Ellen is knitting a scarf

There is one thing I can count on every year - year after year and that's me getting sick any time the weather starts to change.  It was nearly 50 here last week which means I currently have the worst cold I've ever had in my life.  I can't breathe, all of my muscles ache and I'm just no fun to be around.  I'm going to the doctors tomorrow to make sure that it's only a cold but in the mean time guess what I'm doing with all of my sick time? 

What kind of evil professor gives you homework on a weekend?  Turns out, all of my online classes do.  All of my homework is due on Saturdays and Wednesdays but I think my math teacher particularly hates me because he has about 30 to 40 problems due every day on Fridays through Mondays.  Grr!  All I want to do is watch the Misfits and wallow in the fact that I can't get off the couch.  I was quite pleased that today's set of problems had a knitting question though.  :)  If only I could take a math class where every problem was knitting related, I would surely pass it with flying colors.
