		<title>A photo of Penny, and Other Things</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I haven&#8217;t posted a photo of my cat since a couple Christmases ago. I think it&#8217;s safe to post another, without being annoying. But like the Christmas Tinsel photo, this one does an excellent job of hiding Penny&#8217;s weight problem, which she is in denial of. We are hoping the beautiful weather lately will prompt [...]]]></description>

		<title>First Project of the Year</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I started this project last year, when we found out we were expecting a baby. I figured I would be lucky to finish it before the baby arrived, because it had been almost a year since I&#8217;d really knit anything. I surprised myself and finished it earlier than I expected I would.

		<title>2009 in Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since I didn&#8217;t blog very much in 2009, I want to take this new year&#8217;s opportunity to review the highlights of the year.

January: Marked the first semester in four and a half years that I did not participate in registering, attending, enjoying, or suffering through a single class at Lander University or PTC. I had [...]]]></description>

		<title>Debriefing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We bought a really adorable little house in town and are still getting settled. We love it.
The house came with thirty pounds of dog hair. I considered saving it for a fiber genius like Jessi to spin into yarn for a sweater, but I accidentally threw it away.
There is color on the walls of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>A raincoat and a book and some boring souvenirs for you&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been struggling to get photos together from my trip, and for whatever reason, I&#8217;ve had the hardest time figuring out how to use iPhoto in conjunction with Photoshop to edit my pictures. Apparently, iPhoto has this cool but confusing feature where it will maintain the original version of your photo that you imported, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Merry Christmas!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am pleasantly surprised to find that the relief I feel from the culmination of my academic career, formalized by my graduation ceremony (diploma still pending), grows with every passing day, despite its initial lack of cathartic euphoria. I had expected that the moment I finished my final assignment, I would immediately feel the rising [...]]]></description>

		<title>Holidays</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, the holidays have officially arrived, being marked by the short Thanksgiving work-week. I know every year I say that they have sneaked up on me, but we all know this isn&#8217;t true. Holidays, as with any exciting milestone in life, hold such hopes and anticipation that when they finally arrive, we feel that there [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wanted to give a heads-up that the site will be undergoing some changes here in a few weeks/months, but I realize that my intention was slightly less for your benefit than for mine &#8211; I have hopes that by making promises to you that things will change, I will encourage myself to actually follow [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s Memories That I&#8217;m Stealing&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As promised, I have some photos from the Tom Waits show. He played in Atlanta at the Fox Theater, and this is the second time I&#8217;ve had the wonderful opportunity to see him live. As you can tell from the photos, I did not have quite the incredible seat that I had at the first [...]]]></description>
