I had a pretty good weekend, except for the weather, which was cold, wet, windy and generally not nice. On Friday night I hemmed the black linen that finally arrived in the mail.

Saturday I had a fit of domesticity and did laundry and went to the grocery store (and stood in the snow waiting for the train home) and started actually doing the embroidery for which I had hemmed the linen. Silk floss is really nifty stuff, but since it's slippery, it's hard to keep the needle threaded with it. Maybe I should use needles with smaller eyes?

Sunday I did embroidery and not much else, and went off to the birthday dinner for scirocco. That was fun. I got to see people. You'd think for all the time I spend online talking to pretty much the same people, seeing them wouldn't be that big a deal, but it is. I don't seem to be the kind of person who can call somebody up and say "how about dinner?". It might be different if I could drive and getting anywhere didn't take at least an hour. If I could just find a way to be able to drive every single day for a month, I could get my license, but (a) nobody I know can drive with me every day for a month, and (b) it's starting to be winter and that's not the greatest time for a novice driver to learn. Grr, argh.

There's sort of the ghost of a deep thought rattling around in my head, but I have no idea what it's about or whether it's worth thinking to begin with.
