The evitable inevitable

Well, I had to go and sprain my arm. The timing couldn't have been less perfect if I had tried. Tried really really hard. Anywho, it's in a splint for now. And unless I hear otherwise from the person who reads the x-rays tomorrow, it's just a bad sprain. Ow.

So no more knitting, very little typing, difficulty driving, eating, getting dressed, and basically everything that involves my right hand. Which is everything. Because I am right-handed. Spiffy, hey?

This doesn't explain, however, why I am here. Online. Typing. I can't rationalize it because my wrist hurts like yeah, my homework's not done, and my hubby is peacefully snoring away in our warm and cozy bed. I'd give anything to be able to go to bed at 10:30 every night. Lucky bastard. I keep planning on posting all these really fun pictures I have of everything, but alas, 'tis too much work and I seriously lack motivation. I just want to blather mindlessly on about my life right now.

I can't believe how frusterating it is to be in a situation where I feel isolated. I have absolutely no one that is also female, approximately my age, married, and still finishing up their undergrad degree. They are either preggers or gradumated. It's hard to bitch about married life to someone who's not married. They don't understand and trust me, they don't want to know. Alas.... a conundrum. How to make friends with people that don't exist? Hmmm...

For now, I'll survive. And the next post will bring fun pictures of random stuff. Yay, stuff!

To Make Up for Lost Time...



Here's what you missed: My new puppy, Nate's graduation, our wedding, our honeymoon, and the beginning of another crazy, stressful school year (for me, anywho). I'm even more knitting obsessed and completely and utterly happy with married life.




I ended up with 20 credits this semester through some strange and unplanned circumstances; needless to say, its wayyyy too much to handle. At the moment I'm supposed to be working on my exam that's due tomorrow, finishing my psych test write-up, and studying for the aforementioned psych test. Did I mention it's going to be a really hard psych test? I just want to be done with school, but I'm told that's how quite a few people feel. Not suprised.




I picked up another knitting book today, 101 Designer one-skein wonders, because I really need anything more knitting related. I really really do. Not. There are quite a few cute and quick projects, although some are cheesy and icky looking too.... you have to take the good with the bad, I guess. I'm really looking forward to making two of the hats. I love to knit hats.... I end up giving them away because, well..., I don't wear hats, but that's besides the point. They're so much fun to knit!
I've realized that I don't have the patience or the dedication to knit anything that takes longer than a week to finish.
I'd love to write more, but alas, the homework calls to me. More like screams, but you get the picture.
