My blogroll is out of date--there are some blogs noticeably missing (Tummy!) and others that are defunct. Add in the fact that blogrolling is up and down and my blogs don't get the ~new~ indicator with any reliability, I'm thinking I should scrap it. So, before I go into the arduous task of adding links in html (assuming I even remember HOW to do so), who do you think I need to add? What links are obsolete? I know some folks have changed sites, but I'm not even sure what the addys are anymore.
This is my first step in becoming a regular blogging person again. I've been far too lazy using Facebook (if you have one and I'm not your friend, add me, dammit. If you don't have one, WHY NOT?) and myspace to catch up on people and rather deserted the blogs and message forums, but I realized this weekend that I miss the longer, more in depth stuff and, more importantly, miss knowing what's going on in my friends' lives.
Fall Break is halfway over and I've still got loads of things on my shitodo list, some of which won't get finished, but the blogging/reading thing? I can do that one...almost with my eyes closed.

The important issues: what do I really need to add to my clothing and shoe wardrobe for fall? The only purchases I've made thus far are cardis in navy and cream and a really long ameythst sweater tunic that is supposed to be a dress on a 20-something, but I plan to wear with a knee length black skirt and boots.
I'm thinking:
Boots--I have black, but I'm not wild about them. Brown is good, but not exactly sure how to wear them.
Heeled Mary Janes--should have gotten some last year, but I couldn't find any at a decent price. I need something closed-toe that is not too dressy.
Coat--I do not own a winter coat. I did snag a gorgeous black rain trench last May (it was in the lost and found at school and no one claimed it. London Fog, fully lined, classic shape w/ belt. LOVE!). I think I want a 'car coat', but no idea after that.
Black trousers--I only have a couple of pair right now. One is high-waisted/full leg that I adore, but may be a bit snug w/ a tucked in blouse right now (must.do.cardio.tomorrow!) and the other is just a regular ol' pair of black trousers in a lyrca/polyester/non-organic fabric. I love these because they are uber-forgiving and super comfy while not looking like I'm schlepping. Are there any 'must-have' styles this fall?
Trouser jeans--I finally found a pair at Sears of all places, but sadly, they are a wee bit snug. I do intend to be able to wear them by T-giving. I don't want to be a one-trick pony with them, though. Mine are a very dark blue--almost black in some light. Can I get away with a more denim shade?
Flowy blouses--I'm torn on these because I fear I look preggo. I wore a very sack-like dress to work last week--it's adorable: pucci-esque (only in the fact that it is multi-colored blocks not in the actual look of the print, but you get the idea) tunic that has no waist at all. It came with a tie belt, but the loops are low on my hips, so tying the belt made a very unfortunate silhouette. I think if I was about thirty pounds lighter I could wear the belt, but as for now--no belt I bought it at Primark in London on Oxford street--my mecca for cheap, trendy clothes. What the hell was I talking about? Oh yeah, blouses. The dress definitely pushed the maternity edge from some angles, so I'm not sure about the blouses. Is that a style one should avoid if not flat-chested? Or super size 4 thin?
Hats--I love hats. I have a hat haircut again. What style? I have a few newsboy style and a couple of what I can only classify as Fidel Castro style caps, but what else? Casual--not dressy. I don't dress up.
I'm off to haunt some blogs--I feel as if I've been away for a year. I have a lot of catching up to do!

Sarah Palin is as dumb as a box of rocks. There's just no.nice.way. to frame her. from suggesting that Putin is going to attack us via Alaska or that seeing Russia is adequate foreign policy education to not knowing a SINGLE Supreme Court case by name--let alone one that she disagrees with while railing against legislating from the bench--she is just to fucking stupid for words.
I have lost faith in our system. That she could even be CONSIDERED for president is just mind-numbing.

If I were to be driving along a fairly busy four-lane road and say, accidentally nearly hit a couple of Amish guys standing on the yellow line trying to cross traffic because I wasn't as alert as I should have been...well, nearly hit is such a strong phrase...more like, swerved and potentially startled a couple of Amish men..okay, scared them a bit...not like 'peeing in their pants' scared, but 'OMFG get out of the way' scared...well, without the F and G part of that acronym since I guess they wouldn't say "fucking" or take God's name in vain in a moment of life-or-death fear... although I've seen a couple of those Dateline specials about how wild and crazy some Amish guys can be in their youth and once you've experienced the effectiveness of expressing anger, fear, confusion, disgust and the like by the use of gratuitous swear word, it might be that you can't put that Genie/genie back in the proverbial bottle (slightly OT...would an Amish person get that Genie/genie reference reference?), so who knows what they might say....aw, fuck, I've totally lost my train of thought now....oh, yeah. Would God hold me to a stiffer penalty if I caused life-altering fear/pain/death to the Amish or are they worth the same hellfire as regular people. By regular people I mean you and me, not, say a crackhead or a Ted-Bundy-in-training or a politician or whack job like ol' Rev. Phelps.
Thus endeth my philosophical rambling for today.

