And now to add to the laughter - and this is genuine

He forgot to put the steering wheel back on?!? What a character.

And I never noticed your mini-soaker before, compared to Michael's anyway, is it new?

I fnd it incredible that he could be without a steering wheel -- but then he's Irish - that says it all

My supersoaker came at the time of the others - it was a wonderful pressie from the originating genius

Take a bow oh Genius

Don,
get ready to duck cuz it looks like some nasty weather is moving in. It's black over Willoughby and I can hear the rumbles already. I hope it brings some rain, it's sooo dry here.

I'm shutting down the computer now... I'll be back when it's over.

Starts humming a little CCR:

I hear hurricanes a blowin'

I know the end is commin' soon

I fear rivers over flowing

I hear the voice of rage and ruin

The weather report on my computer is giving a severe thunderstorm warning with possible hail. yay, I love storms!

sweet: so i just got a short-term full time temp job today [hoorah for paying the bills]. which is great news that had me going jiggy. BUT better news is i just found a couple job listings for MATHEMATICIANS that i could try for. now, one requires several years of experience and may be out of my league, but the other is precisely the sort of thing i'm after. i'll try for both, of course, but it should be grand. anything not to have to sell out and become some sort of finance drone...

AND i got a drafting table today so i can actually like do work without killing myself. because it's hard to write on a level surface, it should be raised. unfortuantely, lacking a computer desk, it's working as a computer desk at the moment. BUT that should change once i get a real computer desk.

EEp looks like something has gone wrong with CF's graphics, half work half don't.

 

[Melethiel]

There's also something weird with the loading...every time I try to load a CF page, the window which indicates my wireless isn't on and I need to chose a line connection pops up, only obviously my wireless is working fine...this is only for CF pages.

 

[Michael G]

Ok, all the graphics are messed up? Where is the bug spray for us to apply to the site to get rid of all of the bugs?

 

[DonVA]

but...but... I just GOT a graphic! I miss "seeing" everyone! Khaleas: We got sprinkles and a little lightning. Did you get anything substantial over there? I hear there's some relief expected tomorrow: High in the upper 80s.

 

[Melethiel]

*switches to pda mode* Blessed relief from the wackiness of the graphics!

 

[MariaRegina]

Greg,

Maybe, just maybe, your awesome collection of the life of the Theotokos had something to do with this quiet time.

This is wonderful. No reports. Everything is so quiet. Whatever you did, Greg, keep doing it.

LOL

I'm getting some laundry done .... and some letters written ... and this is great.

 

[DonVA]

What's going on here? On my computer it looks like everyone's running around in their skivvies! Is Aria washing everyone's clothes?

 

[Melethiel]

Aargh, now even PDA mode is acting wacky. I guess that's a sign that it's time to go to bed.

 

[rusmeister]

OK yall,




I GOT A JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


It's not a "normal" job, but let me tell you about it


It's in my hometown. There was an ad in the newspaper on Wed, I called, sent a resume, and then interviewed today. At the end of the interview, the director up and offered me the job!!! I am the new general music teacher for a local charter school. A charter school is kinda a cross between a private school and a public school, because it is publically funded (no tuition fees) but it creates its own alternative curriculum. It IS a real teaching job, k-5, but they're a small school (120 kids) so I will only be working part time, as there are only 7 classes of kids to teach a week. I don't get any benefits, but the hourly wage I'll be making is close to what a FT salaried teacher would make per hour. It's an internationally, multiculturally focused school, with a mixture of kids whose first language is English and kids whose first language is Russian, Chinese, Korean, Turkish, Spanish, etc. So all kids learn English, as well as take classes in Chinese and Spanish. They try to teach a broad world-view and technology as other bases of curriculum.

I'm going to also be working part-time in my local starbucks, making poopy pay, but hopefully getting benefits after being there for 3 months.

So, I can live at home and have very limited expenses (which will go with my very limited pay!) but really get a first-year teaching experience under my belt and have an unusual classroom environment!

Yay!

Thanks to God, who provides at the most unusual times.

Good to hear, CF!I remember being that age and being treated as unqualified for anything. Even my Navy experience didn't help.Charter schools are better than public as such, in direct proportion to the greater freedom they have from the state.That's unfortunate about the benefits, but that could mean the school really does have a free hand if they're not getting a whole lot of state support. Hope that you can eventually get the good position with the bennies. In any event, it's doing what you want to do, so go for it and God bless!

Happy Early Birthday Michael!!!!It's your ultra Orthodox birthday.... 3-3!!!! YAY!!!!I'm going to Kinko's tomorrow (well, today if you're on the east coast). Don, we got a good soaking and some serious thunder and lightning. Fortunately it held up when we had a bunch of people over for dinner. Ahhh, them nutty Navy boys.
