Some time to myself... (?)

I spent last weekend helping some folks from work paint beautiful furniture for our new building. Then Friday night I went to a work retreat and got home last night. I have to go to work tomorrow, so this RIGHT NOW is my time for myself. I went to the farmer's market, reconnected with an old friend, and am now surfing the old web through one of my favorite lenses... knitting.

Knitters are some of the most savvy folks on the web, and I've been reading about how to knit two socks at once, how to knit secret messages into things AND that an angora rabbit can allow you to spin your own angora yarn... which is just a crazy thing to think about. Maybe I want an angora rabbit, I think. Maybe I should knit secret messages into two socks that I could knit at the same time. Then I remember the cats and their feelings about non Pelowok mammals. I remember that I've never actually knit a sock and that I'm working on a sweater and a hat right now. THEN I remember that I sat down to print out a coupon for the local gym because I am still trying to find a reliable way to exercise without hurting THE FOOT. I also remember that I've been cutting down on caffeine and that second cup today clearly is doing some serious damage to my attention span. The truth is I know that this is my only time to recharge myself, and I don't want to spend it sifting through the interwebs and YET here I am, doing just that.

So, to the gym, and then home for cooking and soccer, and then another busy week. This one is filled with more meetings for my job, Zombie movies, a musical and some other damn stuff... and then my own personal solitary vacation starts next Sunday.

whew. I'll be READY.
