M-I-C, see you real soon...

...this has been the message on my gTalk for quite some time. CANNOT WAIT FOR FIRST REAL VACATION IN FOUR YEARS!

In other news, good Mother's Day. Nothing spectacular; getting Jon to help clean the house for our house/dog sitter was gift enough! But, homemade split pea soup dinner was nice. And, other than yelling at Harrison most of the weekend b/c he's going thru a phase, not altogether a bad couple of days.

Learning more and more of the solo form. This excites me as I thought maybe us B Blockers who hadn't moved up would be forgotten and perfecting our Push the Mountain for months to come. Last night in class, we practiced a new chi kung form, Lean Forward and Look for the Sea (yes?). Due to the fact I consistently pull only one of my butt cheeks (seriously, does this happen to anyone else?), I could only lean forward well on one leg. And, now, both butt cheeks hurt. Ah well, the price to pay for learning and practicing something new. Maybe that's not a form to try in line at Disney World...

Work is the same. Really keeping fingers crossed my two projects slow way down by the end of the week. Not looking likely, but dang it, I'm not bringing my laptop on vacation! Speaking of which, I was told I'm now in the first wave of the company Mac roll out to engineering. Can I just say: I'm SKERRED to death?! I have never used a Mac. I know nothing about Macs and the diffs from PCs. (Adam, I may need some tutorials!!!). But, a laptop that shuts off when it feels like it and does not latch and and has a sticky standby button and has several missing lines on the screen is one that needs recycling.

Oh, yes, thinking about starting a poetry blog. Just to have all my stuff somewhere other than paper. Not really for any other reason, I suppose. I don't actually know anyone who'd care to read it, but just a thought I have from time to time...

  1. Don't worry about it lady. I can be your tech support with Macs. They are no different then every other computer out there. You'll like it, I promise.

    I did now know you wrote poetry. If you add a page to your blog, I'd like to read some. You get to know a lot about a person through their poetry or writing samples.
