Greyish

I've been feeling sort of greyish and out-of-sorts lately; not depressed, but just not all there.

So, things that have made me happy recently:

  • Scott Westerfeld posted a picture of his new protagonist today and EEEE! She is Asian! Or at least I think she is...

  • TechKnitting continues to be awesome with a nifty way to cast on a little i-cord loop to start circular projects. I marvel at her brain and am now dying to make a baby hat from top down.

  • The weather, which is warm and sunny and beautiful.

  • Daylight savings starts on Sunday! More daylight, oh thank you!

Those hats are so cute! They remind me that I need to start thinking of some projects to make for Dulaan (http://www.nwkniterati.com/movabletype/archives/MossyCottage/001682.html#contribute), which I want to contribute to this year. I've made enough luxury presents for myself and others; time to make some warm and useful things.

She sure looked Asian to me! Though I had always assumed that with the possible exception of the renegades in the woods, all or most of his characters were probably mixed-race and the previous covers did not reflect that. (I don't know if that's actually in the text, or just my projection.)

Asian girl! Yay!

Techknitter continues to amaze me. I've got to sit down with my needles someday and try all that stuff.

She is definitely Asian. The new book is set in Japan.

I didn't know you read these!! YAY!! Did you do a review? I love reading your reviews. Personally, I really loved the first two. I'm at arms length with the third one, partly, I think, because so much has happened so fast and also because I LOVED Zane and Westerfeld broke my heart.

I was all prepared for it to be over so when I heard about the fourth book, read on Wikipedia of all things, and that they were setting it in Japan with a new heroine I was absolutely thrilled. New blood, new adventures. YAY!
