fake isle hat WIP
Made from this stuff (the Noro I talked about in the last post):
I need to get started on finishing Rob's b-day present instead of knitting. But still kinda tired from lack of sleep. Also low energy since I didn't do yoga this week. It is always tricky to stick to doing yoga when I'm PMSy, and picking it back up again is not easy. At least I have a little more energy today than yesterday. Yesterday I dozed off during class. Getting to bed earlier needs to be more of a priority. Especially as my classes get more demanding. I bought some caffeine mints at Best Buy today after dinner at Penang's (they have this amazing lychee jelly drink!). I also got a haircut. Now it's all undamaged split free hair that I'm really happy with, and a bit more manageable. The ends were all sun-bleached and splitty. So much better now.
A little sad because I had to throw away one of my African violet plants. The crown of it was all bunchy, and it was growing suckers all over the place; which means it either had mites or a fungal infection or something. Not worth waiting and letting it spread to the other plants. The other two AVs are doing great though, the magenta one I bought keeps flowering like crazy! After 2-3 weeks the flowers it had are still just as vibrant. The pale violet one has begun to flower, and looks to be alright. I also took a cutting of the bad plant a few weeks ago, hoping that it might sprout a new plantlet. If it works out it'll have dark purple flowers... *hopes*. I've been following this tutorial: Starting AVs 101 It seems to be thriving; I'll know if it makes it in another 7 weeks.
Rob has been wanting to _do more stuff together_. I better get on that. Perhaps some Diablo 2 or something? We had so much fun a couple weeks back playing through Castle Crashers on the 360. When it comes to games I just don't have a "stick to it" feeling. I'll enjoy playing, but there's never a craving to play more afterward. Gotta make an effort. Whee.
