horrible, horrible dream
last night i had a strange and terrible dream. in a nutshell, sophie's school had a little-known clause in its bylaws that allowed teachers to lay the death penalty on students who broke any of a handful of bizarre rule-combos. soph broke one of them: joining chorus without being willing to sing a solo, in tandem with not memorizing her times ( Read more... ) -

thanks for all the feedback, honeys! i'm so glad you all are part of my borg.
i'm becoming reacquainted with my diva cup this month, because not only am i tired of going through packs and packs of spendy pads and tampons (i use the schmancy unbleached organic ones, because otherwise my bits are unhappy with me), but new kitty tagalong has more than ( Read more... ) -

i need a home shaved ice/sno cone maker, that can possibly accomodate a dozen or more snow cones over the course of a couple hours. anyone know of one that doesn't suck, and doesn't cost a whole lot?

Go Me! Vol. 1
I am taking a cue from my awesome kidlet and am going to try to think/say/write positive things about myself periodically. Even (especially) congratulating myself on the boring day-to-day things, because those common things are victories, too! I recommend you do it as well.

- When I make that final payment ( Read more... )

kid post
Got Sophie's progress report in the mail yesterday. Her teacher asked each kid to "reflect
on their year and if they could write their own report cards, what would they say." Here's Soph's answer:
