I'm obsessed with my Cricut Gypsy. Several weeks ago I went to a scrapday with my friend Sue and encountered one of these amazing little items. Basically, I can scrap on the go. Amazing. I can sit in class (I mean, you know, not that, um, I never, nope, never, especially not during PR) and scrap! Then, when I get home, I plug it into my Cricut and CUT.

I cannot stand it.

I'm such a dork.

But a crafty one.JCMAhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813803770209303100.post-17138231896993152992010-06-29T16:26:00.000-07:002010-06-29T16:30:34.898-07:00Some of the better quotes of the dayFrom Mom:

I told her I got a RoadID with my information on it in case I get hit by (another) car and her phone number was listed on it after Phil. To which she replied, "Oh, so are you wearing a collar like the dogs with your phone number on it?"

"I'm pretty sure your grandmother is running a sleeper cell of the Third Reich where all they do is sleep."

A fun gchat:
me: he's not in my top ten [of people I like]
Brian: haha well me either
me: not in my top 100, either.
wait, i have 1400 facebook friends
i'd say he's def in my top 1000

Dear Rock & Jazz,

Seriously. This has not been a good 24 hours for us as a dog family. To start, I come home from work to find that Uncle George has stuck you in the wrong crates. I don't blame you for being unhappy. Especially Jazz. Since after I left, Rock you evidently pissed in your crate. And since you were then put in Jazz's crate, you didn't really care. Poor Jazzy was forced into the crate she hates - which had been pissed in by you, Rock. So, Jazz, you did what any normal 11 lb. dog would do. You ate the side of the god damn crate and escaped. Well, shit.

So, mommy went to Petco with Aunt Mariah and bought you a new crate. I almost broke a finger trying to set it up, but finally, I did it. As I went to put the crate liner in the new crate, you, little Rocky, ran over and peed on my hand. And the crate liner. That was fabulous. Then I realized you had not only peed on your crate liner from earlier that day, the clean one I just had put in, but you peed in Jazz's crate during the day. Well, shit.

Speaking of shit, while I was washing your crate linens and bleaching the trays to get rid of your piss smell, one of you little assholes shit all over my room. Thanks. Love you.

So, little dogs, let's try to make today a better day. Let's hold our piss and shit until we are outside. Let's not eat crates. Let's make life easier for mommy while daddy is away for business since I have to clean up ALL of your messes when you do this.

Love,
MommyJCMAhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813803770209303100.post-10788958901881375242010-06-15T06:59:00.001-07:002010-06-15T07:11:53.813-07:00YAY for Free Time!Well, its official. I passed all my classes and I'm a 2L. Thank jeebus.

Now my summer project is losing the weight that I put on during my first year. I started Weight Watchers the day after finals finished and it is working! I've also committed myself to running 10 5K's through the summer. The reason is tri-fold, tho, really. First, I want to quilt all the fun t-shirts you get from running in the races. Second, I'm going to do a shadow box with Phil & my racer numbers. Third, I need to lose the weight and if I pay for a race, I'm sure as hell going to run it.

My law school friend, Jenn, Phil, & I ran Kilometers for Karyn on Sunday, June 6 in West Orange, New Jersey. Since I had not run a step since about March, 2009, I was proud that I attempted to run a lot of the race AND finished under 40 minutes. Thank you so much to my friend and husband for cheering me on at the end. Both Jenn and Phil had great times and I was proud of both of them.

Last Saturday, June 12, Phil & I ran the Valerie Fund 5K at Verona Park. Phil cut a minute off of his time. I stayed about the same - but I would have done much better had I not pulled something in my right thigh. It felt like someone was stabbing me, but I jogged instead of walked, and finished at the same time, almost exactly as the Sunday before. Thank you to our friends Mark & Dianne, and their daughters, Aimee, Sara, and Sienna, for coming out and cheering us on. There is something about being bone tired and seeing your friends (and husband, who finished 10 minutes before you) cheering you on and into the finish line. If you have a chance, please come to any of our other races to do the same!

Our next 5K is June 21 in Millburn. I'm running with Phil & several friends from school. I have a goal of running four times a week, at least. Three days of training and one race (most weeks). This weekend we have no races, but maybe I can convince Phil to sign up for one, LOL.

Until then, I'm making baby samplers (I have a bunch to do!) and two wedding samplers :)JCMAhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813803770209303100.post-24925231674894294142010-06-08T07:11:00.000-07:002010-06-08T07:13:28.493-07:00Yeah, so I haven't posted since MarchSo, I sort of suck at balancing life, school, work, and a blog. But guess what?? I'm DONE FOR THE YEAR! I won't consider first year in the books until I get my last two grades (waiting and not so patiently) in, but all in all, I loved school and I did pretty okay.

So, now I'm back to crafting! The first thing I did was make my boss a lawyer cross-stitch for his birthday. I forgot to take a picture, so that's a big blog fail. BUT, now I'm working on a whole bunch of cross-stitch samplers for my friends new babies, new homes, and weddings! I also am almost done with a quilt top for our bedroom, and I bought the Cricut Design Studio to catch up on scrapbooking.

I love having time off!JCMAhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813803770209303100.post-16154383796654781482010-03-03T08:16:00.001-08:002010-03-03T08:18:23.954-08:00

Do you remember when Spring Break meant relaxing? I spent all four spring breaks in undergraduate in the Florida Keys with my grandparents in their guest suite with various friends/sorority sisters each time. I wouldn't trade those breaks for the world. We ate, drank, went snorkeling, relaxed, & petted manatees.

So, now I'm in law school and guess what! The only time I actually CAN go on vacation is Spring Break again. Welcome to back to the age of 21. Husband and I are going back to Riveria Maya - the Moon Palace. Last spring when we were at the Sun Palace in Cancun, we took a day trip to the Moon Palace and loved it. So, we're going back. I'm looking forward to relaxing and drinking lots of mimosas. Oh wait. I mean, I'm looking forward to drafting a Legal Writing Paper and studying for my Torts midterm while I'm there. Vacation fail.JCMAhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813803770209303100.post-73799413985253367652010-03-01T11:24:00.001-08:002010-03-01T11:24:45.882-08:00Dear Parents.

"You should have been a day student."

I will never forget when a day student had the balls to speak those words to me. Yes, this person actually looked at me and those words escaped his mouth. This was at 5:00 p.m. I had left my job early to come and participate in a SBA function - A Quiz Bowl - where all the first year sections competed against each other. My class had voted me in to represent the evening students. The question asked had been taught to the day sections, but not the evening sections, so we had no idea (and note - I had made sure to advise the question makers in ADVANCE that it would be unfair to ask certain questions, but alas). In response to me telling the host that the evening section had not progressed that far in Civil Procedure, he said those horrible words to me. You should have a been a day student.

