Present Joys

“We thank the Lord of heaven and earth
who hath preserved us from our birth
for present joys, for blessings past,
and for the hope of heaven at last.”

Evidently, some people noticed that I was knitting at the Craig Finn show last night. If Elizabeth Zimmermann could knit while riding a motorcycle, it seems completely valid to keep a half-finished sock with me for those dull moments of waiting around at a rock show.

All I know is that I’ve got good memories of seeing Mount Moriah and Craig Finn in concert plus three inches’ worth of a sock. What about you?

What I did this week (10 feb 2012)

  • Drew Jeremy with ink. Boryana blacked out the entire second floor of AMF so we would be able to see the shadow shapes.
  • Studied art history facts during friendship lunch. Extremely fun.
  • Drew an animal with a colored pencil for 6 more hours. It is not even that good, you guys. But it is finally done.
  • Drove to Akron on wednesday night to see a concert! and got back before midnight.
  • Complained about Arthur Miller in my American lit class.
  • Took my first art history test on thursday, which was totally invigorating and awesome.
  • Had a good old-fashioned knit-n-crit in Burleigh’s class.
  • Went to another concert on thursday night and met up with Sarah and Tom; it was quite an adventure!
