It’s out of my hands

Monday, April 25th, 2005

My research paper, that is. I sent my paper in to the Effective Writing Center last week and got my critique back on Friday. Last night I finished it up and turned it in this evening.

I did my best. I am finished! It might be another week before I have a [...]

Friendly Friday #5

Friday, April 22nd, 2005

Friendly Friday is back, but will be condensed this week. You’ll get the source and the link, but no other pretty words. (I got my critique back of my paper and will be spending the weekend finishing it up). Enjoy!

Stargate: Atlantis

Friday, April 22nd, 2005

First episode: drone almost downs helicopter with these two guys inside.

Major John Sheppard: That was different.
General Jack O’Neill: For me…not so much.

I laugh, every time.

First draft is finished!

Wednesday, April 20th, 2005

I turned in my research paper to the Effective Writing Center last night for review and editing. Within 48 hours I should get it back with changes that need to be made. I’m just glad the worst of it is over. I’m thinking by the end of the weekend I will have [...]

Light…end…tunnel…soon

Monday, April 18th, 2005

I’m almost finished with my paper. Technically, I have to have 15 more lines, less if my name goes on each page within the margins. Personally, I have two paragraphs left, one rather large. That’s okay. I’m really close. Yay!

I should be back soon.

Little quotes from our house

Sunday, April 17th, 2005

Things Flash said at our house this week:

You’re the greatest mom I ever had.

I eat this all the time…sometimes.

How is your food going? (waits for Daddy’s answer) Yummy?

I got the research paper blues

Friday, April 15th, 2005

I am still alive, just very busy working on my research paper. In fact, Friendly Friday links will have to wait a couple of days. The more I work on my paper, the more stressed I feel and the less I feel I know about this information. All in all, it’s been [...]

A helpful tip

Monday, April 11th, 2005

For those of you who like to scuba dive or even snorkel, here’s one piece of advice.
You don’t have to swim faster than the shark. You just have to swim faster than your buddy.

Hee hee.

Get out your address book…she has moved.

Saturday, April 9th, 2005

Caltechgirl has decided to move her blogging digs. She is now up and operational at http://caltechgirlsworld.mu.nu. Make sure you keep your links updated so she can keep her status as a Large Mammal (I am so jealous) in the ecosystem.

I hope the move was a smooth one.

Friendly Friday #4

Saturday, April 9th, 2005

It’s Friday again and time for links, links, links. Here we go.

Tartan Day arrived this week and Ith rolled out the red carpet for all blogs involved. Wow.

Jay gives us his opinion on an article regarding what makes a man an adult. Every person has their own pace and their own [...]

If you’ve ever had problems with your computer…

Thursday, April 7th, 2005

you might enjoy this little video. The Windows icons have a little battle amongst themselves. Can you guess who the winner is?

I thought it was rather funny.

Say what?

Tuesday, April 5th, 2005

While the kids were having their swim lesson yesterday a mom came with her kids and sat down near me. Her little boy is in Pre-K and her daughter is in kindergarten or 1st grade. She put them in the life vests and told them to stay in the shallow (4 ft) end. [...]

Bet this doesn’t happen everyday

Sunday, April 3rd, 2005

I was participating in the Lord’s Supper (communion) this morning during the service. (Our wafers are thin disks with an indented x in the middle about 1/2 in diameter.) While the pastor was talking I wondered if the wafer would be soft because of the humidity so I gently bent it to see [...]

Blog-dad? Faux-pa?, step/blogfather?

Sunday, April 3rd, 2005

Whatever you want to call him, I’m getting one. My blogmom Sarahk is getting married, to none other than the one and only FrankJ. I’m not sure how that makes me related to him and I’m pretty sure there will be no favors for being related to a celebrity, but nonetheless, it’s [...]

Friendly Friday #3

Saturday, April 2nd, 2005

In continuation of Ith’s Tartan Day festivities she has a link and a photo of William Wallace’s sword.

I figure it’s pretty hard to quit smoking, so let’s all go and congratulate Deb for being smoke-free for over a year. Great job!

Free time. We’re always looking for it and BeeBee’s coworkers think she’s got [...]