Normally at 5:00 p.m., this jacktard is leaving the law school, getting ready to finish up his day. Going to whatever dwelling he lives in, able to watch tv, eat dinner, go to bed before 2:00 a.m. Me? I had been up for about 11 hours at this point, worked for eight, and still had a good five hours left before I'd take my weary ass home. I had only read 30/40 pages for my first class that night and hoped I could get those last ten pages down before class, or I'd start praying I didn't get called on. I hadn't seen my husband during daylight hours in three days. And he said this to me.

Listen. While, yes, ideally, only going to school would be a great situation, I happen to prefer mine. I have a job that I love, a home that I love, a car that I love, and enjoy going out to nice dinners and going on trips. My job provides me with practical experience that is going to put me in a much better situation than if I had been just gone to school for three straight years. Do you know what the difference is between me and you, day student? THREE CREDITS. THREE HOURS of class time a week. I have 12 credits - you have 15. I also work forty hours a week and still volunteer, find time to participate in class activities, and have a husband and a dog and fun.

Why, yes, maybe it might be the traditional way to go to law school, I would not trade a single student in my section (well, okay, maybe a few), a single professor I have (ok, again, maybe one of them), or a single experience to be a day student.

So, no, buddy, you should have been an evening student!JCMAhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813803770209303100.post-58773132301815276012010-03-01T10:51:00.000-08:002010-03-01T10:52:12.326-08:00This does not bode well for me.Lawyer sells law degree on CraigsList.

Let's talk about how you consistently drive me through the ghetto. I'm talking the worst parts of the worst cities in NJ ever. Yesterday was no exception. I was going to pick up a client's records for work from a really nice, ritzy, neighborhood. No problem. How did you take me? Through the worst section of Newark in the world. Dear lord. So, as I'm driving, this man knocks on my passenger side windows, frantically. I rolled it down enough to hear him say, "Don't you hear all the people honking at you? You are dragging your oil pan! Your car is smoking and sparks are everywhere! You are going to set your car on fire! Oh my god, pull over! I will help you!"

Stop. Jessica is not street smart. Jessica, however, realizing that her car is a lot smarter than she is, would have at least set off a billion buzzers by now and I would think I could hear or feel my car dragging something along side the Garden State Parkway, no?

However, my low air light came on earlier that day, so I was thinking, "OH MY GOD, the car is going to catch on fire."

But, I decided to pull into a gas station about a half block up. I'm, of course, wearing a suit skirt. I try to peer under the car to see if anything was dragging or if there is a trail of oil down S. Orange Avenue. I see neither. So I call my husband and explain the situation to him. Immediately he asks if there are lights blinking on the car. I told him no.

I then asked the proprietor of the gas station if he could help me. He looked under the car and also saw nothing. He had me drive around the gas station a few times and also saw nothing. He then looked at me and said, "They try to rob you and steal car. Not a good place. Get out. Roll up your windows, lock your doors and get away."

Hubs met me on the side of the parkway and he checked out the car. Nothing was wrong with it. Fabulous.

That goes in my ghetto story file for the week.JCMAhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813803770209303100.post-66680328126170163512009-09-21T05:46:00.000-07:002009-09-21T05:53:54.481-07:00All nighter

Okay, it wasn't all night, but I'm old and 3:00 a.m. is late for me. Our first draft of our very first legal writing assignment was due this morning at 9:00 a.m. I started it last week and have been working on it. I just didn't realize how long it was going to take me to finish it up and the panic attack that would ensue at some point (thank you Bridgette for talking me off the ledge at midnight, LOL). I spent most of my weekend working on outlines and typing up notes, reviewing what we did in the first four weeks, and allotted a few hours for the assignment. Bad move.

Anyone, it's safe to say that I won't be putting anything off until last minute again. I did get to listen to lots of new music as I worked on it. I missed all of NFL football today. That sucked. And it's safe to say that today, I will be living on this:

So is Monday. Sigh.JCMAhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813803770209303100.post-76747662112824323152009-09-19T10:52:00.000-07:002009-09-19T10:58:26.841-07:00First Game!

The First Carolina Game of 2009 at our house coincided with our first party with law school friends. As I remarked to my husband in the liquor store last night, law school has really improved my alcohol tolerance. I'm not joking - there is alcohol at every turn. Of course a house full of law school students and my BILs - we put down a few cases of beer. We didn't get to sleep until almost 4 and I had to be at SBA at 9:30 am. I made it!

I also got my school issued flu shot on Thursday. I figured if I'm going to be in close proximity to 70 other students, someone is bound to give someone else the flu and there is no way I can miss a week of work and school to be sick. Plus, I'm a BIG FAT BABY and cannot handle being sick. My arm still hurts from the shot. See? Big Baby.

Okay, need to knock out a Legal Writing Paper before Gametime! Fun times!JCMAhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813803770209303100.post-27994414342419009402009-09-15T05:40:00.000-07:002009-09-15T05:44:28.884-07:00Three weeks under the beltThree weeks under my belt. I was elected to SBA and have now tried out for the ADR team (Alternative Dispute Resolution). One of my professors made me cry. I didn't read for a class and got called on (and did okay!).

My body has pretty much adapted to the schedule - the first two weeks were rough. I was mentally and physically exhausted. Now I'm just trying to figure out how to get all of my work done. I slept for sixteen straight hours yesterday. SIXTEEN. Do you think I might have needed it? I was up for six more hours and went back to sleep.

Tonight - Civil Procedure and Legal Writing. I have to finish a draft of my first assignment by Friday. I can do it, I think.JCMAhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813803770209303100.post-47568121625315855792009-09-04T06:40:00.001-07:002009-09-04T07:37:54.124-07:00The Gamecocks Won!Another week of law school is over. If you are keeping track, this would be the second week. I will say I'm getting into a better routine and my body and mind are adjusting to the 14 hour days. I do miss my naps, though. Napping is a big deal in my family, both maternally and paternally. Big Al takes a nap everyday when he comes home from work and my mom is famous for yelling at me for interrupting her nap time when I call her on weekends.

Last night the Gamecocks played their first day and it happened to coincide with my Civil Procedure Class. That was sad. I like Civil Procedure, but I love my Gamecocks. Luckily, there was only about a 35 minute overlap and I was able to keep track of the score on ESPN360.

