Bookmarks @ MindSay

Firefox needs to stop killing my bookmarks.

I suggest you look at the Amusing Euphemism Generator I put on my bookmarks section.

It's really great.

My Favorite So Far:
"You Should have seen him smacking the incandescent baton"

So, y'may have noticed by now that I bookmark things I like. Y'all should give a few of them a look-see.

Y'may also have noticed that I'm trying to build an alphabet. Only one item per letter. Now and again, I change something's name so that it'll work. Geography Lesson being something very silly, for example.

Well, now I'm stuck. Because it finally occurred to me to check myspace for Up 'til 2. They're an a cappella group. Donovan, the lead, is from a town where I used to go to school, so they made a brief appearance at one of our concerts. They're really quite good. I wish they had a cd out, but a good deal of their charm is seeing them live. Most talented.

But, Ursula's also good. I appreciate them both for different reasons. And I don't want to downplay hers to just being "deviant". Maybe "Hedgehogs" would work, but that's still not quite fair to her.

So, this'll have to be the exception. All right? I'm not doing this for everybody!

(I actually felt very stupid when I wanted to bookmark Ludlow's blog. His real name and his comic name are both already taken for letters - and then I remembered that the the name of his blog starts with a V. Sigh. Click.)

- The Aquarium was good fun, even if the sun was not sunning and if kindergartners were a little wild.  Also, why is it I had to play chaperone to the parents on this trip!?!?!  I felt like I had 3 extra kids instead of 3 chaperones (Chloe's mom was good as usual, Aaron's mom is an allstar, Leila's mom is totally spacy but she handled Jesus, Keita's dad is alright, but he was hanging out with Taiyo's who is the woooooooooooooooooooorst).  Whatevs.  I got to see my beloved walrus, Iyvek, and other amazing sea animals.  Rain be damned. 

Then I found my way to Strawberry Fest, which was thankfully NOT canceled, despite the rain.  They moved some stuff into Kimmel, and some was still outside, and all was good.  Saw L'Choi, Veronica verrrrrry briefly, Banga who was a jerk, Birju, and for a short moment, Jess and John.  I also saw Suchi when I went to get PAID, but she decided not to stay.  LOOOOOSER.  Almost as bad as her roommate.

Finally, I'm heading back into this, but I am DAMN proud of the bookmarks I am making my students for my last day on Tuesday.  I was initally going to buy them all a book on a topic they liked (which was my excuse to go to the Strand and buy Alexa copies of the Baby-sitters Club), but heyyyy THAT'S EXPENSIVE.  So instead, I am using BOARDMAKER (which is just amazing) to construct bookmarks for my lovelies.  A little difficult, but worth it.  5 done, 5 to go.  Tomorrow, will take them to Staples to get laminated.  Then to buy Cathleen and Nicole their giftcards, and I am SETTTTTTT.
