School Daze!

Well, it's finally arrived! Today is my first day of school at San Jose State University's online MLIS program. I've been checking out the syllabus and getting to know my fellow classmates and peer mentor via the bulletin board, and I have to say, I love it already. There's just something about being in school that agrees with me. It makes an otherwise dreary day pretty cool.

So I finally finished all of my holiday knitting - and promptly neglected to take pictures of any of it. Gah! But it's done, and the recipients all seemed happy with their goodies. Mike's grandmother and great-aunts loved their socks, and the kidlings gifties were happily received by the parents. So did I take a 6-month knitting hiatus like I swore I'd do? Nope. Cast on a pair of Nutkin socks with some of my bamboo yarn. The heel is driving me a bit insane, but otherwise, these are beautiful and I can't wait to get them on my tootsies.

I haven't been spinning since my first few sorry attempts, but I'm hoping to get together with my PretPlurk knitters soon to remedy that. I haven't been on Plurk in so long, my karma is probably zippo. I'll deal.

Just a quick update for now, but more to come, I'm sure...
