Finished the ribbing

 This is 18 rounds of 244 stitches, k2, p2. All the bottom ribbing for the Moon Moth sweater.

I ran out of steam (really: concentration to evenly space 10 increases around the round) to start on the larger needles/stockinette section

Today was the start-of-the-semester meetings so it was sitting and hearing different talks all morning. (They cut off the after-lunch talk because it was "the new Title IX considerations" and apparently there was an INJUNCTION that stopped them, so they can't be applied, so.... yeah, great. I don't like chaos/uncertainty) A lot of it was actually aimed at people who teach exclusively online and I don't know what the breakdown is of "all online" vs. "all in person" faculty, but I get the feeling the people who teach 100% online are not a majority. But a lot of schools want to emphasize that hard. (I am not convinced "all online" is the way of the future, or that it's a WISE way to go, at least for some disciplines - lab sciences are very hard to do well 100% online because virtual labs are often a poor substitute for working with actual stuff in the lab)

But at any rate: I'm tired, and have another day of it tomorrow.