I think, however, my classmates underestimated my love of the Gamecocks. I showed up at school in a jersey and with a "Beat NC State" sticker on. I hope I didn't scare them with the whole "Go Gamecocks" thing.

Oh well. That's just Jess. Ha.

Up next: Georgia on September 12! Party at my house :)JCMAhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813803770209303100.post-28746706872015609792009-09-03T06:20:00.000-07:002009-09-03T06:28:01.284-07:00Another New Camera!

I know that I just blogged about getting a new camera that kicks butt. Well, speaking of butt, I dropped my Canon Elph in the toilet at a bar on Saturday night, so I had to get a new one. Awesome. Note, this is not the expensive one listed below, this was out point and shoot that we got two years ago right after we got engaged. It was an amazing camera and I loved it. So, upon waking up on Sunday and realized the episode in the Bar B bathroom was not a dream, I drove to Best Buy and bought the above camera. It is 12 megapixels. I don't even know what that means, but evidently, that means awesome in camera language. Oh, and I got it in bright red. Not by choice, but I think it will be rocking.

Thank goodness our photos of the debaucherous evening (which included Java Monsters, Mac and Cheese, the East Village, a phone booth, dead raccoons, CRIF dogs, leaving my BIL in Manhattan, and an English girl telling people in the park not to sell drugs), were saved. I do need to upload those, but that would require time and the actual act of sitting in front of a computer that's not related to work or school.

This weekend. I promise. I also promise Jen I'll post snake and champagne photos.JCMAhttp://email@example.com

Walked With The Dead - Poem by Dhiraj Das
Drenched With The Darkness, A Silent Uncanny Night,
Crawling Through The Way Of Mine, Too Fast To Wade;
Some Shadows, Did Seem, Floating Here And There,
Alone In The Dark, With The Host Of The Dead.
Beneath The Wide And Starry And Bared Sky, Nearby,
Who Is There? Whispering; "No Fear, Be Brave, Be Brave!
Watch Out O' Dear, The Lost Traveller Of Light—
You Are On My Chest, Upon A Long Untouched Grave."
Confounded, Still For A While, Scared By The Grousing Flaccid Din,
And A Long Howl; Cracked The Thick Creepy Clandestine Wave;
Chilled Sensation; Same Words Again Of That Cloaked Whisperer,
"Don't Panic, O' Dear, Accept The Fate, Be Brave, Be Brave! "
Weary Consciousness, As The Thin Air Steering Through Hair,
Again—"O' Dear Do Me A Favour To Quench My Last Known Desire;
Help Me To Find Out My Man And My Son; I'm Dying To Meet,
Last I Have Seen Them With Me, Trapped In A Deadly Hellish Fire."
Those Words Started Echoing Through My Heart And My Soul,
Mighty Unconsciousness Suddenly Took Me To Her Lap;
A Son, A Couple, I Saw In The Fire, Scared By The Shadow Of Death;
I Stretched My Hand, Said Come, But Failed To Manage The Gap.
Again The Darkness And The Mist, As Slowly Getting Fade And Pale,
The Misty Shroud First Whiten, Then Ashen, Then Become Dark;
Suddenly, I Found Myself In The Gush, Insurgent, Vigorous,
As Some Intangible Liveliness Steering Me For A Steady Embark.
A dim mystic glow on eyes, knocked me, I found myself in the wood,
Sycamores, Lithe Vines Glowing Dim, No Darkness No Howl No Grave;
Only Some Words Still Being Echoed Through My Heart And My Soul,
As The Ode Of Eternity, "Don't Panic O' Dear, Be Brave Be Brave! "
Bewildered By The Happening, I Witnessed; A Dream Or A Fact?
As The Journey I Made, Through An Unknown History Of The Past;
But Happy For The Lesson From That Unknown Apparition I Meet,
The Life Must Meet The Death, But Neither The Desire Nor The Lust.
Still, When I Travel Through The Darkness In My Way Of Life Towards,
When, alone in the science, I feel scared by some strange repulsive wave,
I can hear the murmur of that unknown whisperer of the long lost past,
"Don't Panic O' Dear, I Am With You Here. Be Brave, Be Brave! "

She either does 11.30-1.30 or 12.30-2.30pm.The latest I let her sleep till is 3pm.Then we put her down at night around 7.30/45pm and she wriggles and sings for an hour or so,she is perfectly happy..I tried putting her down later but she still took an hour to go off so bedtime was even later..It's like an unwinding process for her.But if she doesn't nap all day which on occasion she refuses it,she is out like a light at 6.45pm and sleeps 12 hours.If she goes to sleep at 9pm she tends to wake up after 10 hours as had that other two hours during the day I guess?
I don't think she could handle dropping the nap every day,she has gone without two days in a row before then slept 2.5/nearly 3 hours the next day to catch up.
So I guess I'm wondering if it would make sense to cut short her daytime nap to see if she goes to sleep a bit earlier in the evening? Maybe limit it to an hour and wake her up? I hate waking her,it never seems right.But if I keep on how we are going is going to bed at 9pm good for her? She was yawning when I dropped her to preschool.Would she be more refreshed if she slept earlier.Any advice welcome or people in a similar situation..

I was driving down HWY30 yesterday for a meeting in town when I heard a loud whacking sound under the car. Minutes later, I pulled over to the side of the road. I had a very flat, left right tire. Sigh. I called and canceled my 1:30 meeting and started dialing for a service to help change the tire. (I would change myself, but recent surgery prevents this). While I was dialing I looked up to see a man outside the window. Normally this would not be a good sign…
"It looks like you could use some help with that flat tire."
"I could. Can you help?"
"Sure can. We're pretty slow today. Let me get a couple of the guys to help you out."
"That would be great."
"No problem. Glad to help."
15-minutes later I was back on the road, a bit wetter. Yes, it started pouring down rain while they changed the tire. I headed to Les Schwab for a new tire while thinking chivalry really isn't dead, just hidden in little out of the way places. Unfortunatly, my day really was shot. I spent 2 1/2 hours waiting for the car. I did have a lovely, late afternoon lunch at Justa Pasta on NW 19th (great place!) and read a book. It ended up being a nice, quiet afternoon. Something that I evidently needed via divine intervention sans a flat tire.
I'm headed back today with a six-pack as a 'thanks'. It's the least I can do.
Not much knitting on the needles this week. I should have plenty tomorrow and Saturday. I'll be walking in the Portland to Coast walk with a fabulous group of PDX Knitters. Our team name? "Willwalkforwool". Don't ya just love it!

