Things I've Done.

4. Finish knitting the blanket - accomplished

I finished the knitting about a week ago, and then sewed the five strips together in the past week. The blanket is much bigger than I anticipated - almost large enough for a double bed. I took a nap with it yesterday, and I loved it. This is the biggest knitting project I've undertaken, and despite the fact it was a straight knit, it took me about a year and a half to do the 30 hours of knitting. I am really glad I'm done.

35. Attend a wine tasting - accomplished

I went with two friends to Sarah's Wine Bar a few weeks ago. It was only $10, for a local charity, and four wines. I apparently am not very good at the whole "wine tasting" thing, because I don't know what I drank exactly, but it was a white, a rose, and two reds. It was fun, I suppose, but not exactly what I expected.

38. Go to the White Elephant or similar flea market at least twice a summer (2/6) - in progress

I dragged Evan and his girlfriend yesterday, although I wasn't as impressed as I was last time. The flea market is usually a hit or miss -- it has a million things I think I need, or nothing that catches my eye. I will say though, that the flea market makes me want my own house or unfurnished apartment like nobody's business. I know it sounds strange, but I can't wait to buy my own furniture.

42. Try 15 new restaurants (12/15) - in progress

I ate at Ritz Asia the other week with my friend Alex. It's supposed to be Asian fusion, but I think it was really just Asian food. In any case, it was delicious. I had some kind of mango chicken. And it's in the same building that Biksbees used to inhabit last summer, so it was fun to see it redecorated inside.

56. Exercise 2-3 times a week (8/143) - in progress

Don't even look at me. I am a disgrace... started in mid-March, it's now August... 18 weeks and eight of them I've exercised twice or more. I need to get back into the gym and into a routine. I now realize how incredible a resource UREC is.

--Till next time.
