Up early because I told Heather I'd give her a lift to work today (her car wouldn't pass inspection, and the plates are expired, so she's sort of fucked til she can it temp registered/find something else). Wouldn't be up quite so early, but Zed called me and I have to be up in an hour anyway, so here we are.

My classes are going really well. I got a 92 on my Inorganic exam (one of the highest scores in the class), and I really love PChem. I hate bio, but that's to be expected, and I only need one semester of it, so oh well, I'll manage.

I've finally figured out how to crochet. I've been making granny squares. My initial plan was to make enough to turn into a scarf (ten or so small ones and chain them together), but now I'm kind of debating making enough to do an afghan. I didn't realize how fast they come together (it takes about fifteen minutes to do one), and I love how mindless they are. I have a bunch of black blocks made already, and it would be easy enough to find yarn in a similar weight in white . . . I guess we'll see. The ones I'm crocheting now are a medium-weight acrylic blend. Ideally I'd be doing something in cotton (I love the texture of cotton yarn), but the blend I have right now is nice. It's easy to work with, too, which is a definite bonus. If I do turn it into an afghan, I'll probably do a mix of black/white with cooler colors (green, blue, violet). I have some idea of what I want it to look like in my head, but I don't know if I can find yarns in that color.

Heh. Speak of the devil—Zed just phoned again. "Just wanted to call and tell you I love you." It's things like that I hang onto, later, when I'm missing him.