Reasons I am no fan of Sarah Palin:
1. Her gratuitous use of her children when it suits her needs. When others try to hold her to some sort of consistent standard, she balks. Any mother who would put her children under the intense media spotlight knowing that it was going to be a messy, torrid affair is selfish and pathetic
2. Her total bullshit lies about everything from the bridge to nowhere to her lobbyist hired to suck at the teat of the DC Cash Cow full-time. She is the personification of Pork Barrel Spending and doesn't have the guts to admit it and move on.
3. She references her state's proximity to Russia as some sort of resume item. I don't give a rat's ass if you can see Putin himself out your igloo window, it doesn't equate experience in diplomacy.
4. She lied about going into Iraq and presented a gas-stop in Ireland as an actual visit to the country.
5. She left Wasilla in debt to the tune of 20 million, despite her own crowing about being a fiscal conservative. She was a terrible personnel manager by many accounts, too. Appointing ANYONE to a state-level position based on her childhood love of cows is a complete farce. Palin embodies everything about cronyism that is wrong with political posts.
6. Being mayor of a tiny-ass town or governor of a sparsely populated state with little interaction with other states in the US is technically 'executive' experience, but hell, GWB had far more executive experience than she has and his presidency has been a total clusterfuck.
7. Not knowing the exact nuances of the so-called Bush Doctrine is fine, but looking as if you've never heard of it or even bothered to study it a bit? Unacceptable. That would be like me running for a school board seat and not knowing what NCLB's basic tenets are. It's part of the damn job, moron.
8. Whining about the mean old press bullying you is not impressive. It is wimpy. Are you going to go hide in Mooseville when you don't want to deal with dudes at the G8? And even the mere appearance of believing the lipstick on a pig comment was directed to a description of her is dirty politicking and old-school DC antics that she is allegedly against--she's a complete hypocrite when she claims to be against the regular politics as usual.
9. I'm all for religion, but when you belong to a church that believes people speak in tongues or one that offers to cure gay people, I think your religion is up for scrutiny and it shows a great deal about one's thought process and level of intellect.
10. I do not respect her sarcastic, holier-than-thou digs made at Obama and Biden simply because she has earned exactly zero right to throw out commentary on anything until she is willing to speak to reporters or be interviewed on her own ideas.
11. She says she was a PTA mom like it is equivalent to a poli sci degree. Sorry, two frigging years in the backwoods PTA when her son was in elementary school is not the type of experience in consensus-building that 99.99999 percent of the the thinking world would imagine when asked to list relevant experience.
12. She named her children Track and Trig. I can overlook a lot of things, but saddling her child with the name Track is just unacceptable. Forever.

Your Palin Baby Name generator. My name is Steam Fangs Palin. Catchy, eh? Thanks to
Other issues:
Troopergate
Her husband's ties to AIP as well as her own participation in their activities
Her ties to Ted Stevens
Her flipping and flopping on everything so that she comes across as believing in nothing other than being a shrill harpy shrew with a terrible hairstyle and glasses that are supposed to make people take her more seriously. Perhaps if she said anything that was seriously intelligent, she might not have to resort to appearing as Miss Beadle's older sis on Little House on the Prarie.
I'm an education snob and six colleges in five years is not impressive to me in the least.
That's it for now--I'm going to go find something other than political news and blogs to read.

Damn, I didn't realize that it had been six weeks since I posted anything. Time flies when you're buried alive at work and at home. Yikes.
I don't have anything particularly witty to say at the moment, but I will make a very concerted effort to come up with something this weekend. I have been so infuriated over the idiocy that is the Palin nomination and boggled by John McCain's ability to lie like a rug with not even the slightest appearance that he's being a shit that I haven't been able to focus on the more amusing things in life.
So, if I can get something done about my filthy house I will be back later this evening or tomorrow.

Will post something brilliant or witty or insightful later. For now, I must go be professionally developed to better prepare me for what I am determined will be the best school year ever.
Have a lovely Monday and go blog to amuse me.

