The Time Shepherdess

!!

This is one of the most beautiful shades of green I've ever seen before in my life!

Pictures when I get settled down in one place or the other, I'm in the middle of taking stuff a brisk eight minutes down the road a bit. Thank you muchly, Yarn Fairy! (At least... I'm guessing it was you! I wasn't expecting such things from anyone else, actually :O )

Chris and I watched Doctor Who and knitted all night last night until I nearly passed out. (Robot, The Sontaran Experiment, Rose, The End of the World, The Unquiet Dead, Aliens of London, World War Three and I fell in and out of sleep half way through Dalek.) She went home around 6:30 this morning and I trundled to my bed... couldn't sleep, checked things, stayed up until I couldn't anymore around 10am. Crashed hard until I realised I was sleeping just before 11am.

Got up, got my things, put on my coat and shoes and went downstairs to wait for the UPS person. From 11am until 3:30pm I waited. No sign. The little note from yesterday stated between 10:30am and 2pm.

I know I saw an UPS truck go past down Broad at 1pm... but still, no sign in the building, no passing by the door or anything like that. BAH.

...I could have slept more. And I could have cast on at 2pm. What a waste of day .-. (even though I'm almost finished with a non-knitting olympics item that is top secret right now).

EDIT: Went downstairs a minute ago to check and see if there had been a note left while I was up here. Nope. They didn't bother to stop today, apparently.

Spaghetti tonight! Mmmmmspaghetti. Finishing the super secret knitting and then casting on for my knitting olypics piece. Don't expect me around tonight (possibly not tomorrow, either) for more than a few minutes at a time if at all.

37 hours. Why am I still awake? I haven't a clue. It could be the fact that I had pixi stix earlier right when I was about to fall over. Mmmmmmsugar.

Gonna go get some more work done. There are quite a few things I need to work on. But tonight I'll be sure to watch a little more TV than, say, sketchbook or needles. Brain needs to relax, I'm sure.

I missed your package today, Yarn Fairy! T-T It's supposed to be here again tomorrow between 10 and 2... a very broad time range. Which means most likely 11am. Going to try to stay up the entire time so I don't miss it again... if I pass out now I'll definitely miss it again.

If there is someone on your Friends List who makes your world a better place just because that person exists and who you would not have met (in real life or not) without the internet, then post this same sentence in your journal.

I am, indeed, quite fortunate to know all of you in some form or fashion.
