Pondering aloud

Nov 21, 2008 15:08

During my confinement I will have a week's worth of time to kill.  The problem will be how to keep myself busy as doing nothing will quickly descend into insane gibbering.  I am a voracious reader so will quickly run out of books, can only do a certain number of crosswords before becoming bored (no matter how much I love them) and certainly can't do endless rounds of chandra & surya namaskar.

Won't be able to be near people and will be leaving little radioactive smudge marks wherever I go so have to make sure anything I touch is cleaned thoroughly.  Keyboards and thus the internet won't be an option.

In addition to yoga and meditation, reading, and crossword solving, should I also learn how to knit?  The needles and resulting (possibly rather munted) creations would be able to be thoroughly washed (removing the radiation issue), I am sufficiently unco-ordinated that it will keep my attention for some time and the implements should be sturdy enough to withstand being thrown across the room when I become frustrated with my own incompetence.

Further contemplation is required.