Another Shabbos.
More Memories to store away.
The Balancing act that is life is just too much to handle at times.
I'm feeling it.
At the moment - the board is already in play, pieces in motion - but they follow a course of routine and unswerving pattern. Someday soon something will come along and disrupt the balance. At least, I hope it is someday soon.
I cry out for change and yet fear it.
Am I ready?
Will I ever be?

Addendum: I hesitated to post this artist's work, but I decided to because the against all odds and inventive solution nature of the story is so uplifting. But the problem I have with this sort of thing is that the overcoming a disability aspect will often take the focus away from of the art. Which I am thinking may be the case here. It's a slippery slope to where, in the market place, one sees the value of the art being decided by the severity of the disability and we end up with dealers saying things like, "I'll trade you a cerebral palsy artist for a two down syndromes and an autism." That would be a travesty.

The soul of an artist can't help but shine through, burst forth from behind the wall of whatever tries to hinder it or quell it.
That's what this says to me. As for dealers, ugh. But we all have to get by I guess. Commercialism and art are such strange bedfellows.

Thank you Indie. Your words carry a ray of light into this otherwise dreary day. I think you are exactly correct in naming the prominent aspect of his work the light of the soul.
I have to say here that all of the art dealers that I have met and dealt with are good people and truly value and love the art first and foremost. I think that the large majority are that way. From what I hear though, when one's art career becomes more successful, one starts to attract the sharks.

Hi! I've peeked here before but I'm really moved to comment on this guy's work. The rendering would be lovely enough if done in a predictable medium, that it's done with a typewriter just tickles my literary side and my appreciation for the non-conventional (as does your work, Reuben).

K'bel, Thank you for your feedback on this one. I'd like to explore the relationship of the art to the context of its source some more. I think intelligent discourse from those who are immersed in the field is important in countering the saturation of interpretation by marketers of trendy artforms.
Thanks Kato, I like what you are saying, hope to hear from you some more.

Marmie, that's really fascinating...I see so much of myself reflected in there. I also have bursts of enthusiasm which just make people smile and laugh, but I can't help it - it's just so effervescent -
Yep. But often it comes at a price:Because of his capacity, when orientated more towards men than things, to make an intuitive diagnosis of their abilities and range of usefulness, he can also 'make' men. His capacity to inspire his fellow-men with courage, or to kindle enthusiasm for something new, is unrivalled, although he may have forsworn it by the morrow. The more powerful and vivid his intuition, the more is his subject fused and blended with the divined possibility. He animates it; he presents it in plastic shape and with convincing fire; he almost embodies it. It is not a mere histrionic display, but a fate.
a. I lose myself in it. At the end of the day, I have no life. Argh.
b. I don't have structure.
c. I lose myself in activism to the point that I lose focus and question why I even started.
Typical evaluation:
Good: varied methods, always interesting, always different, enthusiastic, interested in the students, accommodates individual preferences, never boring, motivates students
Bad: lack of structure, sometimes too interested in what the students want (e.g. not strict enough, not simply telling people what to do).
Hmm. My advisor told me "You have structure, but it's not direct or linear. You have to sketch your structure so that people know where you're going."
Or here's another comment, "At first, when you started, I wondered, 'Will this thing have a structure?' But as you went on, I saw how everything fit together, and I really liked it."

Especially since some people have taken me so seriously because I can come across so strongly.
I guess that's what they mean about "abandoning" something "cold-bloodedly." It's less cold-blooded, and just that I saw the error in my thinking, or thought about the situation from a different angle, and realized a new way of thinking is in order.
That can get embarrassing. However, when I keep being passionate about something over a long period of time, over and over again, over the course of weeks months and years, that's when to take me seriously. If you keep hearing or reading it.

It does cause some people to think you're not credible (you, the general you, Ne doms, maybe ENFPs) when these things occur. Yet it is always totally sincere.
This hearkens to a thread I posted in last night where an ISxJ said they don't trust ENFPs to know who they really like or are friends with. Well...I genuinely like all the people I'm friends with. But you know if I like you *particularly* because I give you *moar* attention, or keep coming back to you *repeatedly over time.*
It's pretty much the same with my Fi morals and emphatic ideas. You can be sure that I mean what I say at any given time (unless I'm in some situation where I feel that lying is necessary for survival reasons, which is pretty damn rare) ...but if you want to know what I'm really made of, note what I keep coming back to repeatedly and consistently. Because the Fi is definitely there, it totally is. It's just buried sometimes under all that Ne excitement.
I lack structure, too, BTW. I totally relate with you on that.
It's good to find people who understand!!!

It starts off with her coming near me and looking at me expectantly with big, soft brown eyes. I put my hand down to pet her, and she hops away a few feet... turns... looks at me again. I get up, get closer, and away she leaps! hopping another few feet away. She eyes me again, all alertness, ears pricked up, one paw half off the floor.
"Ah, you want to be chased!" I think to myself.
So I comply, and shuffle closer to her, watch her hop away.... I shuffle closer.... she hops... This continues for a few minutes.
I see her little bunny brain whirring. "I'm being chased! This is so much fun!" (hop hop HOP!)
And then it changes....to.....
"OMG IM BEING CHASED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" *running, thumping hind leg, ears flattened, eyes bulging out, peeking out from behind one of my chairs, her little nose going a mile a minute*
Eventually she will calm down and remember that it is me, the one who pets her and brings her treats, and she will creep out to be snuggled.
In conclusion:
1st RULE: You do not talk about FIGHT CLUB.
2nd RULE: You DO NOT talk about FIGHT CLUB.