I've been less computer-oriented the past week or so than I have in years. My laptop had to be sent away because of a motherboard/wireless connection problem that HP's laptops developed. They extended the warranty to cover the problem, thank goodness, so all I had to do was send it in and they're replacing my motherboard. While it's been gone, I've been using the fabulous new Dell desktop that I bought for W. for his bday/Father's Day/you're in nursing school and you need a better computer. Between W. and the kids, there's not much free time online, lol. The nice part is that I've not really missed it, kwim? I run in and check in here and there for a second and then I get up and go do something else. I think that's what my poor manic brain needed.
I've read a LOT of books in the past month. I desperately need to update my Goodreads info. Goodwill had their monthly 50% off everything sale yesterday and I went into book-buying overdrive. I bought 74 books. About 15 or so are for my classroom, the kids or other teachers, but the rest of them? Novels. I had already read all the stuff I bought at McKay's last month, so I needed some more books to read on vacation next week. Once I started piling them in the cart, I couldn't stop. I found lots of good things--some book I'd been wanting to read such as Like Water for Chocolate, Atonement, Snow Falling on Cedars, some Maeve Binchy and Steve Matini titles and the like. I also bought several Patricia Cornwell and Mary Higgins Clark titles and a couple of Sue Grafton's alphabet series as well. I tried to get a good variety so that W. and SIL would have stuff to read, too. I read Atonement yesterday. I've been reading a book a day for the past couple of weeks. I am forcing myself to cut back this week in order to get housework and mommy stuff done. I have seven days next week with nothing to do but cook a few meals, supervise my ornery children and lie on the beach. Such a rough life I lead, lol.
We're going to Gulf Shores, Alabama, for a nice stay. SIL and MIL, Lynda (with a friend) and Jeffrey are going, too. The condo will be a bit full, but I think we're going to have fun. It will be a treat to have more adults around so that the kids have more options--I'm very much a lie on the beach and read/nap/people watch kind of chick. W. is all about fishing. The kids like to do both, plus swim in a pool. Usually since we only have one car there, it takes a bit of juggling to get everyone where they want to be, but this time will be a bit easier. Sometimes I take for granted how well-located Tennssee is. We're just a seven-hour or so drive from great beaches on the Gulf, three or four hours from Atlanta or Memphis, a long day's drive from DC, three hours from the Smokey Mountains, etc.
Five is on a mission trip to Kentucky this week. He'll be helping repair homes in a poverty-stricken area. Packing for a week for him was no fun. Just the sheer volume of t-shirts alone was daunting. I used my fabulous Delsey suitcase that my mom gave me for Christmas. When I had all of his stuff packed, I called him in so I could explain what I was sending and the first thing he said was, "Mom, I think the suitcase is a bit too big. I think I'm supposed to bring a small bag." Translated: He was embarrassed that the suitcase was so large. I had quite a time explaining to him that in order to take enough long pants and shorts, t-shirts for working and for hanging out, socks, boxers, towels, medicine, toothbrush and other personal stuff AND a tool belt, measuring tape, nail apron and hammer along with an extra pair of shoes, there really wasn't any way to take a small carry-on sized suitcase. He pondered this and then asked, "Well, can you try to put the sleeping bag in the suitcase?" Uh, no. An adult-sized sleeping bag will NOT fit into an already loaded suitcase. He resigned himself to looking like a tourist and moved on to more important topics--snacks for the trip.
Sam, Jay and I are home on our own this week. W. has to work everyday but Thursday, so the boys and I will be doing a great deal of pool time and maybe a trip or two to the park. They havie swim lessons every day, so that gives us a good reason to get up and get ready at a decent hour. Speaking of swim lessons, I guess I should go get stuff ready. A day at the pool requires much food and drink planning and I'm such a ditz I have to allow enough time to figure out what I've forgotten.
Hope everyone had a great 4th!!
Oh, last thing....my cousin's daughter has a fabulous new online biz--Good Fortune Soap. All her things are handmade with natural ingredients. She's going to be sending me some samples so I can farm them out to some of you. When they arrive, I'll post more info and tiny little presents will be shipped out to those who want some.
I cannot seem to get into a good workout routine. Either something comes up at the last minute or my neck hurts so much that I don't dare do anything strenuous.

My laptop wireless card died and when I looked it up online, I found out that it was a hardware malfunction (wireless card and motherboard clash, so new motherboard and card for me) and HP extended the warranty for this problem, which is the good news. The bad news is that it has to be mailed off and will be away from home for 7-9 business days or so. Our desktop is really slow AND I have about a zillion things that I need to do around the house, so this will be a good time to get my arse in gear.
I will pop in different places from time to time and if you have my number, feel free to call.

Tummy suggested that I buy a Ped Egg for my yucky callous (heels have not been kind to my feet this spring. Perhaps 3" is too high for work?). I happened to mention said product at a family thing this week and two people there both insisted that I needed to try it. I left the party and went straight to Walgreens to find one. Lo, there it was on an end cap beckoning me. I had to buy it.
I expected to either gash myself and bleed all over the place or not be able to tell a difference. I was wrong on both counts. My feet are MUCH smoother and the gross tough places are much less noticeable. For some weird reason, I take much pleasure in emptying the egg and seeing all the funky dead skin that has come off the bottom of my foot--sort of like using those Biore strips.
If you haven't already, go buy a Ped Egg. Your feet will thank you.
P.S. Jay thought I had bought a Pet Egg. He couldn't figure out what all the fuss was. Sam, on the hand, saw it and immediately knew it was a Ped Egg and that it was for scraping the dead skin off your feet AND that it was so gentle, you can rub it against a ballon and it won't pop. My little TV geek.
