Apparently today is a
Square Root Day (3-3-09) which only happens nine times every century. The last one was 2-2-04 and the next will be 4-4-16.
Magic can happen anywhere.
Mozart doesn't care much, however:

In the meantime, this is what I'm doing to maintain a semblance of sanity...
I'm reading about a notorious double agent from WWII:

My book mark is a souvenir from the 50th anniversary of the
University of Salamanca choir, which we went to on a family vacation in May 2000. I belonged to the choir during the school year 1979-80 when I was a student there.

This is where we used to practice:

On the knitting front, the sleeves are coming along nicely after a few false starts:

Actually, I have ripped them out enough that I probably could have five sleeves by now, but I don't, I have two sleeves that will be done relatively soon.
P's psychedelic socks are coming along nicely; this is the second:

And can you believe, that sock I accidentally started in Chile is now done to the toe:

Yesterday I had to go to the LYS to pick up reinforcement thread. Amazing, given my "stash" (which P was trying not to make fun of me about yesterday - thanks for that):

The gal at The Yarnery was asking me if more than one spool was necessary for a pair of socks. I told her no ... she wondered ... asked if I had color issues ... really, it's hard to explain ... but in my defense, I just want to say that I am not quite crazy yet.
If I make a hamburger dress, then maybe you can call me crazy (we all have our limits):

(turns out it's
crocheted, but you get my drift)

Fish is so quick! Well, I say go for the hamburger dress once you ketchup with the other projects. I thought of peddle-pushers when I saw the sleeves, but of course, you are a youngster and didn't have to live through that style, I suspect.
That is so MO. Loved the Salamanca building. btw you gotta see the exhibit over here....
I had never heard of square root day. But I quick-like-a-bunny emailed sons #1 and #2 about it. I read that Agent Zig-Zag book shortly after reading some other fiction novel that seemed to have been based on it. Amazing story.
