Experiments in Tangible Geometry... & other things

posting from work

i haven't been busy-busy; i just don't feel like i have a lot to say. i have two projects right now: a pair of elegant gauntlets in regia (clown colorway) for someone i've never met and a silk corset in black karabella(?) frost for me. i usually knit on the gauntlets while at work. (webpage is outdated, by the way.) i'll knit on the corset during knitting group or when i can find adequate lighting. that, and i'm sad that the dye from the yarn is rubbing onto the needles.

blogger is finally letting me use a site feed: http://tangiblegeometry.blogspot.com/atom.xml

work is interesting, as far as situations go, but the day-to-day things aren't as fun. i was originally supposed to work full time from graduation (march) to the end of the fiscal year (june). then my boss asked if he got funding, would i be willing to stay on to train the staff person who is taking over for me, since he'd be vacationing in ireland. he didn't tell me whether or not he got funding, but he did. while he was on vacation, my employment got extended 2 weeks since we spent the first 2 weeks cleaning and organizing the office. my end date was supposed to be aug 12. last week, i got another extension. my new, and probably final, end date is aug 30. it feels a bit like being strung along, but i do like this place, its atmosphere and the people. and the people seem to like me. not sure what i'm doing afterwards.

I do my thing and you do your thing
I am not in this world to
live up to your expectations,
and you are not in this world to
live up to mine.
You are you
and I am I
and if by chance we find each other,
it's beautiful.
-- Fritz Perls, "Gestalt Prayer"
