Summer's Over!

So I am back at school, getting ready to start classes tomorrow. I finished the birthday sock on time, and now just have to think of one more little cool gift-y thing by the 12th. I washed them and left them out to dry, which I will pick up this coming weekend when I have to go home to get a new retainer (ick!) The socks fit me pretty well too, so I modeled them on my feet:

I'm happy with how they turned out, but the second one was becoming interminable by the end. If it hadn't been for the deadline they'd probably still be on the needles. And the recipient already liked the first one so he should like the pair.

This semester I am taking a cell physiology class, physics, economics, writing fiction and urban geography. It's a pretty eclectic schedule, and 1.25 classes more than the average load at my school, so I'll be busy! I'm a little worried about the workload, but since two of the classes are introductory-level and there's no reading-intensive class (as far as I can tell--reading for a fiction class is all fun anyway), I think it should be alright. I go to a liberal arts school, can't you tell?

My blog posts aren't super-regular, so I don't think it'll be a huge change for anyone when they become even more sporadic. Also, do I even have any regular readers? The answer to this one could be interesting...

Anyway, the summer has been good, and I'll be doing what I can in terms of knitting and posting during the semester, so I might be back soon.
