What am I thankful for? Many, many things. The first of which is more easily conveyed through a series of pictures:
What else am I thankful for? I'm thankful that I'm going to be able to use skype again on the weekends! My computer bit the dust, as you may recall reading previously. I was surviving valiantly but not being able to use skype on the weekends meant I was having awful conversations of 160 characters with my mom/sisters and that's just not good enough. I look forward to a weekend of chatting and seeing people's lovely faces thanks to the other part of the package I received yesterday:
So I am a very happy girl right now. And I'm almost half way done knitting the coolest blanket I've ever knit (Cool and knitting in the same sentence? You bet.)
And I am accepting skype appointments. I'm free from (EST) 10:00 am - whenever you go to bed on Friday, 6:30 am until 1:00 pm on Saturday, and from 6:00 am - 12:00 pm and 2:oo pm -5:00 pm on Sunday. I'm serious. Let's chat.
Random Thoughts:
1. G-mail marks my work e-mail address as spam. Which explains why nobody has been getting my e-mails...
2. While there is no real substitute for a Blacksburg fall, a Cape Town spring does a pretty good job. I'll post pictures soon. :)
3. I love watching the debates now that I've already voted.
4. I wrote the first chapter of a book that I'm writing for myself. It's pretty flipping awesome, and nobody can refute that because nobody else will ever, EVER see this book. So it's pretty much a grand slam among all readers.
5. The video store that I periodically visit just got season 1 of New Girl, so my night was pretty splendid as I got to finish the season! Simple pleasures...
