READING: Aaaaaalmost done with Cloud's End. I swear I'm not a slow reader, I just only do "fun" reading right before I turn out the light and go to sleep at night. I don't talk about my daytime reading here because during the daytime I'm typically reading critical theory, stuff I have assigned for my students to read, or student writing. Don't wanna blog about any of that.

WATCHING: Season 4 of Doctor Who. Nothing else noteworthy this week. Oh, except for the BSG webisodes. I've been watching those. I think of them as "Clue in Space!" #8 in the Raptor with Felix's morpha.

PLANNING: Is this where I'm supposed to talk about my new year's resolutions? They're pretty simple:
  1. Knit 12 sweaters this year, primarily from stash yarn.  I joined the NaKniSweMoDo group on Ravelry--National Knit a Sweater a Month Dodecathalon.  Hence the goal/resolution.
  2. Cook (and eat) at home more.
  3. Get my ass running again.
  4. Put $100/month into savings.
KNITTING:  A sweater, what else?  I'm about done with the body section of my heavily modified A Cardigan for Arwen.  Hope to start the sleeves this weekend.  They'll be tricksy, because I'm going to knit the cables for the cuffs, then pick up stitches and knit upward for the sleeves, rather than following the pattern.  Right now I'm debating whether to do a provisional cast-on for the cable, and then try to graft it together to finish the cuff (so it looks seamless--this is very hard to do with cables or ribbing of any kind); or to do a regular cast-on and just seam that fucker.