From The Pulpit
Published 7:00 pm, Wednesday, April 20, 2005
After King David saw himself in the mirror of Nathan's parable, a heavy load was lifted and the long awaited and much needed confession flowed freely from the lips of the king. He admitted, "I have sinned against the Lord" (2 Samuel 12:1-19).
By Dr. Clarence Talley
With that confession a sigh of relief also came. For almost a year now David had wrestled with and was tormented over his actions. Yet, he had not found the courage to voluntarily come before the Lord and do what he knew was required: repent.
Nonetheless, the guilt of what he had done was always with him. Like a stain that would not be washed away, his sin was ever before him.
Listen to David as he recalled that period in his life. "There was a time when I wouldn't admit what a sinner I was.
But my dishonesty made me miserable and filled my days with frustration. All day and all night your hand was heavy on me My strength evaporated like water on a sunny day until I finally admitted all my sins to you and stopped trying to hide them" (Psalm 32:1-4 LB).
Many times we sin against God and then carry on as though nothing ever happened. We glibly say, "Wasn't anything to that." "Didn't mean anything." "Everything's alright." "It's done now." "Forget." Today, we tend to brush-off sin like lint on a lapel. We casually excuse ourselves as though we have the final say about our sinful act(s).
We may not have sinned to the degree in which king David did, yet there are still consequences for what we do that is evil in God's sight. Those consequences are built into sin.
According to Romans 6:23, there are wages attached to sin; lying, stealing, killing, backbiting, dishonor, adultery, fornication, and so on all carry a high price. Divine justice requires it.
However, since we come under the blood of Jesus Christ we are safe for the price of our sin has been paid. And as a result, with the confession of sin, we can be restored to our former relationship with God.
As long as David refused to confess, his relationship with God was in jeopardy. Sin separates us from God. But once sin is confessed, the relationship is restored (1 John 1:9). And mercy is extended (Proverbs 28:13).
After David confessed, he was forgiven, the relationship restored, and the penalty of death was rescinded. Nathan replied, "The Lord has taken away your sin. You are not going to die" (2 Samuel 12:13b). Still, the consequence of what the king had done would affect his household, his nation, his enemies, and in addition, the son born to King David and Bathsheba would also die.
Nathan foretold that "The sword will never depart from your house, because you despised me and took the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your own" (2 Samuel 12:10).
The devastating short- and long-term effects of sin on our lives and the lives of others is experienced every time we decide to travel the broad road that leads to destruction rather than the narrow road that leads to life. The sword that fell upon David's house falls upon us all when sin is committed. It may not be as heavy handed but there are consequences nevertheless.
We are not lacking in examples. Many of us have witnessed godly kids who have made bad decisions and have had to suffer the consequences. Many more examples assail us such as church leaders, school teachers, godly husbands and wives, politicians and etc. who also made bad decisions and have had to reap a bitter harvest. They, along with family members, associates, friends, and other innocent by-standers have had to suffer the consequences of sin.
Remember, the consequences of our sins do not slip upon us.
We are warned through Scripture about the consequences of our decisions and the harvest we will reap if the seeds of sin are planted (Deuteronomy 30:15-19).
Therefore, "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man [woman, boy or girl] soweth, that shall he also reap" (Galatians 6:7).
To be continued.

Photo of South Shields murder suspect to be displayed on screens and driven round Spain
A murder suspect from South Shields is on a list of Britain's 18 most wanted fugitives whose faces are being broadcast at expat hotspots in Spain.
Allan Foster is wanted in connection with the murder of David "Noddy" Rice in May 2006.
The 42-year-old was shot 9 times as he sat in his car in Marsden Bay Car Park in South Shields.
A 13ft high digital screen, attached to the back of a van, is touring popular ex-pat spots, including Benidorm, Malaga and Puerto Banus. It will be parked outside supermarkets, bars and clubs.
The National Crime Agency hope that by putting the photos in plain sight, it will help to flush out the fugitives.
It's the latest push by the charity Crimestoppers and the National Crime Agency to capture the remaining 18 fugitives wanted as part of Operation Captura. Sixty-eight of 86 have already been found.
Operation Captura, an initiative between Crimestoppers, the NCA and Spanish authorities, is now in its ninth year.
Police hunt continues for one of UK's most wanted

Most wanted County Durham man may have been sighted in Lancashire
A County Durham man named as one of the country's most wanted, may have been sighted in Lancashire.
Brian Thexton, 37, is wanted by the National Crime Agency. He is accused of being involved in robberies and is awaiting trial for conspiracy to supply cocaine.
He was thought to have been in Spain. But a man believed to be Thexton was stopped by police in Lancaster on Friday, November 15.
Officers say the man escaped by speeding off. The public are being warned not to approach him.
Northumberland man named in list of most wanted
Keith Turner, 60, from Northumberland, was released on licence in 1993 after serving 20 years in jail for the manslaughter of his mother and sister at their home in Cramlington.
He got a job working for a charity in Slough in 1998, but two years later was arrested on suspicion of issuing himself four cheques worth a total of £10,000. He failed to appear in court to face charges.
Durham man named in list of most wanted
Brian Thexton, 37, from Durham, is accused of being involved in robberies where a gang would tie up homeowners and force them to give up alarm codes and safe combinations.
In one the gang impersonated police officers to dupe the victims into opening the door, before brandishing a pick axe handle and a baseball bat.
He is also awaiting trial for conspiracy to supply cocaine, over claims that he was the middleman in the sale of half a kilo of the drug, and had admitted conspiring to steal cars and machinery.
UK fugitives warned Spain 'is not a safe haven'
Criminals thinking of fleeing to Spain's Costa Del Crime are being warned that Spain is "not a safe haven." The warning comes as British and Spanish authorities issue a joint list of the UK's most wanted criminals thought to be on the run in Spain. Hank Cole from the NCA said:

It's a completely different life than Matilda's used to, and it takes some getting used to, but she learns to like the new world she's been thrown into.
I really like Cushman's historical stories- she'll focus on the story of a young person, and layer in a lot of other interesting history around them. This book gives you an interesting overview of medieval medicine, as well as the contrast between the church and lay people. It's a charming story – I read it in one night.

But usually, its hard to wear, looks flat. So one fine day, i wanted to be spontaneous, took a pair of scissors and snipped off 4 inches!
Not bad at all, who knew i had skill in cutting my own hair? Smiling and patting myself on the back for a job well done
After. Use my elbows are benchmarks
Before. Seductive?
After, quirky n fun-lovin'?
Before testing my skills
After finding out that i rock with a pair of scissors! And also after changing my top.

Earlier this week, i was worried cuz it was stated that my final paper is unconfirmed. Now that it says enrolled, i'm happy =) One to go!

