Well, for tomorrow, it's a work thing. So it's teachers who are on release time from their school site and instructional coaches like me. People do all sorts of stuff, but it usually gets compiled into an anthology that is sent to all the school sites. It's not a very personal group so I'm hesitant to share personal writing.

My usual group is also teachers. Or rather retired teachers and me. I'm the youngest member by like 35 years. They've been meeting for 20+ years and I joined three years ago. I do share a lot of more personal stuff I'm working on there.

For tomorrow, I'll take a poem I started about the carillon at UCLA. Boring but distant enough and work appropriate. For the other, I'll take another chapter in a thing I've been writing about infertility.

And I'm done!!

The baby sleeps and so must I. Good night!

Anyone around who knows German and can get on IM for a minute? (I've got a link to some scans of photocopies of prints of microfilms of birth/marriage/death records for a little German village in the 1800s. I pretty much just need some help figuring out the structure -- like, the marriage records list about 8 names, and two of them are the bride and groom, then there are their parents, and the witnesses, and the rabbi, and I just need help figuring out whose name went where. It's horrible image quality and the old-fashioned German script, so I'm having a bit of trouble.)

He mentions that in Hebrew the word grace is an anagram of Noah.

That is utterly beautiful, Kat.

SOX! And d! Thanks for a fantastic evening of wonderful food and boobie conversation!!

That is lovely.

The people who thought "Oh, get support hose, ita" owe me $71.95 + tax. And those are only moderately supportive. I just hope they're more "better than nothing" than "nothing."

msbelle, I still need to hug that kid.

msbelle is a great mom. and she gets a cute kid too

sorry ita, was I one of those people? I think I was. I think I was cheaper than you and only bought one pair of hose when I needed them (and I'd totally give you them but I *did* wear them, and they are maternity hose).

I decided to blog about my semi-vegetarian Lenten diet: [link]
