Let's Get It On, II

Sorry to have interrupted your regularly
scheduled program,
but that was some nasty sh*t you just don't forget [WS, MIB].

But I have Lysoled my foot, and the spot in the hallway,
so all should be good, right?

On with life.
You know, between us bloggers,
I'd probably feel better if I could let out
a tremendous howl . . . my partner _has_ left for work . . .

If you must know, here are a few things going on with me,
in my mundane life, right now:


[*] a friend of a friend's daughter is turning 13 on July 9th.
This is a wonderful, special young girl. My friend's friend wants
to do something special for the daughter, but after 13 years, has
ran out of ideas. At the same time, I've talked to the daughter
and she would just be happy with a few friends over--she thinks.
She really doesn't know what she wants at this age.

What would be a fantastic way to celebrate 13 wonderful years?

{btw--I can still feel the bird's squirminess under my toes}


[*] I imagine that if I had my own children and we were trampling
around South America this week, it would be much harder than I expected.
A stack of books about the Amazon would be on the coffee table,
but the kids would probably lay around on the floor
begging to go out in the pool or to play a video game.
I bet it would be so hard just to get
the little buggers to remember 5 facts about South America--not alone
complete projects like imaginative narratives and mosiac masks.
Sigh. But I would try.
I bet Twin A would be a little frustrated on Day Two of the trip
and ask when we were ever getting on the fricken plane.


[*] I'm making vast progress on putting together
my classes for this fall. Seriously.
I start each morning at 9am and finish by either 1pm or 3pm.
I've looked at the pics of some students
and have vowed to learn their names before the first day.
Soon I will have interesting tidbits
from my WS and ENG152 to post on here. Soon.

[*] I haven't started Html yet. Figure.

[*] Habitat for Humanity finally called back--what to do???!

[*] My yoga stances are becomeing more strengthened, more centered.
Meanwhile, I have pushed my spirituality to the corners of my mind.
This bothers me, but I can't quite face up to it--

[*] I _am_ reading. And I am thinking about what I read.
I just don't want to talk about it. Haven't seen any good films lately.
Although, I have heard alot about _Lava Girl and Shark Boy_ . . .

[*] I've begun a project in the basement. It's not a
TOP SECRET project or anything.

[*] Sigh. I haven't felt "it" (the desire to blog some insight)
since I came back from NC . . . well, except the grocery post--
which was fun, but days ago. I think it's all the summer anesthesia.

~~Gotta go: I have an urge to go spray my foot again~~
