching needles and ignoring gauge isn't a good idea.
LATIN: Some kind soul posted a list of Simon Says commands in Latin on the Latin Classical Ed list. Now I can pretend (fleetingly) to be a fun mom. Well, I can pretend to be a fun mom insofar as teaching Latin is concerned. I'm planning on weaseling out of going to homeschool swim this afternoon, so I'll be retaining my overall No Fun title.
ASTRONOMY: I found this cool site about astronomy observation last night: Star-Hunting Party . I found it on someone else's blog. Whose, you ask? Ummm, well, umm (lowers head, kicks toe in dirt) I sorta forget ... I sorta clicked on it from TheDenimJumper.com, but I forget exactly who it was.
CARDS: I need to go play Old Maid right now. Other pearls of wisdom will have to wait.

His philosophy was a mixture of three famous schools – the Cynics, the Stoics and the Epicureans – and summed up all three of them in his famous phrase, “You can’t trust any bugger further than you can throw him, and there’s nothing you can do about it, so let’s have a drink.”

About Me
- GailV
- I am quite average. Except for my height. And weight. And my TV viewing habits are sort of odd. And the general cluelessness about contemporary pop culture that flows from that lack of TV viewing. And let's not even get started about the way we eat around here, what with allergies and all, there's no way that's average. And then there's the whole homeschooling business ....

For the record, I used to have my occupation listed as "providing lap for cats", but now that they're shedding so much for spring I've decided it's time to move on. Not to mention that "providing lap for cats" made my butt sound big. There are layers of meaning within these blogs, but I'm sure IUPUI pointed that out; they must be used to layers of meaning, what with being both IU and PU.
