Sep. 19th, 2010 10:30 pmCurrently Knitting: Butterfly Mittens. I figured what I wanted to do with the pattern-I even did a gauge swatch up for a number of different options! But while doing the gauge swatch, I kind of. . . forgot to check my gauge. Starting over with 40 stitches instead of 44. . .
Currently Reading: Still working on Perdido Street Station. I’m starting to realize that reading long passages on fake esoteric philosophy of science theories might require more concentration than I have when I’m on the elliptical. Perhaps I should try reading those while sitting down.
Currently Watching on Netflix: Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. Rayguns! Jetpacks! Sky Pirate Angelina Jolie! I can’t say I’m too fond of Polly, but it’s an awesome little bit of fluff.
Currently Open in Other Tabs: Anomie, a Sherlock vid.
Also on the Sherlock angle: John and Sherlock Make a Baby (From Stuff they Find Around the Flat) Yes, it's technically kidfic. It's still good!
Night of the Living Trekkies: Three different people have linked me to this book trailer. Do you think they’re trying to tell me something?
The Newest Hyperbole and a Half: I know, I know, but this one literally had me wheezing with laughter!
The Complete Brioche Website: I’m trying to decide if I want my next large project (you know, after I finish the mittens, a pair of socks, maybe a beard balaclava and probably some Christmas presents) to be a 2-color brioche blanket or the brioche sweater. I know the sensible answer is ‘neither, are you crazy?’ . . . but it’s so tempting. . .
I can't believe it's taken me a week to get an episode reaction post up . . . work's been kicking my ass lately, working six days, 50-60 hour weeks.
And then I went and spent a sizable chunk of my overtime pay on comic books and ice cream, like a sensible adult.
So: Episode Reactions! Right! Spoilery bits separated by seed art, because what else am I going to do with pictures of seed art?
( Merlin (Spoilers for 3x01 and 3x02) )
( Ex Machina (Trade Paperback Vols. 4 and 5) )
( Mad Men (Spoilers for The Summer Man) )
. . . and now it's time for me to download the next episode.
