dear yearn, where have you been?

what have i been doing since april, you would like to know?  well, thinking a lot about posting and thinking a lot about knitting, but not doing as much as i'd like of either:

may: 14 court deadlines followed by a week-long conference.

june: trial followed by wedding (my cousin's) followed by deep breath.

july:  visiting with friends in bend

and, oh yes, every possible other free minute has been spent in front of the tv, watching the blessed WORLD CUP.

and so, with that, as the second half of the final game begins, i promise to be back shortly, with much to say.
