Happy holidays!
I was delighted by this year's Google Santa Tracker. First of all, it's really way too much fun, what with all the games and cute animations and stuff.
Second of all, the list made me LOL.
Take a real good look at the top of that list, Leviathan fans.
HA!
Also, merry Christmas and heri za Kwanzaa!
I got a new set of tools, to replace what I disparagingly refer to as the "pretty pretty princess tool playset" someone gave me when I bought my home. (It's functional, but just barely, and all the tools are Barbie pink. I'm not against pink, as a rule, but effecting repairs with a dainty pink hammer is not empowering.) I felt like a STEM role model, opening the boxes and being like, "A 30-piece socket wrench set! OMG, I love it!!" And my mom got me a sweet "Thirteen Notes" t-shirt from Bear McCreary's website. Maybe I'll use my new tools to build a Cylon!
Speaking of crafting, I've knit a hat and finished two scarves so far on my vacation, and I'm working on finishing an infinity cowl that I abandoned a few months ago. I gotta get through this yarn hoard - it's taking over my living room.
And I earned my blue belt! That's the last of the "intermediate belts". Next up are the advanced belts: brown, then red, senior red, and junior black. Barring any unforeseen delays, I'll test for black in about a year and a half. Craziness!
Oh, and -
Happy New Year!
