Last night was semi-productive. I read some more of McEwan (still not a fan). Also, I wrote my outlines for my annotations and reread my story.
Tonight, for the first time since I lived in San Francisco two years ago, I started knitting. Alyssa and I went to Happy Ending Music and Reading Series. It was craft night and the publishers of a bunch of craft books donated a bunch of knitting needles and fancy yarn. I got really into knitting during the music and the crafty people giving talks about their books and their crafts.
Alyssa was convinced that this was going to be the ultimate event in New York and I can't say that it was, but we had fun. We even got yelled at more than once for talking during the lectures. The hostess, was weird and nobody laughed at her jokes, but that didn't stop her from trying. I felt like the bad kid in school. But I was also the master knitter of the night (not including the presenters). Here's the scarf I started. It's just like riding a bike, it came right back to me. The band that played, Mason Dixon was really good.Big excitement of the week: Veronica volunteers tomorrow, which means I get another fabulous haircut!
Oh! Today at work on the radio there was some weird radio gimmick where people were supposed to call in and choose between Chaka Kahn and Whitney Houston. For a couple hours it was all Whitney and Chaka all the time. Ultimately, Chaka won the battle for most-played, which was a bit disappointing.
Whitney song of the day would have to be: All At Once
And Chaka song has got to be: Tell Me Something Good
*health restoration of the week: No coffee; just hot water with lemon
