Finished Sweater and Random Thoughts

There is no order to today’s post. I’ve gotten in the habit of writing blog posts the night before, and then scheduling them to post the next day.

But this weekend I have been spending a lot of time working with Lyric Theatre, a local company on “The Rose of Persia,” a light opera with music by Arthur Sullivan, half of Gilbert and Sullivan. It’s a great show, and I hope anyone in the San Jose area looks it up (it’s playing in the Montgomery Theater downtown this coming Thurs-Sun) and brings friends to come see it. Very fun show.

It does mean I’ve been tired, though. It’s worth it, but it makes the blog random.

It also means I haven’t sent out Chris‘ gift yet. Sorry Chris; it will get there. Promise.

Did you hear about this? Part of the diary from one of the astronauts killed in the Space Shuttle Columbia trageday was recovered. I have no idea how they managed to recover the diary, nor how they RECOGNIZED it once they did find it. But it is a very sobering thought, don’t you think?

Oh, I have an iPhone now! Whee! I am loving it. Anyone have any apps to recommend?

I said finished sweater… here it is!

This is the Lotus Blossom tank I’ve been working on for a while now. I had a sneaking suspicion part-way through that it would be too big on me, and it is. So it’s a present now instead of for me (which contributed to it taking so long to finish). But it’s still done! Yay!

The color in the photo is horrid. Please see past posts about this sweater to find a better indication of the color. (It’s Knit Picks Shine Sport in Hydrangea. Very pretty in person, not this icky washed out color.)
