they wanted to know if we could get away...yeah, we backed it up and we made our great escape
there is a no fun scary thunderstorm going on...and the house is making funny noises. gah. I'm half scared and then half laughing at myself for being scared when I know that everythings ok.
also, though, my sister christina is in Ravena with the rest of my family, and I am lonely and very sad that I don't get to see her...she's living in Montana, so her visits are always long-anticipated. I knew she'd be coming when I decided to live in DC for the summer, but still...they're all together and I'm not, and that hits me. Christina's visits are always so much fun, and I love to see that girl. Generally, I'm on the other end of this sort of thing.
but, on the bright side, theres a really fun magnetic toy thing by the computer. so, you win some, you lose some. :)
I finished this lace sweater wrap that I've been working on for the past month or two...all except the neckband, for which I have to work a total of 88 inches in 1x1 rib over 13 stitches [clearly this is not something that I designed...I think I'm going to mostly give up working from patterns from here on out, unless its something I really love] But I'm also making up as I go along a pattern for a black cotton cabled tank top, so that I don't die of boredom. and it is lovely.
I wish brian were back from england. because the atlantic ocean severly limits his ability to entertain me, and I don't really know any one else in DC to hang out with at all hours. alas. he'll be back soon enough.
I've been reading like crazy lately, and its quite nice. yeah...all in all things are very good. Its just strange to find myself wanting to be home now, for this week when christina's here, when generally all I try to do is get away from that town. I was telling melissa, I wish there was a way to get away from the negative aspects and conotations of Ravena while keeping my family nearby, and the other positive things that are in that area. its a strange balance to try and strike.
eek. I need sleep.
love and love.
when I speak I cross my fingers
will you know you've been decieved?
I find the need to be the demon
A demon cannot be hurt
