Long weekend
Tuesday is the 4th of July so, even though I'll be working on Monday, it still feels like a long weekend and I hope to get a lot of non-work stuff done. Yeah, I said that last weekend, too, and look where I am.
For those of you who asked, this is what I've been doing in the past few days.
Downloading music with FrostWire, mainly old Italian cantautori music that I can't find here. Searching for and downloading music per se doesn't take up much time, but if I find something interesting I click Browse Host and get lost browsing other people's files. I find it particularly fascinating to browse gay guys' collections. They have the best stuff: lectures from The Teaching Company, Pimsleur language lessons, great music and a lot of amusingly labeled gay porn. What can I say? I am easily amused.
Knitting a little; I just finished the sock I started on Monday. Not exactly a speed knitter, I know, but I think speed is overrated. I've heard of speed knitting competitions; they are as foreign to me as rap. Hm, maybe I'll start a slow-knitting movement. But someone else has probably done that already.
Reading the text for my linguistics class: Intro to Languages of the World. Still haven't done my homework, though.
Cataloging my circular needles.
The other day I received some circular needle ID tags I had ordered along with some Addi Turbo needles. Now I finally have a quick way to identify the size of my loose needles.
Planning my next package for my Secret Pal (SP8), but I've decided to be more careful about divulging my plans in case my SP has made her way to my blog, so I won't say anything for now.
