Done with two commissions, waiting for instructions on a third, and possibly, woefully bowing out of another (we'll talk, popefelix , tomorrow, in person)-- I found myself with a few days of no pending request. So I made myself a project with some spare yarn -- a project I have been wanting to make for a while. I now have a scarf that is to my length-liking, made of ridiculous yarn that no...

That's it, though. I've told the roomie, who is going to tell the landlord to get an exterminator out. And this evening, I'm...

So yesterday was a pretty full day, compounded by the fact that I'm still wheezy, and that I had done something (while sitting down and playing KURS, mind you!) to my right ankle the night before, to the point where it was stiff and painful to walk on.