SANTA ANA, CA - Trevor Mark Coffman, faces trial tomorrow for causing a high-speed freeway crash, killing two elderly passengers and severely injuring their elderly driver. Coffman, 38, Laguna Niguel, is charged with two felony counts of vehicular manslaughter by unlawful act without gross negligence while intoxicated with sentencing enhancements for causing great bodily injury to an elder. If convicted, Coffman faces a maximum sentence of 14 years in state prison. Coffman is out of custody on $100,000 bail. Opening statements are expected to begin tomorrow, Thursday, April 1, 2010, at 9:00 a.m.
On March 15, 2007, 76-year-old Sally Lee Howd and her 82-year-old husband Frank Howd were returning home with 72-year-old Catherine Malloy, a visiting friend whom they picked up from Los Angeles International Airport. They were driving southbound in the carpool lane on Interstate 5 and collided with a black Toyota Celica, which was disabled with no emergency signal lights on the freeway south of El Toro Road.
In the evening of March 15, 2007, Coffman is accused of consuming several alcoholic drinks following a recreational softball game. At approximately 11:20 p.m., the defendant is accused of driving southbound on Interstate 5 while intoxicated in his pick-up truck with a friend in the passenger seat. Coffman is accused of failing to stop due to his intoxication and crashing into the victims' Volvo, which was disabled as a result of the earlier collision. Witnesses called 9-1-1.
Coffman is accused of killing passengers Malloy and Frank Howd and severely injuring driver Sally Howd. Malloy was pronounced dead at the scene. The two other victims were transported to the hospital to be treated for their injuries. Frank Howd suffered internal injuries and a broken pelvis and died the next day from multiple traumatic injuries that were caused by the crash. Sally Howd sustained a skull fracture, broken ribs, and cuts to her face.
When contacted by police at the scene, Coffman is accused of displaying objective signs of intoxication including impaired balance and coordination, watery eyes, and an odor of alcohol on his breath. The defendant is accused of having a blood alcohol content of .10 percent and testing positive for marijuana. Coffman was arrested after being transported to the hospital and treated for a broken collar bone and scratches.
Deputy District Attorney Jason Baez of the Homicide Unit is prosecuting this case.

Marquis family page
This surname is more common in Guernsey than in Jersey
Page still under development If you can help with information about this family, please contact email@example.com, using Jerripedia as the subject of your email. We are particularly interested in information which will help create further family trees, family histories and photographs
A blue link anywhere in the text will lead you to another page with more information on this family
Origin of Surname
This was a rank of nobility between Duke and Count in 16th century France, and in the north of the country the name may have been given to someone in service of a Marquis. However, in the west of France it is thought that the name is more likely to have originated from the forename mare, or to have been a variant of marchis. This is an archaic French word for 'market' and is found in Norman-French as marchi.
Early records
The name is much more prevalent in Guernsey than Jersey, where only three baptisms are listed - in 1827, 1912 and 1913. It is believed that all Jersey families originated in the sister island, and were often only temporary emigrants to Jersey.

Okay... apparently I have to move. Somehow I did something to make Izzy angry at fursuit bowling? I don't know what the fuck... but he is being childish as hell. He is kicking me out of the house because of it.
What the fuck ever. I'm rather tired of this anyways. Until he makes the mental shift and grows up, things would stay the same. I was hoping on the chance that he indeed would change soon... but I guess it wasn't soon enough. I'm tired of always being worried about him getting angry and doing exactly this... for whatever reason. Well, hah, now I don't have to worry about it!
After a good bit of searching... I've decided that my only real option is to stay with my mom. I just called her tonight, and made the arrangements, so I am going to be going down there to live... for who knows how long. It could be a few weeks, or a few months... I can't say. I think it's going to be rather interesting though. Things seem to be working out rather well, in spite of everything.
Lol, would this qualify as one of those "I need a drink" moments? I've certainly taken a fancy to simply one shot of their cherry brandy in a day. At least when I do drink, it's never to get drunk. I hope that never changes.
When I move to my mother's, I don't know if and how much internet access I am going to have, though I will do what I can to stay online as much as I can. I know my T-Mobile phone doesn't work down there, so I wouldn't have a way to connect via phone, text, or mobile IM. I am going to miss talking to everyone up here!! At least this is not permanent though. When I can I am going to come back to live up here, perhaps with another furry friend, or perhaps with someone I find on Craig's List. Either way... I must move back to Kennesaw. I've got too much up here that I don't want to leave behind for long.
*Sigh* I am actually content right now. I'm physically, emotionally, and mentally drained as all hell, but I'm content with that thigs are working out alright.
I hope I will be able to post again soon, I really do. I'm afraid to leave my friends like this.

Fursuit bowling just by itself sounds like enough to make anyone angry.
Hmm? What do you mean?
Well, it seems to me like it would be hard.

A Message from HORN USA, Inc.
As Seen In Production Machining
Two New Twists on Thread Whirling
Thread whirling as a metalworking process dates to the 1940s. Recently, developments in production speeds, based on this increasingly popular process, are impacting thread manufacturers.
Paul Horn Facility Showcases its Expertise
Paul Horn GmbH's facility in Tübingen, Germany, is impressive not only because of its cleanliness, but the size of the campus and the company's fast growth from year to year.
Training Through German Eyes: Not What You Expect
HORN pays strict attention to assure the people that the company understands the importance of, and are capable of, working with others. Its focus is on using the strengths of each person for the benefit of the whole.
Technology or People?
In your shop, do your people operate your machines? What impressed me the most was the implicit, built-in assumptions at HORN that it was the people leading the machine tools, rather than the machine tools leading the people.
Paul Horn Keeps Moving Forward
Since I visited Horn in Germany two years ago, it has doubled its production floor with an investment of 70 million Euros.
New Substrate Increases Tool Life Turning Tough Materials of Small Diameters
Horn USA's Supermini cutting tool's new substrate, coating and edge preparation is said to provide high-performance results in small diameters.
PMPA Chapter Meeting Covers Threading
The PMPA Indiana/Southern Ohio Chapter meeting on November 15 covered "All Things Threading," with presentations from Horn USA and LMT Tools (Fette), and included live threading demonstrations on the Technical Equipment's showroom floor.
Take This Tool for a Spin
Turbo whirling is a newly developed process from Horn USA that optimizes machining during thread whirling, boosting both productivity and cost-effectiveness.
A Grand Event in Grand Rapids
The 2016 PMPA National Technical Conference provided three days of powerful sessions to hundreds of attendees eager to support their industry and improve their own business acumen.
Cutting into the Workforce Shortage
On Manufacturing Day, which was October 2 this year, students from Williamson County, Tennessee, toured multiple manufacturing facilities, one being Horn USA, to obtain a firsthand look at local career opportunities.
Horn Opens Subsidiary in Mexico in 2016
Developments in the southern United States and a positive work ethic among the population are what has made Mexico so strategically important to Horn's position on the global market.
The Transition to No-Lead Brass
Adjustments to feeds and speeds, coolant, tooling and scrap management all play a significant role in allowing a productive switch to unleaded brass.
Supermini Type 105 Carbide Inserts for Hard Machining
The Supermini type 105 tool system from Horn performs demanding tasks involving bore diameters between 0.2 mm (0.008") and 6 mm (0.236"), with more than 1,000 versions of the carbide insert that fit one toolholder.
6 Lessons I Learned about our Machining Business
Last month, I was privileged to attend Horn Technology Days. Here are the lessons I learned.
34T Triple-Edged Grooving Insert for Grooving, Side Turning and Parting-Off
The 34T triple-edged grooving insert from Horn is an alternative to the existing 312 grooving insert and features additional advantages.
Training Your Apprentices: A Project to Prove their 'Mettle'
At the recent Horn Technology Days, I spent some time hanging out with the apprentices.
The Real Truth About the Skilled Workforce Issue
"The workforce and finding skilled people are our shop's biggest problems." I hear this line from almost every shop I visit.
Horn on Track to Double Capacity in Germany in 2016
Horn's headquarters in Tübingen, Germany, is doubling its capacity by adding 12,000 m² of new production space.
Learning by Seeing
German cutting tool maker Horn hosted the fifth edition of its biennial Technology Days event.
Finding the Right Insert Eliminates Need for Second Machining Center
Read about this shop that could have added a second machine and fixtures to perform an additional process, but instead, decided to work with the Mori Seiki NH 4000 horizontal machining center that it already had in-house. The company elected to use two 90-degree milling heads to machine the flats that are made of 4140 steel.

