9:46 am	poll The Sonnet Deliberate Gentle Love Dreamer (DGLDf) Romantic, hopeful, and composed. You are the Sonnet. Get it? Composed? Sonnets want Love and have high ideals about it. They're conscientious people, caring & careful. You yourself have deep convictions, and you devote a lot of thought to romance and what it should be. This will frighten away most potential mates, but that's okay, because you're very choosy with your affections anyway. You'd absolutely refuse to date someone dumber than you, for instance. Your exact opposite: Genghis Khunt Random Brutal Sex Master Lovers who share your idealized perspective, or who are at least willing to totally throw themselves into a relationship, will be very, very happy with you. And you with them. You're already selfless and compassionate, and with the right partner, there's no doubt you can be sensual, even adventurously so. You probably have lots of female friends, and they have a special soft spot for you. Babies do, too, at the tippy-top of their baby skulls.

4:21 pm	Hmmmmm...... Amazonian... You scored 73 Open-Mindedness, 69 Sexual Comfort, 75 Tolerance, and 72 Confidence! Whether you do or don't is besides the point but you can crush people at will. You scare the crap out of insecure people. You need a mate that can keep up and give you a run for your money. Whimps need not apply. Your strong in every sense of the word. Just try to ease up a bit when the situation does not call for dominance. My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 0% on Open-Mindedness You scored higher than 0% on Sexual Comfort You scored higher than 50% on Tolerance You scored higher than 0% on Confidence Link: The True Nature of Self (Women) Test written by Constantine_Jon on OkCupid Free Online Dating, home of the The Dating Persona Test Current Mood: bored (Comment on this)

9:45 am	Dream I had this dream last night that some people wanted to come down and tear down my grandparents house. I tried to stop them. "He built this house by himself, with his own two hands!" I said. I tried to stand in front of the bulldozers and everything. THey started chuckin things out the windows. Old rockinghorses and chests and clothes. ALl things I could remember, who wore them, who used them, what they smelled like. I was crying so hard they finally stopped. And I told them stories about my family. they sat engaged listening to me. then the alarm clock went off. Current Mood: sleepy Current Music: Groove Salad (1 Comment |Comment on this)

3:58 pm	let's try this again Adventures in sweater recycling I found the "recipe" for recycling old sweaters on the internet. Fresh from the Goodwill with our 64% lambs wool 36% nylon throw away from Old Navy, we begin. First I find the cotton thread holding together the seam (which is not easy at first) and then I start to cut. </align> After a while, I'm cutting like MAAAAAADDD!!! </align> </align> Now I have cut up the side seam to the armhole. VOILA! </align> </align> I cut the arm seam and AHA the arm comes off!!! </align> </align> My son has a little fun with hte sleeve before we start unraveling </align> </align> LET THE UNRAVELING BEGINNNNN!!!!! </align> </align> Since my kitchen table is exactly 3 feet wide, we wrap the yarn around one end (with the aid of my trusty helper!) </align> </align> YUP that's my boy!!!!! </align> </align> TADA!!! our first (sloppy) hank!!!!!! Now we will wash, hang dry and then we will try to dye it with kool-aid. I hope the percentage of wool is enuf. We did it with woolease once and it was only 20% wool. It worked OK. I think I should try vinegar though. But that's for tomorrow, it took us all night to do just the arm! Imagine how the rest of the sweater will be!!! OY! </align> </align> Current Mood: cold (Comment on this)

3:56 pm	Hmmmm.... So I have a few days before classes start up again. I can't believe I got all A's. My quantitative research class was kicking me in the ass. I'm just glad it's over. It sucks we only get a week between terms. Whatever. I'm still gonna barbecue this summer. I think I have barbecue sauce running through my veins. Gotta take the car in to be serviced tomorrow, then gotta go to the boy's parent teacher conference thingy. I don't know what we're going to do on Friday. His dad has been up and down lately since he quit coffee. Some days he's OK and some days he's scary. He'll probably ask for "the day off" and want me to be parent in charge. Then they're going to the beach till Monday. Finally, I'll get some peace and quiet. I mostly need to clean my room. It gets turned into a tornado during the term. I just don't have time when I've got to get the boy to dance, I got to write a paper, have to be at work at 7:00am, gotta do the dishes, blah blah blah...... I wish I had something more excitingto do like go out drinking or get laid. Why does getting older mean less of that? Current Mood: apathetic Current Music: Stereolab (1 Comment |Comment on this)

9:08 am	FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFTTTTTTTTT So when you see homeless men and women wandering the streets yelling at trash cans how come it's ususally something negative, derogatory or just spouts of obscenities? Why don't they go around telling lampposts they love them or trying to hug things? I read this story in the paper today. Robberies are up theses days. Petty things like stealing car radios or breaking into homes and taking jewelry, something drug addicts can hock for a fix. Well they get caught and go to jail but get out in a few months, weeks or even days due to overcrowding where they keep doing the same thing year after year. Now when you get your radio stolen from your car or your house broken into, it's just taken as an inconvenience. Insurance companys must love this. I smell a conspiracy theory. Insurance regulators and jail administrators in bed together? It really wouldn't surprise me. Also some folks who commit bigger crimes commit them because they are poor, can't get a job, etc then go to jail and get jobs working for victoria secret for pennies a day. I mean the whole prison industrial complex is just one big conspiracy as far as I am concerned. Current Mood: calm Current Music: Radiohead (Comment on this)

9:19 pm	Hey this looks like me!!!!!!! You appear to be a Knitting Purist. You are an accomplished knitter producing beautiful pieces with a classic feel. You sometimes lament losing half of your local yarn shop to garish novelty yarns. Perhaps you consider fun fur scarves the bane of knitting society and prefer to steer new knitters towards the wool and cotton blends. Some might call you a bit of an elitist but you know that you've been doing this craft long enough to respect the history behind it and honor it with beautiful piece that can last a lifetime. http://marniemaclean.com What Kind of Knitter Are You? brought to you by Quizilla Current Mood: tired Current Music: Talking Heads (Comment on this)

9:10 am	I hate school today I hate this. All that first year of the doctoral program, I had theories and formulas and all this information thrown at me but I had no idea how to use it. This year, ill stumps us with the question “what is the nature of reality?” and all that information comes flooding back. But rather than spend this term answer such a huge question, we have a couple of weeks and we can only answer in 3-5 pages. This is so ass backwards. Why not ask us the nature of reality in the very first class and spend time developing knowledge and gathering it into a context rather than just throw it at us blindly then roadside us a year later with it? This is stoopid. How am I supposed to define the nature of reality in 3 days? I also have to draw a self portrait of myself for my creativity class that is a representation of my “good” self and my “bad’ self that I can use as a representation of myself as a goddess. I also have to develop a curriculum for a course on women in education. I also have to teach my son to play piano. And to be nice to people and to himself. And to take him to dance class. And I have to clean the kitchen constantly cuz it is being taken over by ants cuz Roger won’t clean up after himself. He just makes a mess and then goes and sits on the couch all day. And then I have to work in this stoopid computer lab with computers breaking every 5 minutes and having people yell at me as if I broke them. And I don’t get enough sleep, I don’t eat right, I don’t have time to exercise. And I still hate my mother. Current Mood: pissed off Current Music: Talking Heads (Comment on this)
