Thy Neighbor
Oh, the time I spend obsessed with me, my friends. It is obscene. But here's the thing. I also spend lots of time thinking about you. About your likes, your family, your loves, your fears, what motivates you and how I can see you smile, and whether or not you'll hold my hand today, because that is what drives my fearlessness. I flirt with you ( Read more... ) -
Adventures in wonderland
One recurrent theme in my classes and life: Always be forward-looking. One fatal flaw that many of my previous managers had were complacency and a failure to look forward to the next project or improvement they could be working on. It can be tiring, but keeping an eye on the future is a really important aspect of being a leader, because if you don' ( Read more... ) -

I have been attempting to put together a story for...oh about 10 years, now. I think all would-be writers have one story that they ( Read more... ) -
A very musical Christmas

Courtney and Orion gave to me a tambourine, some rythm sticks and a couple of shakers.
J gave to me (well, it is on it's way) a beautiful star shaped tambourine.
He also gave to me some J-made goldfish stickers to label everything with! VERY exciting stuff.
I have instruments to bring to the drum retreat! Hooray!
Yesterday we took a ( Read more... ) -

Productive day
I'm trying to have a productive day in which I pay some attention to my poor, neglected nest. The husband creature is off at work and for once I don't have a group-meeting, long paper or any other pending documents. Finals week is next week. I've done all the big stuff, but now I need to scrub the bathroom, and mop floors. I hate doing these chores ( Read more... )
