tulips, tuesday, tonks

1. Well, that project is over with. Yesterday was a very, very stressful day, and when I eventually got home I ate supper and then fell asleep for a six hour "nap". I feel much better now, though I have another presentation tomorrow. At least it's only me, and it's my honours seminar class - I do not fear my honours seminar class. At least not very much.

3. Pictures!

The socks I knit from recycled cotton in the jungle. Aren't they pretty? Yes, they are a Cookie pattern - Hedera.
Our friend Stu has been slowly metamorphing into a hippy; here you can just barely see his dreads. Parallax is fascinated with them.

Our parking lot this morning. We were not amused. Luckily it mostly melted this afternoon.

Our tulips! They were leftovers from the Goblet Grab on Friday. I love fresh flowers in the house.

Writing economics papers does not look like much fun.

My cat remains less than photogenic. I swear, sometimes she actually looks cute.

4. Some links:

• Damn you Kurzweil, right again!
• The Good, The Bad, and the Queen is a great album. I endorse it wholeheartedly.
• OMG, that evil Chavez guy is trying to crack down on deaths due to alcohol during Holy Week! He must be... working with Iran! That's it! DIAF, Associated Press.

5. And finally, a rather great little video. Yes, that is her. Yes, those are the lyrics and basic gist of the video. My question is: are those Nelly Furtado bangs?
