Two ripple blankets at once - is it humanely possible?

So I've taken it to a new level - I am now working on two ripple blankets. Am I crazy? Perhaps. But I've promised my friend that I'll have a ripple for her for her bridal shower (May 26th), and gosh darnit, a blanket she'll have! I bought the yarn for said blanket yesterday (she picked out the colours last week, and I added an extra shade because I have spare yarn in that hue), and plotted out the blanket using the Random Stripe Generator. I even added the details to my artsy journal, as you'll notice from the following photo:

And since yesterday, I have accomplished an additional three colours: a total of six more stripes. Now, I'm off to snack, call boyfriend, and add to the ripple sensation.