Hi Everyone!
I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season and their New Year is off to a good start. Things are starting to get back to normal in our house, although we haven't tackled taking down the decorations yet.
Practical Scrappers has started the New Year with a bang. This week their challenge it working with buttons. I love buttons but often forget to use them on my projects so this was a challenge I was looking forward to.
This week I created a card using my new favourite stamp set from Close To My Heart. This stamp set is called Grown with Love and is perfect for scrappers and card makers alike.
I liked the stamp set and coordinating paper so much that I purchased some chipboard buttons to match. To help stretch my button stash I used some clear buttons and created my own patterned buttons using patterned paper, glossy accents, and stamped images.
I used glossy accents to adhere my clear buttons to patterned paper. Once the glossy accents dried I cut around my button and sanded the edges to finish them off. In less than 5 minutes I had a handful of coordinating buttons to add to my project.
Paper- brown bazzill cardstock from my stash, cream card base from my stash, Twitterpated patterned paper from Close To My Heart
Ink- Close To My Heart Chocolate ink, gingerbread versamagic chalk ink
Stamps- Grown with Love from Close To My Heart
Accessories- Creative Memories Circle Cutter, Creative Memories Blue Blade, Close To My Heart Dimensional Elements in Organic, Close To My Heart Clear Acrylic buttons, Glossy Accents, Close To My Heart Waxy Flax in Colonial White

We found the lounges and dining room downstairs superbly set out and we used them daily after we returned from touring the lake district.
The spa facilities etc we did not use, sadly due to an injury and a long activity list, however they looked superb.We shall return to sample them at another date in the future.
Best breakfast we have ever come across English or continental, whatever you wanted was there with bells on.
If you would like a pause, between the starter and the main course, I would suggest you say so when ordering your meal from the menu.Our main arrived virtually after we had finished our starter. A small point, I do like a pause in between courses..
When next in Ambleside, it will be my port of call. less

We'd booked a double room with a balcony and the room was called Loughrigg. It was very nice . The balcony overlooked the street but we could see the scenery behind . The weather was beautiful which made everything look even nicer. The bathroom was quite small with a shower screen and fixed shower head , it was ok though. The bed was comfortable , hairdryer and tea tray in the draws . Everything was clean and well kept.
Since it's in the village centre everything is handy . The pool is quite big but we felt it was too cool for us to get in . We went outside to the hot tub . It was very nice sitting outside in the bubbles . Pool towels are provided .We decided not to eat in the hotel but came back for a drink in the pleasant bar area . Breakfast wasn't included so we went out for that but wish we'd tried it in the hotel . We had a great stay and would definitely recommend it . less

We had booked a classic double room, so did not expect bells and whistles. Although fairly small with a limited outlook, the room itself was very well appointed with everything you would expect from a quality establishment. It was clear that attention to detail had been lavished on the small space, with modern decoration and good quality furniture. The bathroom was equally well appointed and very modern with a jacuzzi bath for those that like that sort of thing. It was clear that a lot of thought had been put into making it a comfortable environment and it was appreciated. The public areas of the hotel are equally modern but extremely comfortable. We found the staff to be very helpful, pleasant and efficient everywhere.
We had booked on a bed and breakfast basis, but returned for dinner each of the three nights of our stay. Why would you not? The menu is not massively extensive, focusing on comfort food and pub classics, but you will be pushed to find better value anywhere else in Ambleside and the quality is outstanding. Breakfasts are the same. The choice was excellent and the cooked breakfasts were well presented and delicious. The dining area is comfortable and modern and a very relaxing place to eat.
We used the pool and spa during our stay and found it to be one of the best of any we have used in the smaller hotels we have stayed in around the world. Pool towels are provided in your rooms and replaced by housekeeping as necessary. You need to exchange your room keys at reception for fob bracelets to gain access to the leisure centre. There seemed to be some issues with the technology as many lockers were out of use. I left my belongings in one that the fob would not activate, but it wasn't an issue as there is a room safe for storing valuables. The outdoor spa area was very pleasant and a bonus.
This was a first stay for us and it was extremely enjoyable. Lots of other people must feel the same, as the hotel was very busy - always a good sign. This is a great place to stay and we would love to return in the near future. less

I and my wife spent three nights at the hotel which is ideally situated in the heart of Ambleside and within easy (as easy as Lake District roads get!) reach of the Lakes and the coast (Ravenglass etc). We were delighted with all the staff from our initial reception through dining and house-keeping. All the staff were friendly and efficient, acting very quickly on requests (change of pillows and a sink plug not holding water both dealt with in minutes). Our room was billed as overlooking a car park - which it did but only if one looked down! In fact, the view was mostly of the nearby hills and we'd likely ask for the same room again (Superior King) as it was quiet and well appointed. The only inconvenience we suffered was the lift being out of order so the poor girl on reception had to haul a very heavy suitcase up two flights of stairs and along some long corridors. [I gather some guests had overloaded the lift, to see how many they could get in..... and broken it.] Can't really blame the hotel for that and it didn't cause any real problems during the stay. Breakfast was excellent with a large choice but I'd say the only disappointment was dinner on the first evening when we both opted for roast chicken. It was rather flavourless and was not very tender (which I fed back to the waiter). It may just have been bad luck but we opted for dinner elsewhere for the following two nights and I can recommend Zeffirellis (under the cinema) for possibly the best pizza around and their wide range of excellent home-made puddings. We will definitely go back to the Salutation and can wholeheartedly recommend it. less

