These two afghan squares are for a large afghan blanket being assemble for a friend of mine. They may not know of the blanket yet, so I’m withholding the details for the moment.

This is my first official “complete” sock! The pattern is currently being test-knit, so I’ll share details once the pattern goes live.

I keep meaning to take better pictures in better lighting, but I think I left the sock over at HCW when I worked on Saturday. Oops! I’ll be picking it up on Thursday when I go in for First Thursday. Not sure what the sale will be yet, hopefully something good. I have a $50 gift card to spend thanks to my amazing mom! Hooray for moms buying yarny things as birthday presents! Happy birthday me!
I feel this strange urge to update this thing. The semester is finally over and grades are trickling in (A- and A so far, one more to go that’ll probably be a B). Lots of rehearsals this week, as the choir I’m in is singing at Commencement on Saturday. I had no idea that many songs about Texas existed.
Anyway.
I’ve been slowly trucking along on some of the knitting I have going. I went to LA a few weekends ago (in the midst of finals, because I’m smart like that) and took my mom’s Lace Ribbon Scarf with me. The color is turning out to be a bit boring, which is bumming me out. But I wanted something that could go with lots of different outfits/colors, so I went with a neutral silver/greyish color. If I can get my pictures to work I’ll share a few. You can always look at my flickr stuff too.
And just to keep the music vid thing going, here is one of my all-time favorite music moments from Scrubs. Grab some tissues.

Did I mention that I’m working on an article about Star Trek?
With all of Amy Singer‘s talk about ukuleles on Twitter/etc I feel compelled to share this little clip from Scrubs 507, “My Way Home,” the 100th episode of the series directed by Zach Braff.
I suppose I’m on an I LOVE SCRUBS kick right now. I admit that I’m getting a bit nostalgic as the series comes to a close. I’ve been really happy with season 8, particularly THE RETURN OF THE TOTALLY GORGEOUS SCOTT FOLEY. omg. His eyes are just … *ahem* anyway. I also really love The Blanks and Sam Lloyd’s voice. And their covers of pop tunes. Oh yes, there is an article on the music of Scrubs already in the works. I’ll be finishing it up this summer hopefully. I love genre blurring. It makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.
