Hi everyone! My name is Lauren and I'm a geotechnical and environmental engineer that just graduated from college. I love to hike and one of my favorite spots is in Southwest Virginia near the 'Burg (Blacksburg). McAfee Knob is one of the prettiest overlooks along the Appalachian Trail (yes that is me standing mere inches away from a 50 foot drop!).When I'm not tromping through the woods for fun--and by tromping I mean following neat little manicured trails that don't have Amazon-esque spiders and massive poisonous snakes visible at every bend--I'm hacking through the wilderness of my job. Now this wilderness has several different appearances, the most common being the cubicle jungle of my engineering firm and the wild of undeveloped NC--this wilderness does include Amazon sized spiders and copperheads and other creepy critters. In the future you will likely see many of the funky things that I get to see while on the job ( I met a family's pet bull named George just yesterday ) and other things in my carefully cluttered life ;).
At home I'm found to be knitting, you knew it had to come the *ahem* yarn fetish. I am a fiber fiend, a yarn fondler, and likely "wanted" in three states for petting yarn in public places. I have been successfully paring down my WIPs to the list you see at right. I plan on keeping it updated and I'm sure pictures will appear sooner or later. Anyways Grey's is coming on and a girl has to keep on top of her shows, so until next time!
Knit on and push through the wilderness, whether its your workplace or well the other parts of your life.
