Still Standing

So, I haven't managed to blog since the semester started. I haven't managed to knit. I haven't done anything SCAdian in longer than I can remember. And don't get me started about the drop in the amount of cooking I have done over the last 4 weeks. Spring semester is in full swing, and I have no free time. Zero.

Don't get me wrong, there are many good things that have come along with that. Creative writing has forced my hand, and I am writing poetry on a regular basis again. I have read a lot of medieval-period books that have been on my must-read list for a while, and re-activated all of the French living in my head that I thought was long forgotten. I have found philosophy classes where people are actually engaged in the process. Most importantly, I have the end of my undergraduate study in sight.

But I have not had time to blog, to find words and turns of phrase that strike me and make me want to ramble on for a paragraph (or ten.) With no papers due next week, and no tests looming, I decided to take this night and at least re-acquaint myself with my blog. I also managed to knit 6 rows in the sweater I started over winter break, and am enjoying the Olympic highlights as I type. There is no schoolwork on the agenda. Well, for another 10 hours at least.

So off I go to enjoy that. Hopefully, it won't be another 6 weeks before I blog again.
