arguchikREADING: Still working on Cloud's End by Sean Stewart. That's the only extra-curricular reading I'm doing right now.
WATCHING: Watched the end of Doctor Who, season 1 last night. I really liked the chemistry between Christopher Eccleston and Billie Piper, so I'm somewhat sad about David Tennant taking over. And of course I already know that he's leaving the series shortly, so I'll probably get used to him and come to like him and then he'll leave too. And so it goes. I like that about the Doctor, though; it's a cool conceit, to have a character that doesn't die but instead becomes someone else.
PLANNING: I guess I'm going to the CI this evening. I'm going to Bothell this afternoon to pick up the last batch of student portfolios. Other than that, it will be a weekend of grading.
KNITTING: Still working on the red cardigan for my mom. The first sleeve is done now. Yesterday I spent some time going through and cataloging my yarn stash, photographing it, and uploading pics to my Flickr site and to my Ravelry stash pages. I still have a little bit more to do, but my I can't seem to find my camera battery charger anywhere. I can't for the life of me remember where I put it. Oh, and I joined a group on Ravelry called NaKniSweMoDo--National Knit a Sweater a Month Dodecathon--which means that I am setting a goal of knitting one adult-sized sweater per month this year. That's a lot of knitting. It will help me with my New Year's resolution, though, which is to knit down my yarn stash! Yeah. I have enough yarn to knit 10 sweaters, plus several pairs of socks. (Actually, I technically have yarn for another couple of sweaters but it's yarn that I hate knitting with and plan to get rid of--mercerized cotton, which knits up pretty but is hell on my hands; and cotton chenille which is also hell on my hands but knits up for crap, thus has no redeeming value.) So that's what I'm going to be knitting this year: sweaters and socks. I'll be working on the sweaters primarily at home and at Purlygirls, and the socks will be my new bus knitting projects as soon as I finish up the two scarves I'm working on. (One is almost done. The other is only about 2 feet long right now.)
