today's lessons

1. I am good at saving money-- specifically by VE'ing the hell out of a light fixture package while preserving the integrity of the design.

2. Kendall Square is an abyss. I will never understand my way around Kendall Square. It is my personal Bermuda Triangle/Black Hole of buildings.

3. On Wednesdays, I typically eat at least 1 butterscotch candy. At least 1, and only on Wednesdays.

the little things

I haven't felt so great over the past few days-- headache galore. I stayed at work a bit late to finish a tedious task, then made my way over to the T to ride home. While waiting for the train, I pulled out my knitting (shown below) and a wonderfully friendly girl came by and asked what I was knitting. I pulled it out to show her, and said "it's a shawl" and she asked which one, to which I replied "Daybreak". She knew he pattern, complimented my work, and pulled out some socks in progress! It really made my day.

Check out my daybreak-- it really is lovely! Ha!
