• I might have to create a filter of non-communities so that I can read my flist in any sort of timely manner in the mornings. I like reading fic, don't get me wrong, but it clogs up my flist and I miss people's updates and that makes me sad.

• I have officially had at least one of every class I will have for the next year and it should be totally awesome. My teachers are enthusiastic which in turn makes me enthusiastic so that's awesome. I am actually looking forward to the whole rest of the year, and this years reading list and work lists look FUN. So that's a plus.

• I decided to name the kitten Nyx. It's appropriately impish for her. She's slowly becoming less shy and way more affectionate and adorable. I'll be keeping the names from that poll just in case more cats enter my life in the future. I do want to someday own a cat named Morgana. (And now that I'm thinking about maybe a cat named Morwen too. And possibly a black and white, male/female sibling pair that I can name Nox and Lux. Because I am just that geeky.)

• The internet at my school sucks so much I can't even post this from my laptop.

• I came home from school today to a box full of yarn and journals and a few little other surprises from Mira. !!! She managed to totally stuff my stash bag full. (...good thing I totally have a spare bag waiting to be filled? Bad, Sky! Bad!) I already have two new project ideas for some of it. And I sort of thing it's just what I need. Particularly simpler projects—lace, you and I had such a passionate romance, but I... I'm sorry, I have to put you aside for now in favor of things that won't make me rip out my hair—as they are things I can do in my giant periods of free time at school this year. Definitely at least going to make myself a sweater.

• Clearly that was all to say: Mira is awesome and we love her dearly.

• While organizing my stash, I discovered that my size 7 interchangeable needles are missing. ... Seriously. They're just gone. What the hell could I have been doing with them, and without a cable (since none are missing)?

• The other thing I came home to was a skin for my Blackberry. Now I will be able to tell it from my mom's. And also I think it's adorable. (Though I am sort of sad that I didn't get one of the black paint splatter ones. But.) I managed to fuck up one of the corners a bit while trying to reposition it, but it's not a big deal... to anyone without my sense of OCD. (No really, it's not that big of a deal to me, it just catches my eye and makes me go, "Hm.")

• Who knew I could translate from Greek to English 23 verses of Genesis in 1.5 hrs after not touching a Greek textbook for 3 months? Not me! Guess who totally did it? Me! I felt a little badass.

• My first and only class tomorrow is at 1:30pm. My Monday's don't start until 1:30pm, either. I have a pretty chill school schedule, all in all. ([livejournal.com profile] imaginarycircus, the ones you might know that I've got: Starr for Language, Golluber for Music, Bolotin (and Smith) for Seminar.) I actually understood something in Ptolemy today! I'm counting that as a win. Also, you know, that I translated the second verse of Genesis from memory without having my translation in front of me. Yeah, today was just sort of win in general.

• Must. Get. Car.

• P.S. This is my "win" icon.
