Re: QM - SPQR
How are you today, Magpie? I've spent the morning unraveling a failed knitting project and now trying to decide what to do with the yarn.

Re: QM - SPQR
I just got back from Manu's place - spent the weekend talking about stories, trying to find a café for NaNoWriMo write-ins, and winding yarn into balls - I have space in my yarn box again, yay! No time to knit, though, not until December.

I have about 2 dozen boxes for yarn. If I ever run out of room, go ahead and send in a rescue team.

Two dozen...?
Oh wait, I have over hundred plants. I shouldn't talk.
Actually, I really shouldn't talk, but go to bed.

Next project - toe-up socks with a provisional cast-on. The thought of a seamless toe appeals to me.

Re: QM - SPQR
I has begun research on my essay. I'm analysing the effects Irans nuclear weapons program has on regional and global security in the face of growing opposition.
Not a complicated topic at all... :S

Re: QM - SPQR
Augh. Computer is making very strange sounds - wanted to write a bit before work, but instead I'm continuing with the monstrous task of backing up everything (which, luckily, I started last week). *worries*

Re: QM - SPQR
Gah. And thanks to this, I've now forgotten to make myself some tea to bring to work. *shivers*

Re: QM - SPQR
No tea is bad!
I assume its especially bad in a European winter where you guys have that frozen water stuff that falls out of the sky instead of rain.

Re: QM - SPQR
Yeah, I know the feeling. Waiting to hear from a recruiter, waiting to hear back from Oracle about my exam (which I'm pretty sure I failed two months ago), trying to get some code to work...

No progress at all today. I spent all of today trying to find out how that stupid repository is supposed to be working. Or rather how the search functionality is supposed to work.
And now I'm hungry and grumpy.

It's not quite that cold yet, but it can be decidedly uncomfortable already. Last week, the shop (where I sit during my lunchbreak) had about 13°C. 16 or 17 if I remembered to close the door half an hour before my break, and open the door to the warmer greenhouse.
Luckily, it was quite warm today. And there were customers. Who gave tips.

Re: QM - SPQR
Yay for tips!
I've been fed in the mean time, but the hunger isn't quite gone. The reason? No candy at all today. My body is telling me that it doesn't like the reduction in sugars. But my scales tell me it's necessary.

Re: QM - SPQR
I'm frantically sorting through my photos. I want work on a story, but I want to finish this first, because my computer is making weird sounds, and everything needs to be backed up, and I don't really want backup copies of crappy pictures.
*glares at computer*
I just had to buy a new printer, so don't you dare stop working, too!

Re: QM - SPQR
And now my monitor is making popping sounds. What is this, the self-destruction mechanism because the warranty has run out?
