Good to see you around! I still have books for you. I thought you had moved (read that someplace on a post I think) so wasn't sure to send or not. I have about 10 books for you in bubble envelopes ready to go!

I went to an electronics store today. Sadly, I didn't come home with speakers or a stereo. I got a line-in cable to plug my iPhone into some mini-component stereos and plugged the phone into a myriad of PC speakers. I think I'm off the Audio Technica a bit. They were the best sounding PC speakers but the price tag is a bit too steep. I can get a small component stereo for a bit more money and get much better sound. I spent about an hour plugging my iPhon

I should be clear about this. I am not taking anti-depression medication. DHA (Docosahexaenoic acid) is the kind of nutrient one gets from fish oil and it is good for the brain. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Docosahexaenoic_acid . If you are feeling blah, you should take a close look at your diet. A lot of the symptoms of vitamin

Three more weeks of the kindergarten assistant gig. It's been fun but those mornings play havoc with my system. Despite my best intentions, I return to my night-owl ways every weekend. I started taking vitamins so that is helping with my energy level and since it finally warmed up, I don't feel like I'm eating like a pig all the time. Best of all, I finally got over my cold. At last! Did some pictures for an event. I think it could be a good way to

No action accomplished on the quest for speakers yet. I went to the electronics store but had to print pictures before they closed so no time to check out speakers. Today I was so tired after work I didn't even remember I wanted to look at speakers. Not to mention how out of the way it would be for me. Blah. Oh, well. Work equals being able to get speakers so I will have to wait a few more days.

Anytime I wanted to listen to music other that with headphones, I've had to turn on the Playstation3 and the TV. I'm not the biggest fan of this method. The PS3 kicks out a lot of heat (nice in winter but evil in summer) and the TV takes up a lot of energy. I've got an iPhone and an old nano that I am going to hook up to some speakers and thus, have I entered the murky waters of confusion. The easiest fix is just to buy a set of cheap portable speakers, plug the st

I enjoyed reading it because it was such a nice account of what seemed to be a pretty calm, in control birth. I'm really glad to hear that your choices were respected and that things worked out pretty much as you expected. My husband and I are thinking about trying to have kids (if this is possible) and it's nice to read an account that doesn't involve a lot of life and death or high drama. It was really beautiful and encouraging.

To be honest, I doubt Bush or Obama had much to do with the gifts selected. So blaming or praising either one of them is really pointless. In terms of the gifts, the pen sound great and books nice, Topshop... not a fan. As for what the US gave, I'd think the helicopter's success really depends on how much the boys like helicopters. I don't particularly care where it came from. The DVDs seem pretty lame. However, most Brits I know own region free DVD playe

[quote who="Tova7" comment="2"] I must be really out of touch with the movies these days, cause I haven't heard of this one. Ditto. But I do like Hugh so I'll look for it. [/quote] This movie was out a few years ago. The movie was released in 2006 in the US and in the summer of 2007 in Japan. I missed it here that summer because I was in Calgary visiting folks. I just saw it on a cable movie channel.

I was walking home today while listening to the soundtrack for "The Fountain". It was just a little past sunset, the streets were kind of quiet but I could see a few people walking home or out walking their dog. The air was still holding a bit of chill but I was bundled up in my coat and scarf. It was such a beautiful, contemplative walk home with just a hint of melancholy with this music.

Continuing my tradition of untimely movie reviews, here is mine of The Fountain. I generally won't see a movie because of it's actors but Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz are beginning to change that idea for me. I found these two imminently watchable and that is a good thing because this is a really intense movie. The story line interweaves three different timelines with incarnations of the same character. While it takes a bit of mental effort, it doesn't take too lo
