I'm at knit camp. This is a knitting retreat I organize, intended to be inexpensive ($200 for the weekend including all meals, vs like $1200 you'd pay at other retreats). So we're inhabiting a dorm at a former college turned event venue/restaurant/retreat venue. The food was really good, and served in the former dining hall as a buffet. It was, hands down, the best buffet food I've ever had. Right now I'm in my room, which is a former dorm room. Two twin beds, but at least I don't have a roommate (I could do, I just didn't want one). The bathroom a bit down the hall. The other folks at the knitting retreat are hanging out in the lounge in the center of the dorm and their talking is echoing down the hall (it's not even 10 yet, I'm just tired).

This is just a delight. It's like the good bits of dorm life but none or few of the bad bits. Though I do have to schlep outside to get to the dining hall, at least it's a short walk away.

This is a good place to forget about the world for a little while. And I'mma work so hard on the hat I'm making tomorrow.

Right this moment, life is good.
