So I apparently am sick. Jody and Mikl went away to to Araps, and although I was dissapointed to be missing out I was also looking forward to working really hard so I can get it out of my system and won't feel guilty leaving eary to spend timje with Jody when she gets back. But Nooooo, thats aparently not what fate has in stall for me - apparently I'm to spend two days with the flu and a nose so blocked I can't breathe or (god help me) taste any food.

To ease my pain I purchased a new set of knitting needles, some lilac baby wool, and a book of patterns for booties. Bloody friends having babies - hrumpf. Secretly happy they are as its a great excuse to knit new stuff. As I was in the store checking out the wool the owners dog came over and tried to hump my leg. I feel so violated! I ordered some sock colour too for another friend who wants "bright warm colour" so she feels extra toasty in winter in her socks. Her birthday is soon, so I'd better hurry up, although I think the booties will be quick.

I hope Mikl isn't wearing out Jody too much - he does try to climb a lot at Araps. I also hope Jody is having an awesome time - its so beautiful down there..

I'm trying to make my first sample in the lab today - I hope it works out, I'll get to see the "product" tomorrow. Fingers crossed...
