In my new office, I can hear the phones ringing in the office suite downstairs. It's totally odd. It is as clear as if the phone were ringing in the next office over. _

So, there's this old Simpsons episode where Lisa has mumps and Marge teaches her how to quilt. And Marge shows of her sewing callous. While I'm not quite sure I believe you can get a callous so nice it'll keep quilting needles from stabbing you open, I'm developing quite a callous from my super sharp knitting needles. I love my super sharp needles. I even kind of like that I have a hole in my finger from them. And rock hard skin. _

Yesterday was the first time I worked on my nifty lace in my greenish-khakiish cargo pants (I wear these pants all the time, so this was actually kind of surprising. The pants and the lace are exactly the same color. It's almost funny. The lace is coming along nicely, although there is one spot where the repeat is off, and I'm not quite sure what happened. Lace, I have decided, is, ultimately, fun. _

I'm going to the Apple Store today, where I will cross my fingers and hope that my power cord is still covered under my warantee. _

Sam spent all day yesterday hobbling/limping around, and not wanting to go up (or down) the stairs. He was slowly getting better, I could tell, all day, but we were also doing things like cuddling him and carrying him, so he was milking that. I decided to call the vet if he was still acting weird today, but today he was back to bounding around. So, whatever was wrong with him, he's better now. _

The power cord for my laptop has truly broken now. Until last night I could sort of wrench it around and make it work, at least most of the time. I have, fortunately, managed to book an appointment at the Apple Store. I considered just going and saying "Look! Broken!" Maybe I will, yet, as it's not til tomorrow. _

The question with having house-guests for me always turns into whether or not they are hoopy froods. Fortunately, Brianne found a bunch of towels in the basement which may or may not be mine. As I am the only person currently living in the house who has currently thinks they own at least one white towel (it was a small pile of clean white towels that she came upstairs with), I figure they are probably mine. Or else they are Gina's and she left them here. But then I don't know what happened to any white towels that I may or may not have owned at some point. So they are mine. My roommates both only have towels of one color. I have at least 2 white towels, two lavendar towels, and two dark green towels. _

So, I now have free unlimited picture/text/video messaging on my cell phone, which is new and exciting. So I thought I'd look up how Julia does the photoblogging thing from her phone, and, as I started looking at this before 7 (I was up before 7 because The Dog was up before 7 and rather than just trying to get me to play he started making wretching noises, I was up and had stuck him in the yard), I couldn't for the life of me figure it out. Help? _
