anew
Today is April.
I had a small revelation yesterday (or, it might have been an aneurysm):
After a quick IM meeting with a beloved advisor, I realized that my recurring early spring funk is always in March. I always shun the brackets. I always ignore my sister-in-law's birthday with something akin to bitter indignance. I routinely use spring break to eat and wallow in self-pity. I have, until this year, avoided people, conferences, traveling, or anything that might brighten the gray, cold, damp hell that is March in CNY.
But TODAY IS APRIL.
So, happy birthday to my honey.
And instead of April Fool, I offer April fun:
Here is a picture of my desk. (No, really. I did NOT stage this.) Can you spot:
A crust of peanut butter toast (my breakfast)
The composition book that houses my current notes on blogs in the classroom
A bag full of schnacks from my cousin that should be thrown away RIGHT NOW since they are over a week old
My iPod cord
Two pics of Hannah, but none of any of the other kids
A toothbrush
Dead wireless hub
Cs program
Phonebook
Well. Some are easier to find than others. When life gives you a mess, make a seek-and-find.

well, at least your crust of toast is on a plate. i'm more likely to just make a plate out of whatever is on top of my "work" pile (right now, that happens to be _Reassembling the Social_).

burro, at least there is discernible WORK on your desk. I just have piles of CRAP.
and susan: peanut butter toast is a STAPLE.

A seek-and-find! I MUST make one of my very own...that'll kill a couple of hours...

Lori, I'm sure your seek-and-find would be neat and orderly! And therefore much too easy. :) But still fun.
