i like the older stuff better

OK, I’m sorry. I was stressing out last week b/c of the kids. I apologize if I wasn’t my usual bouncy perky self. This week has been a 1000x better. I worked with the band director at school, all the teachers, as well as directly with Middle Master Waster. She’s still got no driver’s license, and she’s on a REALLY tight leash at school, but she’s staying in the guard for now. She’s on double-secret Delta House probation, but she’s still with the team. I think we’re on a pretty good road to success now, too. I finished all the midterms for my classes over the past few days. I’ve got a bit of tension with one of the professors, but it’s nothing that I can’t win. He’s being a real slacker in regards to his communications and responsiveness, so he’s holding up a number of people within the class. We had a nice little dinner last night for V-Day. We hung out with no kids at a neighborhood restaurant, followed by a trip up to Baskin-Robbins for dessert. Good stuff, too, except for the ‘tard at the counter giving me the wrong flavor. He exchanged it for me after a minute, but not before I was already scarred. Instead of blackberry ribbon with nuts, I got lowfat strawberry swirl. It hurts to find out you don’t have any nuts. None. I was nutless. This weekend should be a good one. I’m chaperoning a marching band competition all day on Saturday, and working on a doll house on Sunday. The doll house is a monster, too. It’s about 4 feet long, and at least 2 ½ feet tall. Not quite big enough for me to sleep in it, but cool nonetheless. Happy three day weekend! Was this email perky enough to keep you all from whining about how I darkened your entire day last week? ============================== Net disaster!

It works especially well on the myspaces of people you don’t like. http://netdisaster.com/ NLOS is a KAG b/c it MMFL I’m a real GI. “DYFLID?” – Peter Frampton http://dsc.discovery.com/tv/future-weapons/games/cannon/cannon.html Pearl Jam / Gravity game….

More style, more punch. And, in the case of Microsoft, more boogie nights, too. http://www.neatorama.com/2008/02/07/the-evolution-of-tech-companies-logos Just another foggy day in San Francisco. http://hd-sf.com/gallery/fogrise/player.html
