Wednesday Afternoon Rambly Bits
-- I like being able to use technical skills I haven't used in a while. In the course of one project, I used my knowledge of UNIX, Emacs, and HTML.
-- It's Wednesday, and I'm not sure at all what to make for Shabbat. I shall ponder, because it would be ideal if I could shop tonight and cook tomorrow night.
-- Still pondering the next knitting project. I'm thinking socks, mostly since I haven't done any in a while and they're a good portable project. Also, sock season is approaching (for some values of "approaching," inasmuch as it's mid-September and still in the 80s F).
-- Still no velociraptor attacks in the office since the last (purported) one.
-- Construction season continues apace, as they've torn up the area in front of the main entrance to my work building. For the next few weeks, I'll have to walk around the corner to enter the far entrance.
-- How is it possible that Rosh Hashannah starts two weeks from tonight? Wasn't it just Tisha b'Av?
-- I've started wearing tichels to work (I'd been wearing berets/a baseball cap previous). I'm not 100% sure why I waited until I'd been here almost two months; I'm much more comfortable in the tichels than I was in the hats.
-- Muffin and Squeaker have started attending a playgroup four days a week. From all reports, they're enjoying themselves. We're hoping they'll make some friends who are less than 20 years older than them.

I can certainly see why they're more comfortable!

I've never seen you in a tichel (though I have seen you in snoods and hats) but I'm sure it looks lovely on you. I find them very comfortable and have enjoyed learning to tie them (though I wear them for temperature control and neatness of appearance rather than observance).
