preferably not stumbling, facebook creeping, or knitting. haha
read books, comics, get an internet boyfriend and make him bring you soup, watch all the Star Wars movies in one weekend, music and mixes, sell all your crap on ebay, origami, pen the great Americ...Canadian novel, make jewelery, robotics, found object art, or just learn to draw, crochet, film a reality show, gambling, interior design, you could get an aquarium, research theology and find a new religion, make a new blog, learn to cook, financial planning, learn flash animation, you could do your homework, or my personal favorite...video games (maybe not wii fit)

what a brilliant list!! you could also read every post on the CM
what i want to know is whats wrong with knitting? you could make yerself a sweater.
also as Sand said be careful pushing the healing. I trashed my ankle about 15 years ago and to this day it is wonky and likes to turn out. I didnt have the patience or the time to stay off it being a student and a mom and working. take it easy and if you miss some summer sports look at it as an investment in your future.

I don't get knitting. There are a few people here who will bring their yarn to class and knit while listening to lectures. That's out of control.

haha i absolutely love that you called knitters out of control. they are going to take over the city!! or at least, keep it warm.
i don't know. i just am not a big knitting fan.
i like your list of things.

but i've still stuck to wandering the internet.. haha. i'm sitting at school now, since i can't get a ride home for another few hours.
oh the life of a cripple....
as for summer sports... this summer was my last opportunity to really do what i wanted, and those were definitely on the list. oh well. fucking bones. why can't they be made out of something that isn't breakable? just an idea. lol

Really? you aim to have an internet boyfriend? Let me tell you, it's not as glamorous as it sounds. There are often UFO obsessions that lurk beneath the surface.

Then they share interests with me.

kniiting is cool, but i'll take crocheting over it any day

crocheting is hard. i got a crochet hook & everything, but i can't get the hang of it.
KNITTING, on the other hand, is amazing. i finished knitting my dinosaur. i think i'm going to knit a big dinosaur pillow next. rawrrr!!

Dom I love that you are knitting dinosaurs!! I don't mind crocheting either...it is way faster. You can whip up a blanket/afghan in a couple of nights of tv watchin.
on the second sleeve of this knitted hoodie/bunny hug that is looking way too big but i dont mind after all i had envisioned it for camping and stuff like that.

I love crocheting. My grandmother has been crocheting blankets for more than 25 years - I have three or four that she made for me, she's made at least one for every single member of our family, and our family is HUGE. She's working on one for my cousin's baby (that is supposed to be born this week)!!

Such crafty CMers! I can't knit or crochet, but I used to needlepoint. But that's easy.

My Dad met the coach of the Habs and got a jersey signed. Him and my mom flew out to Montreal to watch a Canadiens game and to tour around Montreal.
