Exercise

I did 10 minutes on the elliptical. Okay, so that's not really even worth mentioning. But considering I sat on my ass all summer? It's a start. I probably should've started preparing for the hill more than 2 weeks before I go off to college...but every little bit helps! I'm going to do some crunches and then lift some weights and probably call it a day. I've lost a ton of weight this summer--I think I had a growth spurt. I'm a bit taller and I grew out, hah, while losing about 20 pounds. (Noticeable to where someone who hadn't seen me all summer was a bit shocked when they saw me.) HAS to be a growth spurt, because I'm the queen of fast food 3 meals a day. =]

My dad keeps getting onto me about packing for college..I don't know what he wants me to start packing. I've got my books together, and all that's left besides that is mainly clothes--and yarn. Not sure what he expects me to do there.

Guess I should scrounge up some lunch and then working on joining my second skein of Cotton Twist.

Don't bother, angel. I know exactly what goes on.

As soon as I finish this row I start on the pattern for the cami. No more ribbing, yay. (Though I did have it memorized, thanks to my stitch markers.)

I'm having fears that this won't actually fit. I'm trying to prepare myself for that if it happens. Visions of myself offering it to my roommate... Ow. I'm sure it'll fit, and I know it's negative ease, but still. Just a little worrying.

I should be getting some good stuff in the mail this week. 2 skeins of Elsebeth Lavold Silky Wool--pink and blue skeins. Mm. I can't wait. Heard so much good stuff about it. Also, some various sizes of dpns should be here in the next few days. I love Ravelry so much. Never would've gotten any of this stuff. The book Greed should  be here in a couple of days too, along with Science of the Prettiest and The Six Wives of Henry VIII. SO much good reading to do. =]
