- I feel dreadfully boring.
- I am not fashionable, this is true. My Tanzania “look” however. Is painful. Long skirt, t-shirt or flowy blouse. Lets top that with my gardening hat, and bottom it with my “corrective shoes” because my achillies is kicking up. Ouch. I go to Tanzania, and suddenly I am amish.
- Trying to cleanup around the house and I keep stalling out in the upstairs sitting room. Perhaps tomorrow I try again.
- Anybody in seattle want to adopt the cat I named? Check it.
- Still boring.

- Am worried that my “sassy number” though shortened in straps, now feels awkward. It is a little too wide in the bodice. I mean, it looks OK, I think (party anxiety setting in, so all bets are off) but eventually I think further alterations are in order.
- Almost all the altar guild paperwork is ready. must finish (start) the roster tomorrow.
- And get a haircut, though this has nothing to do with Altar Guild.
- And get a spare key made for the aumbry.
- Big moment today at the gym, as Captain Asskick promoted me to the treadmill routine “Turtle 2.” It wiped me out, but so did “Turtle 1″ back in the old days (june). I also have, if you look very closely, some sort of dent in my arms, that could be the start of what might be called “guns” by those in the workout community. Woo!

- Once again it is almost 11 and I have a trip tomorrow, and nothing is packed. OK, no more posting until I am ready to go…time now…10:42.
- Alright so it took to 1:08
- and now it is 2:07. I suspect I am not very good at this sort of thing. I did fold alot of laundry and write a letter to the Altar Guild, and earlier in the evening a recommendation for my student teacher.
- It is rather shocking that the whole effort resulted in three identical blouses(different colors) two identical sweaters (different colors) and two similar skirts and pants. And assorted Miscellany. It is still all too much and all too little.
- But I am off! A few hours sleep and too the plane. I’ll try to Twitter on the trip. Huzzah for vacation and adventure!

- Why can’t I find any of my pants? And why does dressed up mean the same grey pants and a black sweater?
- My sweet digital TV gets channel 4.3. Do you know what 4.3 has been showing this afternoon? LIVE coverage of the 2010 Team Curling Trails. Hell Yeah. They even have little drawing on the screen of where the optimal placement of the next stone would be. Jason Smith is shooting 94% after two ends. That’s what I am talking about Jason. Broom that ice baby.
- I sometimes hit fallow points in my crafting when I don’t feel like knitting or sewing etc. This is a shame since I have two scarves promised as Christmas presents on the needles. Sorry Mom and AB. I’m an artist (pronounced ar-teest). I must wait for the muse.
- I do have an urge to paint. Or perhaps bang pieces of tin with a hammer, but that would require the purchase of new equipment.
- Off to dinner. Better find my pants now.

- SOL Testing this week. Horrible. Crazy schedule. Everyone acts like there is not going to be any more teaching after this. I’ve got news for you. If I have to come to school? We are going to do something.
- Getting warmer outside. Woke up in the middle of the night because it was hot upstairs. Trying to hold off on the air conditioning as long as possible.
- The Prom is this Friday. I am going with some other teachers. My fist prom since I was a freshman in high school!
- I have a snappy red and white dress to wear.
- An outstanding entry from the always great Cute Overload: The Ennui of Henri.
