March is going to be interesting. I start my next grad class in a few days. I'm doing a major re-write of patient messages. I'm starting a new crochet project. And I'm going to the Maryland Science Center to see Body Worlds 2 this weekend. (Not yet sure how I feel about cadavers in artful poses. I'll let you know once I've seen them.)
You can read Neil Gaiman's American Gods for free in March. I admire this book a lot, although it's not my favorite by him. Still, if you want to get a sense of his writing without actually having to buy his books, this is the way to do it.
March is also National Crochet Month. Now that I've got granny squares more or less figured out, it's time to move on to Babette blankets, which are made from different sizes of granny squares that are sewn together. They look like this. Cool, eh?
Oh, and I came across the updated mneumonic to help remember the names of the planets: My very exciting magic carpet just sailed under nine palace elephants (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Ceres, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Eris). A 10-year-old came up with that.
