Fuzzy!
You are Mohair.
You are a warm and fuzzy type who works well with
others, doing your share without being too
weighty. You can be stubborn and absolutely
refuse to change your position once it is
set, but that's okay since you are good at
covering up your mistakes.
What kind of yarn are you?

TheBoy and I saw the grossest thing today while doing our weekly grocery shopping. I tried searching the ol' net for a photo of this product to no avail. It was fried chicken...in a can! With gravy! I'm not sure if it was actual chicken, or if it was ficken [fake chicken.] We found it in the aisle with the canned chicken and SPAM and other various meats so who knows.
Slow Going.
Life continues. School is busy, and I have lost a lot of my motivation. Early wedding plans are shaping, although most of it is quite undecided at this point. Both Christmas and Whidbey Island photos are up in my flickr.
Too Damn Early.
I am up at 5.45 am. Why? Because I have to be at school by 6.45 am. To get in a van and drive for many hours. Something tells me I'm going to be tired this weekend. Good thing Derek will be around to make dinner for me Monday night when I get home. Hopefully it won't be too foggy where I'm going and I'll be able to get good pictures.

I am also astounded by how many ads there were for the relief of constipation. Although, they didn't start to refer to it as constipation in the magazine for another 15 years or so from what I can tell.
