Things that go boom in the knit

After a more-or-less boring day of Latin and a tiny bit of work on my papers, I went to game tonight. Because this group tends to take much longer on each character than I'm used to, and beacuse our characters haven't all met up yet, I knew I'd have a fair amount of down-time. I also know myself well enough to understand that I get really fidgity unless my hands are doing something. So I brought my knitting.
All told, my character didn't do much. Two of the other characters, however, did have Exciting Adventures (tm) involving cars with rocket launchers, people who didn't die nearly as fast as they should have, two exciting escapes from near-certain death, and a wicked gunfight. There was a line of the night, but I have forgotten it.
By the end of the night, I had finished the second panel of Isabelle's sweater. I'm actually quite pleased with it. In total, that makes both front panels finished. I would have started the sleeve except that I didn't have my smaller needles with me. Ah well. You can't have everything. On the upside, I was then able to use my now-free needles to threaten people who were talking during other people's scenes ("I have knitting needles, and I'm not afraid to stab you with them!")
And now it's late and I'm going to sleep. Tomorrow: laundry, PIMS, possibly lunch with my aunt, possibly a religious service and high tea at Massey, possibly other things as well. Almost certainly more Latin. G'night all.
