Long productive day

Got up kind of late and made my way to the workshop by about 1pm. Stayed until 7, cleaning and grinding metal, and laying on base coats of enamel so I can be all creative tomorrow. I'm filthy.
Anyone who thinks that making jewelry is this dainty, "nice" hobby had better not get downwind of me after a long day in the workshop. Phew.
Got the stitches out of my knee yesterday, and was told that the meniscus tear was really, really bad. As in a complete split bad. My knees have always been crappy, but a combination of lots of sports that work knees hard (fencing, martial arts, baseball) and my weight gain have done a number on the right one. I have the knee of a 70-year-old. Joy. So, unless I want the thrill of a total knee replacement in the next 5-10 years, I have to lose the weight.
The World's Best Niece and the OMG!Boyfriend saw Source Code last night:
It's totally and completely Quantum Leap as imagined by an evil scientist, down to using Scott Bakula's voice for a critical part. However, the director (who also directed Moon, one of the best SF movies ever), never lets things devolve into pathos or cliche. Very well done.
tl;dr, go see it. worth the money.
