"I know that I know nothing"....yeah, Socrates. You see where I'm going with that?
Perfect timing that I finished my Hemlock Ring Blanket.
Dr.
D's away on another wedding this weekend and I need to study for my
diploma exams that's coming in mid-September. The weather is turning
into Autumn, i.e. it's cooler now and it's been raining and drizzling.
So I can snuggle my legs under my blanket and study away. Perfect
weather for such a thing and a cuppa to go with it.
....and yes,
I'm sitting on the floor. Sometimes I like to sit on the floor. And if
you want to know, I've got Beethoven's Symphonies running in the
background. ;-)
And if it still hasn't dawn on you: I study
political science...and with the theories, I have to read Socrates and
the likes. This being a Hemlock Ring Blanket, I find that it is a kind
of funny coincidence that the blanket be named "Hemlock",
which is the poison extracted from the plant Conium, which is also
commonly known as poisonous hemlock, which they used to executed
Socrates. ;-)
Here are the rest of the photos. Have a great and better weekend than mine, everyone!
