Creeper blanket and time pieces!

So whatever convinced me that I could have this done by March 21 needs to be shot. OH GOD. What the hell was I thinking? I need to make 99 more of these things
< (These things here)
and have them all stitched together in the appropriate pattern before his birthday. Craps. As of now I have six of this colour done and I need nine total. 

Mathmatically (ugh) if I finish at least 4 a day, I should have three or so days left to block it out,sew it together, and weave in the ends (and by god I will use an Oxford comma!). Let's see how that goes....



In other news, I think I may have violently embarrassed myself in Vineland today by yelling out loud the phrase "I have gonorrhea of the face" at a red light while everyone around me had their windows down. Ooops. Went and did homework in the cemetery with Wallace for a while and hoped no one in my classes saw that.... 


On the plus side! I finally got my Star Wars watch in the mail from Amazon.com! 

Sexy sexy Star Wars watch..... 

At this point though, I wear my normal watch, my pocket watch (as a necklace) and this thing. I'm starting to think I'm a time lord....

Hoping for more project and blogging tomorrow. Must keep everyone posted on my ambitions to start another Doctor Who scarf.... After I finish my dad's Father's Day afghan. 

Clearly, now that I am working, I have too much time on my hands.

Oh god where have I been!? Also, explosions.

Short answer to that: Finals have started and then ended, and then there was Christmas, and then I got a job and the next semester started and oh sweet baby Jesus whose brilliant idea was it to sign me up for Italian!? But alas, I'm making myself come back and get into the habit of writing so I don't get fantastically out of shape and I don't forget everything my professors (and Jost) beat into my head....

But in other news, I'm starting my next big ambitious crafting project! A creeper quilt! For those of you who don't play minecraft, google it. Back? Okay. They're frightening pixelated little squares of explosion, and that gave me the brilliant idea to make the boyfriend a quilt using the loom I got for Christmas (don't worry, he doesn't read the blog). Pictures and hopefully more constant updates to follow (I hope, seriously, I suck at this).
Sssssssssssss *BOOM*
