Here's some things that are up
 

• Finished second pair of socks! As I expected I would, I really like socks. I like all the finicky bits in the heel, and getting it all right, and then whoop I'm basically done. Good subway project. I was a big grumpus about magic loop but I reluctantly do like it. Next thing is to buy even smaller needles - like a 0 or 1.
• Cast on for my first garment. I want to do a sweater this year, but even if I don't do one (boxy and cropped are in right now and that's not my style) this is close enough. Plus I already have a yarn I like, and it was free (shift coverage perk) so I won't feel like I wasted money if it doesn't work out. Whether doing a first big project like this on size 3 needles in a lace weight is a "good" idea is a whole nother thing.
• Hey remember that shawl? suck it up, rip out the lace, it'll go way faster this time around. It'll be perfect for when spring comes.

• Doctor appointments needed: dentist, primary care. Should probably see a psychiatrist, don't want to, should anyway.
• Appoinments scheduled: therapy, physical therapy.
• Also the cat needs his teeth cleaned. Schedule soon, since the overtime money is coming in next week.

I went on a date Friday. It was fine, I guess - enjoyed it but felt ambivalent before, stupid after, and ambivalent again now. It never feels like I'm in the right mental or emotional place for it and gets put back on the backburner.
