OK, OK — in between freaking out about carpet, flooring, paint, and drywall demolition, I sneaked off for a little fun.
June 3 was the second annual "I Can Has Cheezburger" night at the Mariner's ball game in Seattle. And I was there. Oh, yes. And so was the New York Times, who decided to not only publish my (thankfully unidentified) picture right smack at the beginning, but also quote me.

(Yeah, Lady Gaga got that line from me. It's OK, we're soul sisters.)
For me, the last few weeks have been all about NEW HOUSE and especially, FRESH PAINT.
Up to now, most of it has been pretty no-brainer stuff. For instance, I chose which bedroom is going to be the studio: one of them is half a foot bigger, and has a much larger closet. That was easy.
Just a brief post to remind anyone who is interested in the Summer Sweater Class at Garden Home — registration for summer term started yesterday morning. (The start of THPRD registration is usually pretty crazy, what with people trying to get their kids into every class under the sun, so I held off a day on the reminder. No one needs to spend extra knitting time on hold.)

How about this one? it's because we're moving!

I got an email from the Garden Home class scheduler today that says we just need a couple more knitters to fill the Monday night class — else it will have to be canceled. 
A decision will have to be made soon! So if you were thinking about it, or are on the bubble, or just haven't gotten around to registering yet — well, we need to know your intentions, at least (and if you intend to join the Wednesday morning class, we'd like to know about that too, actually).

The interwebs is a fascinating and amazing time-waster, especially on cleaning day…
Don't ask how I got there, but today I found myself reading this psychology paper from UIUC. It had a description of an interesting set of psychological experiments wherein college students were "primed" with certain social concepts, such as politeness or rudeness, and their subsequent actions were analyzed to see if the priming had any effect.
