I came in to work early this morning, because my superstar co-worker\/friend has a slow leak flat tire. I’m leaving late because I’ll go straight to pilates, so I have a full hour of luscious lunch time.<\/p>\n
Are you ready for this?<\/p>\n
I’m eating cheese ravioli drowned in Parmesan, which cost me $1.90; while knitting the Anton sweater<\/a>; while listening to a knitting podcast<\/a>.<\/p>\n I don’t know if life is really this good, or if it’s just my mood, but I’m feeling on top of the world.<\/p>\n Yesterday was the same. I won third place in the NCAA pool; I found the perfect apartment <\/a>in Champaign, found out that they accept cats, and can show it on next Friday when I (and Jason) will be down there; I called up my friend Loran who graciously rearranged his schedule so he’ll be home on said Friday so Jason and I don’t have to get a hotel; I went to the new improved gigantic Salvation Army and scored major sweet purchases, including a $3 iPod car adaptor<\/a>; I bought groceries for the first time in three weeks, including all sorts of fresh veggies and whatnot, and only spent $80; and while there, I found on sale<\/em>, a jar of pure horseradish puree. Jason’s been looking for that crap for weeks. Now I have it, and it cost a dollar.<\/p>\n Oh, also, when I got to work, I had an email from my one remaining friend in Germany, and an email from Ali, who sent me a transcript of the New Yorker article about a knit shop. I’m going to post the article as a comment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I came in to work early this morning, because my superstar co-worker\/friend has a slow leak flat tire.
