Sharpie Lamborghini Possibly the most amazing thing of all time? A Lamborghini all tricked out with Sharpie'd-on designs. (This is the kind of stuff I doodle while on the phone. Next time I'll doodle on something other than paper.) Click the image to see more.  |

quickie update
Remember when I used to actually write in paragraphs?
- Max has officially weaned from his pre-bedtime nursing. He only nurses when he first wakes up in the morning. I hope he'll hang on to that until he's 2, because I'm a completionist. I might even stop wearing nursing tops around him. I have about 15 of them. Need any?
- This past weekend I did some scrapbooking. It was awesome. Imperfect and fun and rewarding. Will do it again.
- This next weekend we're going to the California State Fair on Friday and Sunday, and rafting on the American River on Saturday. I'm bit worried about the packing, sunburn potential, drowning potential, not getting pictures of Max on the river, yadda yadda. General mom worries.
- Work is the suck. I love my job, but it is too much work for the hours. Worse than that, I don't get hours to do my work, I get 3 minutes between frantic phone calls from people. If they would all call at the same time, then I could actually get enough work done to help them.
- Work bought me a Blackberry. So far it's fun.
- I have officially, sadly, given up on Keens. Tried on 5 pairs, and none fit just right. Poo. Zappos is going to hate me.
- Olympics are the biggest time sink ever! By the way, know someone I can stay with in Vancouver 2010? |

Heart walk Last year the kids and I went on the heart walk. We're going to do it again, Saturday Sept 13. If you would care to donate, the team page is http://heartwalk.kintera.org/faf/r.asp?t=12&i=262056&g=3140594Thanks. If you're wondering why it's still zero, I haven't donated to any of us yet because I'm seeing if I can get my workplace to match. |

Perception Personality Image Test Your result for The Perception Personality Image Test... NBPS - The Idealist
You perceive the world with particular attention to nature. You focus on the hidden treasures of life (the background) and how that fits into the larger picture. You are also particularly drawn towards the shapes around you. Because of the value you place on nature, you tend to find comfort in more subdued settings and find energy in solitude. You like to ponder ideas and imagine the many possibilities of your life without worrying about the details or specifics. You are in tune with all that is around you and understand your life as part of a larger whole. You prefer a structured environment within which to live and you like things to be predictable. The Perception Personality Types:  Take The Perception Personality Image Test at HelloQuizzy This one is fun to take and very interesting (to me at least). The analysis is completely on target, though I think the final sentence is stronger than my actual feeling. ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) magentamn pointed out this one. |

GAD, it's been a long time.  I'm just beginning to revisit the computer a bit. I had a problem with a detached retina. The surgery went well and healing went well, but a tiny bit slow, not that I minded. In fact, I felt as if I could sacrifice the eye if I could get disability and not go back to school. The problems were worse by the end of the school year. The mistrust and discontent was a constant fog we had to wade through. I found it incredible that so many excellent teachers were so totally convinced that they felt they were on the principal's "bigot" list, tormented with phone calls from parents whose children they never taught who demanded to know why they hated Arabs. School board meeting was postponed last week to this, so no one knows if they have dealt with the issues particular to our school. Of course, it might be hard to do so considering that there's a new superintendent who still has to feel his way around the district. In addition there are the contract issues to vote on, as well as an administrative retirement buy-out offer and that leads to some shuffling of personnel. I guess Ms. G. could be right: Our principal could be moved to central offices. Would he be harmless there? Dunno. Current Mood:  contemplative |
