msbelle, my old boss had a theory that no kids party should be more than an hour. Get them in, give them food, a game, cake, open presents and boom, out the door with a gift bag before they get all rangy.
I have let myself had a day of sleeping in and doing fun things since I am still feeling all mopey. I went and saw my faourite singer do an instore for Record Store Day, the I went to see Ginger and Rosa, which was really well done, but with a dodgy ending. But Alessandro Nivola...he's so damn attractive.
44 years later, my parents are vindicated. The man who just delivered meds to my house says his daughter goes by "Ita", although her name is Isabel. She had been called "Isabelita", and then...THIS is what my parents told me my name was. But I have never (and I've asked) found anyone who'd heard of that use.
Said former Isabel even changed the name on her drivers license. COOL.
I thought they would play video games all afternoon, that is what usually happens. This one kids seems unable to do one thing for that long. so ugh. I told mac to stop the in and out of the house stuff. I told the kids to stop yelling in the house and to stay in the back room when they are inside.
msbelle, sounds like it's time for frisbee. Make them run without them knowing that you're making them run.

Exam is over and I feel pretty good about it. Actually, I pretty good about how I did on it, I feel great about the exam in general - if I didn't do well enough this time to get a job I have a good idea of what to study for next time, and it was actually kind of fun to take which bodes well for liking the hypothetical job I am hoping to eventually get.
I should be out enjoying this beautiful day, but what I really want to do is watch TV. I think I will indulge myself.
JZ - azaleas are pretty hardy, they might survive the radical pruning.
This is very important: [link]

YAY
I think I need to start looking for another new hairdresser. This was the third visit, and while she got my hair the basic shape I want it, she did it by taking out over half the weight, which isn't what I wanted because at that point it's not my hair anymore.
Plus, the color is wrong.
Yeah, sounds like time for a change.
I'm switching salons myself, the place is getting hard for me to make appointments at (because they are busier, which is good for them) and I'm not thrilled with my latest cut. I think I will try the place that's in the old bank building, I hear you get your hair washed inside the vault there.
