Oh, that’s not fair.

Pi knows that he’s supposed to stay off the kitchen table. But if I’m sitting at it doing a pharm math assignment, and he jumps up, takes my pen from me, throws it on the floor, then wraps his paws around my neck while purring… how, exactly, can I possibly scold him?

Stupid cat.

College update, then stash enhancement.

I have no scores for my current lab course (Non-Sterile Compounding) yet; the first practical exam is tomorrow morning, and the written portion is Thursday afternoon. As far as Keyboarding, I’m pleased with the score but glad the module is over–I’ve had computers in my home for twenty years and am quite comfortable with my skills, so the basic learn-to-type exercises and speed tests were boring. I made a comment last week that my keyboard was missing a foot, and the teacher replied that I’d likely burned it off by typing too fast. =D

We’re starting Pharmacology next week, and although it’s supposed to be challenging, I’m looking forward to it. I think. Eeek. Fingers crossed.

So! Now onto the stash enhancement. Not mine, however, but yours. I’m going to link you all to a few of my favourite yarn-ogling sites, because I like being an enabler and/or watching willpower crumble.

Colorsong Yarn — Devoted exclusively to Handmaiden and Fleece Artist yarn and kits. Mmm.
Emtnestr — An absolute ton of Lorna’s Laces and Cherry Tree Hill, plus much-coveted CTH mill ends.
Pick Up Sticks — It’s Canadian, and it’s awesome. Lots of sock yarn, and other goodies as well.
Simply Sock Yarn — Much loveliness here, like Claudia’s, Koigu, and Shibui Knits.
Webs — Uh. Do I even need a description here?

There’s nothing better than yarn p*rn on a Tuesday evening. Or any evening. Or afternoon. Or morning. Or… well, you get the picture.

Because I haven’t done so in a while, I’ll leave you with a photo of cats.
