Wooohoo!! I feel great because my students who tested for first grade did really well. A few I was concerned about did better than I expected. :)

Think it goes without saying that you *always* have my *undivided attention!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!* x a gazillion billion willion etc ad infinitum.

In fact, I'd love to come to the states again and hang out with people coz (among other things, including my yearning to just be there with you, and seeing other peeps), I think I've become a much better photographer and really want to shove my lens in peoples faces! LOL!

We should Skype sometime soon (although you're working now, right?). I'm pretty much available whenever (apart from "prayer sessions" ;))

It's Artie's day of reckoning. A news assignment sends him to his family's old farmstead and a long-delayed meeting with his cousin Lulie. Good thing the dragonflies approve.
This sounds fun... what if I don't have a kindle?

as though a "like" outside of fb counts! :wave: hi, lorin!

To Shuram, ali, and Sarge (for when he gets back) - thanks for your thoughts and concerns.
I apparently don't know how to respond to sympathy, or something... felt awkward about making this post. :blush:
(wanted to say more, but.. that can wait.)

Orlion- yes, actually, I am in fact American and living in the U.S. ...so I, too, am geographically-challenged.
In fact, failed to realize that I didn't actually know which flag was SA's until like, yesterday. 8O

And deer- yay, that is exciting!

Aww, I like you guys too! :)

Amazon has free Kindle software for multiple devices. I don't have a Kindle either (BLASPHEMY!!! ;) ), but I've got a Kindle reader on my home computer and one on my iPhone, too. In fact, I should download my story to my phone....

I did have a moment of frustration though. I had specifically asked for time off on Wednesday for my dentist appointment. I intended to use sick time and told Kin about it when I asked for the time in the first place since the only time we can use that without penalty is for appointments made in advance or emergency hospital stays. I come in today and find that my schedule has been changed and they put me on Saturday so I could "get all my hours." I was like, hey, I have 72 hours of sick pay saved up and I get to use it for appointments and such so I wanted to have a four day work week and use my damn sick time when I can take it without penalty otherwise it's useless to me. I even said I was willing to take a different day as long as I got to use my sick time. They ended up giving me Saturday off after all. I hope they realize that I'll probably need two or three more visits over the next few weeks to get my teeth fixed and I sure as heck plan to use that extra time for those too. GRRR....
They did the exact same bloody thing to me. I was trying to take a 'vacation' day this week because they've been promising me for over a year that I could use my vacation time and it never works out. But I got the day approved, and they scheduled me to work late every other day to make up for it. The worst of it is that I know they meant well, and even said that it was so I could save my vacation time for if I get my hours cut. I just wanted a little break, but I couldn't say anything because saying that I wanted less hours would Look Really Bad. So the day I'd asked for ended up not working out at the last minute because they threw a ton of work onto what's usually a maintenance day for me, and they offered me a different day off in exchange, but at that point I said 'Forget it, just give me back my regular schedule.' And that sucks because this month has been hell and having an extra day off was the only thing I had to look forward to. :evil:

Oh, a change is coming, feel these doors now closing

Done!

It'll give me something to read on my way to Chicago next week.

And for the record, I don't have a Kindle either. I have the Kindle app on my Macbook Pro and on my iPad.

I'd love to do a conference, but I think it costs extra. If I'm wrong, I'd love to do it. But we do have a camera so we can do sound and video. And it seems to work just fine.
