Only a week left before I leave

I finally had a nightmare about my clinicals. I dreamed that Dad and I were driving when I spazzed out. "OH NO! I left my business-casual wear behind!" Dad gave me one of his exasperated looks and we pulled off to turn and drive back the two hours we'd already driven out.

I am, however, only a little freaked out. Considering how extreme this exam is and how vital it is that I pass it to finally taste freedom, I am pretty dang chill. However, this doesn't mean that everything I've knit hasn't been tossed blithely into the frog pond. Pomatomus out of the All-Things Heather? Toss! I keep tormenting the ATH yarn, actually, because it's all sorts of cheerful pink and orange and yellow but I just can't think of what to use it for and I am wondering if it won't come in handy during Sock Madness or SKP2008 (see both buttons on the left-hand column, there are links). I actually wound the double-stranded lace-weight yarn for the SM challenge. I got a 7-8 st/inch on that so I think it will work out for the intended challenge.

And if it starts on March 1, well, I will have to default because Hello, Clinicals. Hopefully not though. March 15 is what it looks like.

Anyways, in all the ruckus, I am pausing in my studies to catch up on a few memes. Christina tagged me for the What's In My Purse meme.

This is my purse. It's an old leather purse I got last year(?) at JCPenney's and it needs replacing, clearly.


This is what's in the front pocket with the exception of the iPod itself which was being used while I walked and I hadn't put it back in the purse. The iPod/transmitter is a lifesaver at work in the morgue salad prep room where I can blast whatever the heck I want and no one has yet to complain...out loud.

(Why yes, those ARE two Pamprin. Shut up.)

And this is what's in the main compartment. The Palm Pilot is marvelous for church. It has scriptures, The Ensign, hymns, General Conference and most importantly, Monopoly. Also, can you tell I go to WW? :P


What's in YOUR purse?

Then on my friend's blog is the ABC meme.
