As part of the ongoing drama of my psychotic need to read ten millions blogs and sites in a certain *way* I have yet again switched RSS readers. Netvibes was nice, and I liked how I could read a blog on its original page, but it hadn't been super functional lately, and then they said that offensive thing that got me all angry, and well, I left. Now I'm with Pageflakes and I'm enjoying that thoroughly. I have all my ten million knitting blogs arranged on their own little tab, and I'm really trying, in the interest of time management, to just leave them be. But the thing is, I need them to be alphabetized. And in three columns of equal length. This is insane, I know, but this is what I need. And it takes a lot of time, ya know?
In the meantime, I'm trying desperately to finish up the end of the school year and the LAST CLASSES REQUIRED FOR MY PHD!!! After that only like, ten million more years! But they won't be spent in classrooms, for the most part.
Not much knitting since the burst of cowls. I've been trying to finish up my raspy, but it's just too freaking hot lately, even for cotton, and it turns out knitting while writing a paper is kind of a sham, and it just consists of knitting, no writing.

I'll see you all on the other side, hopefully with two papers down. (And a couple incompletes to go, but we can celebrate after the two papers, right?)
I say celebrate after the two papers…it will help motivate for what is yet to come!
