it's been a while

So, here I am in Oshkosh, WI, relaxing in my hotel room after an exhausting but fun OPE. It has been a week and a half of interviews -- both student and professional staffs. But now I have a little time to enjoy my hotel room and relax. I can't believe it's only two weeks until the big day, and I feel a bit old. Hopefully soon that will pass...

At least I have been able to visit my favorite coffee shop and get the wonderful chocolate from hughes' -- I can't get enough of that! I didn't do any outlet shopping this year, but I don't really need anything. One of the crazy things that happened is that my former boss (and now friend) and I were talking about a colleague, and she CALLED while we were at dinner! How strange the world is...

I am on blanket number two of the three commissioned blankets for purdue grad students -- the spring green is gorgeous. I start on the sunshine one soon. So my knitting world has been mainly baby blankets, but I will find something new to do soon.

Enough of blathering for tonight -- I must sleep.
