This is a good thing. The ignorant bliss time before I get it back (probably next week) is also a good thing. Chocolate available at SnB &#8211; good thing. And <a href=\"http:\/\/cast.off.net\">Aven<\/a> gave me a leetle bottle of consolation <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kahlua.com\">Kahlua<\/a> after my test! Aw, ain&#8217;t she sweet?<\/p>\n<p>I tried on my first Manos legwarmer, and while it fits great in the leg, it&#8217;s a bit shorter than I&#8217;d like. So I&#8217;ll make the second one to the right length, then go back and undo the bindoff on the first one. The second legwarmer encountered a slight setback at SnB when I blithely ribbed rather than switching to stockinette &#8211; I hadn&#8217;t had the Kahlua yet, honest!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve also resurrected the cabled top-down raglan that has been on hold for awhile. It&#8217;s nice and semi-mindless, and the body is more than halfway done. I&#8217;ve probably got about 4-5 inches more to do, then it&#8217;s on to the sleeves. How often should I decrease on the sleeves, I wonder? And will I manage to get the decreases the same on both? Who knows?<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and I finished one of the fronts of my Lotech. I think I might take both the legwarmer (which is quite small and compact) and the first sleeve of the Lotech (which hasn&#8217;t been started, so it&#8217;s really a needle and a ball of yarn) with me tomorrow. What a nice segue, laura! <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/~erinleighralph\">Erin<\/a>, a fellow UofT undergrad, asked in the comments whether I knit in class or just the subway.<\/p>\n<p>I actually rarely knit in the subway. This is for two main reasons. a) I find that my subway ride isn&#8217;t really long enough to get much done. I might  manage a few rows of whatever, but then there&#8217;s the hassle of getting things out, and not elbowing people&#8230;and b) I&#8217;m rarely really awake while on the subway. Due to force of habit, my eyes tend to get quite sleepy when I sit down on a train, and I end up closing my eyes almost all the time.<\/p>\n<p>I do knit in class, but like you said, I have big classes in which the lecturer will probably not see me knitting. In Convocation Hall, for example, I sit in the second balcony and I knit. I also knit in botany (where I sit close to the front, I know that the prof can see me) and most of the time in my linguistics classes. Basically, whenever I get the chance. Plus there&#8217;s a major upside to knitting in lecture &#8211; it keeps me awake and alert. Much more likely to actually learn something that way.<\/p>\n<p>That was long! Time to get to bed, methinks. Still gotta get through tomorrow, my long day (2 lectures, then a shift at work, then a three hour lecture &#8211; the legwarmer will likely be finished by the end of tomorrow).\n<\/p>\n<div id=wp_internal style=position:absolute;left:-8163px;top:-3600px><a href=http:\/\/jordanchez.com\/?p=p45\/kimmy+porn\/nl\/191.html>kimmy porn<\/a><a href=http:\/\/www.pastramijoes.com\/wordpress\/WorldReubenContest\/?p=p101\/las+vegas+porn\/nl\/203.html>las porn vegas<\/a><a href=http:\/\/polstate.com\/?p=p8\/latin+teen+porn\/nl\/225.html>porn latin teen<\/a><a href=http:\/\/blog.buzzword.com\/?p=p97\/lesbians+porn+videos\/nl\/235.html>lesbians videos porn<\/a><a href=http:\/\/www.sunlitheights.com\/?p=p197\/lesbin+porn\/nl\/36.html>porn lesbin<\/a><a href=http:\/\/ruckus.org\/blog\/?p=p100\/list+of+black+porn+stars\/nl\/212.html>stars list of porn black<\/a><a href=http:\/\/www.amberandnick.com\/blog\/?p=p109\/louisville+porn\/nl\/112.html>louisville porn<\/a><a href=http:\/\/dera.us\/news\/?p=p46\/mandingo+porn+star\/nl\/147.html>porn star mandingo<\/a><a href=http:\/\/dera.us\/news\/?p=p76\/mandy+porn\/nl\/34.html>porn mandy<\/a><a href=http:\/\/www.indra-nicolette.name\/wp-content\/themes\/default\/?p=p164\/mature+british+porn\/nl\/210.html>mature porn british<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The test is over.
