Have you ever tripped and then, in trying to get up, tripped again? That’s how I’ve been feeling lately. I’m not entirely sure what’s causing it; I think I’ll just blame the fact there’s only something like 3 weeks left to school and only 2 major things left to turn in (my final XML project is due 12/8 and my final collection development paper is due 12/11).

Knitting amazingly enough has been occuring. I have moved off onto a couple of Christmas projects (go ahead laugh… it is funny cause I’ve never really been inclined to knit Christmas gifts before). One is the Homespun afghan I’m knitting for my mom; I work on it in front of the TV at night. The other is a Clapotis for my mother-in-law that I’ve only sort of worked on. It will be my Thanksgiving knitting since we’re going to be heading down to Monterey tomorrow to spend the holiday with my parents. It also shouldn’t take too long to make since I’m changing the dimensions to make it slightly smaller (my mother-in-law is 5 foot tall and I don’t have the yardage called for in the pattern).

Now, I have to go find my new nearby cube neighbor cause something in his cube makes a beeping noise about every five minutes, and it’s going to drive me batty.
