Kristine: Vox Style

sad computer again

nobody@vox.com(Kristine) — Tue, 29 Jul 2008 08:52:32 -0700

Last night, my computer choked after backing some files up, and now it's gone sad again. Which means, I'm going to need to reformat and reinstall like I did last time. :sigh: This time, it's letting me actually log in and click on things, but doing them in super duper slo-mo. Like I started copying my documents folder about a half hour ago and it's just now starting to copy (it was processing to see how many files there were up until now). But at least that means I can back this stuff up, even if it takes a little while.

This is not coming at a good time because I'd like to be prepping for my new iPhone to arrive, and now when it comes, I may not have a computer ready to sync it with and grab music and everything!

I am glad that I took the time to document my process last time, though, because that will help me get back on my feet faster. I need to record a few new things that I've added since February to my list and that will give me a good reminder on what to back up.

Tunnel

It's like a tunnel of greens. Between the mall and my house. Lots of blackberries growing too. It was a great knitting night and i'm walking both ways even after a busy go go go day!

Between last weeks book sale we worked and the one we visited at Three Creeks today, we have a nice pile of books, videos, a casette, and even a game. Nothing more than a dollar. :)

knitting randomness

nobody@vox.com(Kristine) — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 21:15:42 -0700

I just realized I didn't knit at all today. Usually, I sit down at some point and just chill and work on a project, but somehow, I got busy and didn't.

But I did start planning my next projects. I know a few of the gifts I'll be working on for the holiday season already, and so I was sketching those out and picking out colors. And then a few days ago, I drew a beautiful project of what I want to work on for myself.

I'm behind on picture taking - my ravelry profile isn't quite up to date with my 3 latest projects. I did get a bunch of the stash photos I took last month up, so that's closer to accurate (although my last Knit Picks shipment isn't in the list yet). I still need to get the perfect ribbon for my cami, and maybe I'll find that this weekend. I'd like to go to World Market for something, so maybe I'll hit the Michael's on that side of town to see what selection they have.

So right now, I'm working on a lace wrap of my own design, and finishing my jaywalker socks. I'm not sure what socks I'll work on next after these are done, I have several skeins waiting for me to pick a pattern for them.

I've got a few knitting books right now that need to be recorded and returned to the library, too. I hate to give them back sometimes because I'd like to keep them around, but I know these ones have waiting lists.

This is really random, and it's been a while since I've made this scatter-y of a post about anything, so I think I'll click Save before I change my mind!

Yummy pop (soda) for being only 10 calories! I think we got them at World Market. Cool. :)

I'm a fan of all things Joss Whedon does (like Buffy), and people have been talking about Dr. Horrible for a while now (including Joss himself). It's his project from during the writer's strike, and the first act was unveiled today.

I had a hard time getting the site to load, but they switched servers and we ended up watching it on E's computer. Hilarious! I can't wait to see the other two acts later on this week. You can get it on iTunes, too. Here's the trailer for it, if you haven't seen it or heard about it yet.

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog - Trailer

Enjoy!

Sleeveless me

It's a sunny day, i'm a little late for knitting, but i'm staying late for book sale set up. I have more books than fit in my bag, so i feel like a student or something with the rest tucked in the crook of my arm.