Currently on our last night of a 3 night stay. Welcoming, clean and comfortable. Had dinner here the first night, good service and good food. Breakfast has a very good cold buffet, alongside an excellent cooked breakfast option. Only negative is the plumbing, noise from other showers etc not good. Swimming pool is good too. less

Patient: I have been taking birth control and had missed a pill during my second week of pills. During this time I also had unprotected sex. I took a plan b pill two days after I had sex. I started what I thought was my period on time. I had a normal flow but then it stopped after day two which is unusual. It usually lasts for four or five days. Could I be pregnant?
Doctor: Hi,Thanks for the query.I understand your concern.As you used birth control pills regularly just before the dat e of intercourse and as you took the emergency pill within 72 hours of the intercourse, the possibility of pregnancy is less.While using birth control pills some amount of irregularity in withdrawal bleeding is common and usually withdrawal bleeding will be lighter than normal menstrual flow.If you want to rule out the possibility of pregnancy, please go for urine pregnancy test once.Take care

Chances are you don't know everything, that's your mother's job. You probably aren't sure exactly when the perfect time is to pop the question. "Popping the question" sounds so casual, but timing is everything. The right timing can change a "no" to a "yes." So, how do you make sure you're proposing on the right clock? First of all, take a breath. Secondly, read the tips below so you can pop that question, get to "yes," and have perfect timing.
How Do You Really Feel?
Check in with yourself. Do you feel truly ready? You may have a ring, but that doesn't say what's in your heart. Are you letting the opinions of those pressuring you to get married effect your decisions? Be honest with yourself. Take a moment to consider being already married to your partner, instead of thinking about the proposal. Does the thought of being married thrill you in a good way? If so, then you're probably ready to get down on one knee to your beloved. If the thought thrills you in the "I'm going to throw up" kind of way, you may want to reconsider your timing and wait for a better opportunity.
Is Your Partner Ready for Marriage?
It's one thing to be ready yourself, but what about the other person in this proposal equation? One ready person plus one not-so-ready person does not equal success with a marriage proposal. You want to be really confident of your own feelings, sure, but that means nothing if your partner isn't ready. Be really careful with the mismatch of your feelings, especially because your partner might say "yes" before they're ready, which can cause a myriad of problems.
Be mindful of how your partner talks about marriage. Do they condone marriage, disregard the idea, or not speak of it at all? Are you getting an ultra-commitment vibe from them or do you feel them pulling away? If you feel distant from your partner at all, consider postponing the proposal until things are a bit more stable. Believe it or not, proposing won't fix a broken relationship. The right time for a marriage proposal is always with both people are on the same page.
The Hints Are Strong with This One
The easiest way to tell if it's the right time to pop the question is to pick up on the verbal and non-verbal cues your partner is sending your way. These little hints can range from casually leaving a wedding magazine laying about, to pasting a ring advertisement to your forehead while you sleep. Usually, the hints are pretty easy to spot. If your partner is talking rings, you most likely have the go ahead to "surprise" them.
Too Young, Too Soon?
A good measuring tool for that perfect proposal timing is your ages. Age can really effect how someone will feel about a marriage proposal. The typical scenario is, the younger you are, the more time you should be together before proposing. Sometimes an older couple can get away with a quicker engagement, since both parties are more mature and have had more time to consider marriage. By considering your ages, you can make an educated guess on whether your partner will be ready and whether the timing is appropriate.
You've Got the Money, Honey
Let's say both you and your partner are ready. You're so ready, it's ridiculous. What's also ridiculous is the cost of that ring. How will you afford the engagement photos? The right time to propose is when you have the money to do so. Of course, don't go crazy and try to spend way outside your budget. Set a reasonable goal and wait until that goal is achievable. This way, both you and your partner will have a stress-free engagement. You'll be able to pick out the ring you want, and do other proposal surprises if you wish, without taking out a large loan.
Time of the Year
If the timing of the proposal is everything, what about the time of the year? If you're thinking about proposing, but it's the anniversary of a death or other sensitive event, maybe another time would be better. People often associate trauma with a time of the year in which past traumatic events happened. You may be chomping at the bit with excitement, but your partner won't be fully ready. You want this to be an exciting moment for both of you, so that you can relive the moment for years to come. Make sure the context surrounding the proposal event is good and you're in the clear.
The right time can feel elusive, but if you listen to your instincts and follow these tips, you should be able to avoid any major proposal snafus. Try to block out any voices telling you when you should pop the question and trust your own instincts.
Society loves to tell us what to do. Some people see their friends or family get engaged and they think it's way too soon, and others think the engagement comes too late. Don't let the haters get to you. Look at it this way, if you're seriously considering when the right time is, you're already halfway there. Good luck and happy proposing!

Fly fishermen call adult common stoneflies (Perlids) "Golden Stones," obviously for very good reasons. While I can't swear that this is a genus Perlesta golden stone, I'd be willing to put money on it. Perlesta nymphs are common in a lot of our streams at the moment -- as you know if you've been reading along --
and I can't really think of anything else this would be. Some more photos of this beautiful terrestrial insect.
And here's another look at the nymph that turns into this insect when it hatches.
I found quite a few of these nymphs, mostly by looking in leaf packs, and I also saw a lot of "shucks" on the rocks, "skins" left behind by those nymphs that have already hatched. But I also found a Perlesta nymph that I feel sure must be a different species than the one that I commonly see.
There were some other treasures today: it was a very satisfying trip to the stream.
1. Another genus Alloperla "green stonefly" (Chloroperlid): I've now found these lime green nymphs in three different streams. This is the first year that I've seen them.
Plauditus dubius, male:
Plauditus dubius, female:
Baetis flavistriga, female. (The one I found yesterday was a male.) Note the paired "kidney-shaped spots" on the abdominal terga and the medial band on the tails. This photo is much clearer than those I was able to get yesterday.
4. And a Darner dragonfly nymph, the first I've seen this season.
The long, thin shape of the nymph is one of the keys to family ID. But the critical thing is the shape of the prementum -- it's wider at the front than it is at the back. (You'll need to put the nymph on its back to see this.)
We can ID this to the level of genus: Boyeria. One of the distinguishing features of Boyeria Darners is the way the paraprocts curve inward at the tips.
