Change of pace
Nigel and Ophelia left this morning to head toward their schools. Nigel was one lost owl this morning; he really really really tried to get to sleep last night, but … well, his summer habits cursed his efforts. However, he dressed his tousled zombie self and made it out the door in time to not arrive late at his school all the way across the street.
I asked Ophelia to call me and let me know what her school situation was, as she is doing a return engagement in the ninth grade, and no one is absolutely certain she will be doing it at the same school. I have yet to hear from the dear young woman, even though she said “Okay” to my request. I am choosing to believe that she is busy adjusting to her new classmates, after all sorts of socializing with her former ones who are now a grade ahead of her. She might even be paying attention to a teacher or two, which could be helpful if she plans on getting out of this grade by the time June rolls around again.
I am at work. The Boss is taking a vacation day. Hence, thus, ergo, our bimonthly will obviously be shipped to the printer tomorrow.
I am exceedingly fuzzy of brain today. I hope other people are less so. I have my work cut out for me as after Friday I am on vacation for two weeks. How thoughtful of the elves to have cut it all out for me ahead of time.
Told you: fuzzy brain.
You Are From Neptune
You are dreamy and mystical, with a natural psychic ability.
You love music, poetry, dance, and (most of all) the open sea.
Your soul is filled with possibilities, and your heart overflows with compassion.
You can be in a room full of friendly people and feel all alone.
If you don’t get carried away with one idea, your spiritual nature will see you through anything.

Brain fuzzies prevail also in NW NJ.

I think year 9 would be a sucky one to have to repeat. I hope you hear from your girlie woman. And I hope I don’t hear from my urpy woman-child (gah!). do you ever want to scrub the fuzz off your brain with something abrasive? I only ask because I do occasionally wish I could scrub off the fuzz. Is it really already 11? yeesh.

I have chronic fuzzy brain 😉

I’d give her a call since she didn’t call you. Can you go to the school. Can you call them and find out if she made it and has classes?

Well your Neptune thing …lovely, like you 🙂 Mine says ..I am Mercury: You are talkative, clever, and knowledgeable – and it shows. You probably never leave home without your cell phone! You’re witty, expressive, and aware of everything going on around you. You love learning, playing, and taking in all of what life has to offer. Be careful not to talk your friends’ ears off, and temper your need to know everything. Okay, so they clearly got it right on SOME of who I am 😉 But there’s more! hehe Hugs,

She might even be paying attention to a teacher or two let us hope.
