My mom is sending positive vibes my way. It’s my half-birthday, you see. She hopes that this will be my year…it’s about time.
There is a fine line between needing to study and needing to write. One is something I have to do, and should do, and the other is something I dearly want to do, and feel like I can be good at. Eh. Silly classes. And here I am entertaining the idea of pursuing a master’s.
laissez les bons temps roulez, and all that. Wear your green and gold and purple (which one do you think I chose to wear today?). Eat a king cake. See you on the flip side.
Happy Chinese New Year! 2007 is the Year of the Pig and also the end of the 12 year cycle of the Chinese Zodiac. I’s supposed to be a prosperous year, though apparently Pigs and Monkeys don’t get along so well…
Happy Valentine’s Day. I hope you have someone special to share it with. Here’s hoping that next year, so will I.
All day long I’ve been watching the snow fall outside. It’s pretty as long as you don’t think about driving in it. The view from the window at the lab includes a platform that used to support the garage that stood over the Metrolink tracks, but the garage got demolished some years ago. However, the platform stands, I assume because it would be too much of a hassle to Metrolink to take it down (the car cable is attached to the underside) and it’s possibly going to become part of the new building to take the garage’s place (when that might be I have no idea).
Anyway, for the past few days, there’s been a green plastic soda bottle sitting on the platform, probably thrown up there by someone unconcerned with littering. The wind hadn’t blown it off, so today it slowly got buried as the snow continued to fall. There’s a tiny sliver of green still showing, so at least we know the amount of snow on top of the platform was at least the width of a soda bottle…
took entirely too long to write that, I suppose, but you know me. Never concise when I can be verbose.
Here is a public service reminder from et dot com: if it’s snowy/icy/sleety outside, DO NOT try to drive fast. I know I complain that St. Louis drivers get no respect (I’ve never been in an accident that I caused) but seriously, folks. Do yourself a favor and slow down. Turn your headlights on (which is LAW if your wipers are on).
As my roommate says, there are three things you need to worry about when driving in wet/snow conditions. You can accelerate, stop, or turn, but only one at a time. She should know, because she’s from Ohio. Be safe out there. Hope the weather clears before it’s time to go home…
Got an email from Friere Jesus today. mmm, spam.
Also cleaning out a smelly freezer. Joy.
But the over-priced Josh Groban CD that I got from Hallmark last night was worth it. Even if only for one song. Or two.
It makes me sad to realize that I haven’t written a word of T6R since January. Nothing saved to a file, anyway. There are all sorts of notes and things written on my last hard copy. So if I lose my bag, I’m SOL. But there are other things on my mind. Soon, I hope, I’ll have some time to devote to writing.
(Listening to Josh Groban’s With You)
…of the hundreds of books that I own. Perhaps one day I will figure out where to put this in the sidebar…until then, it gets an entry.
It’s the last hurrah on the work computer.

Lancelot
You scored 21 chivalry! |
You’re on the upper end of the good range of chivalry. You’ve got a good handle on how to treat someone well, probably better than they’re used to, and generally you don’t go over the top and make them feel incompetent or idolized. Assuming your reasons are pure, you are the anti-jerk. |

A Goat Herd
You scored 21 alien-ness, 36 mythical-ness, 48 angelic-ness, and 23 regal-ness! |
The Goat Herd In your last life you lived in poverty, but were always proud of your own freedom. You had nothing – but the song of the birds, the wind in the trees, the crowing of a rooster ment everything to you. You were strongly tied to your friends and family and would give all your patience and time to those you loved. Another profession you might have taken was: Wandering Minstral Miner Mother/Home maker Housemaid Groom Sheep Dog/Hunting Dog/Family Pet At your best you were brave, protective and gentle At your worst you were hopeless, stupid and clumsy Your experience of poverty and suffering in this past life gives you a great empathy and understanding of people. If you choose to love them and do something for the community or the world you’ll be great at it! |
