I just found a new source of entry titles. Big win.
Being Wednesday, it seems appropriate for a What's On Your Needles Wednesday kind of thing.
Here are my two go-to projects of the moment:
Like any knitting DW fan, I am making a must-have scarf. Based on Four's season 12 scarf. It's about five or so feet long at this point. I'm just about half way finished with it. Blocked it'll probably end up being about 15 feet long.
I love cowls. And I love green, So really, this project is perfect. And ohmygoodness is this yarn amazing to knit with. Classic Elite Yarns Wool Bam Boo. It is so so so silky soft. I wish it wasn't summer so that I could wear this (when I finish it).

p.s. I got an awesome new ring and I love it to bits.
It's called "Music Ring" and it's made by MarieCarter. I adore her stuff. She custom made this to my specifications and it only took four days to get to me from when I clicked "submit" to when it was in my mailbox. How awesome is that? Very.
Check out what I made today:
Why yes, it is the OS Leopard background with a TARDiS. Why not?
And on that note, here is what's on my needles on this glorious What's On Your Needles Wednesday:
1) Nora Gaughan's Brea Bag, 2) International Sock of Doom #1, 3) Non-Lopi Scarf (as seen in a previous entry). Wicked (sweater) and a few other small things aren't here because they're on hold. I have cast-on-itis. It's bad.
As far as the thesis goes ... chapter 2 is on page 15 and I'm still talking about the first theme. I have two more to go, and then a whole other analytical chapter! And perhaps another one after that. What's wrong with me?
And just to wrap things up, I'm going to try one of those Quote of the Day things.
What do you do when you get a crush on someone?
I rarely crush on anyone, because as Bender so eloquently put it: "Emotions are dumb and should be hated." Sometimes I wish I'd crush on someone, but 99% of the time I remember how frustrating it is and I don't really have time for that. Ouch.

First and foremost, Charlie has taken over my chair.
It's now called "Charlie's Chair." Whenever I'm not sitting in it, he is. And when I am, he sits on my lap. I'm not complaining, that's for sure.
I missed the whole "What's on your needles Wednesday" thing. Well, I didn't know it existed until ... today. Soooooo here is a belated WOYNW post. Right now I'm working on a hat.
It's a generic tam pattern, knit with worsted weight yarn. I want it to be a bit slouchier (and I have a big head I guess) so I'm knitting it up on US8 needles, instead of US7. While procrastinating on Ravelry I found a butterfly stitch, so I stuck one on there. It looks a bit lonely, so I may add some embroidered butterflies after I finish knitting up the rest. The yellow is obnoxious and I love it.
Unrelated: straight As this semester, aww yeah. That's three in a row! My MA gpa is a 3.95. Not too shabby. I got one lousy B in a 2 credit class because the professor refused to round up a 89.83% to an A. Thanks.
