Dear Mother Nature ( Read more... )

I had this totally bizarro dream last night where it was down to the wire in the election, and the Republicans decided to really grill Obama's running mate on various aspects of the vice presidency, in an attempt to prove that Obama's choice in running mates was just as unqualified for the job as everyone was claiming Sarah Palin is. Turns out in ( Read more... )

Last night I dreamed that, for some reason, I'd gotten stranded in Minnesota and had to canoe my way down the Mississippi River in order to get home. Oddly, I actually got pretty far before I got to a point where canoing any further was too dangerous, and I would have to hike diagonally cross-country to certain point on the Ohio River. I was just ( Read more... )

Last night I dreamed that I was taking care of a caterpillar. After "months" of tender care, the caterpillar made its chrysalis, and when it emerged, it was a baby girl instead of a butterfly, and no one in my dream would help me learn to take care of her.

Mom's monitor (which was my original one from my first computer) frizzled out last night. It went "Click, click click, fizzzzzzzzz..." and that was the end of the monitor. She was goign to get rid of her old computer anyway and we were goign to share mine while I'm still living at home, we just hadn't gotten around to transfering her files and ( Read more... )

I keep having these bizarre dreams this week, and the kicker is that I wake up from them more tired than when I went to bed. Last night I dreamt that there was an alumni band concert going on, but it was all "after hours" in the high school and we had to sneak in to get our instruments. I could NOT find my clarinet, and then once I did it was in ( Read more... )

I had a very nice dream last night. In it I was myself, and yet not myself. I got to run through the countryside around a British manor house in springtime and make out with Orlando Bloom.

Needless to say, I was a happy girl when I woke up this morning. Plus I feel remarkably rested.

I'd had an absolutely horrible day at work yesterday - my meeting in the morning went well, but Jacob was just awful. I mean, there is a definite difference between his autism and just plain being naughty. And he was being naughty. Plus he refused to eat any lunch - maybe in protest of having to eat a dastardly three whole kernals of corn! I ( Read more... )

I got a thing in the mail today from Trinity Catholic, wanting me to fill out another whole application for the Diocese. Was the sentence in my letter about how my complete application is on file at the Catholic Schools Office not clear? I really think they do this to us just to see how determined we are to be employed ( Read more... )

Last night I burned CDs for Barb to use at resttime, including a mish-mosh of the "pretty" songs from LOTR. She totally loved the mix, so I think I'm going to burn her copies of the three soundtracks ( Read more... )
