Random stuff

-- A description of Christian boot camp. I think I'm going to throw up. And hate people a little more than normal today.

-- Project Runway marathon of the first season today. Woohoo!

-- I have maple walnut ice cream and ice cream cones. Clearly I win at something.

-- I've spent the last two days writing down scenes and dropping them in those silly baggies. And continuing to feel like a ginormous dork because of it. But hey, whatever works.

-- Today's the first day I'm supposed to go back to work, and instead I think I'll go to sleep at six and not wake up until ... you know, whenever. Heh.

-- Someone keep me away from my Amazon wishlist and adding stuff to it that's so expensive I can neither afford it nor would want anyone to spend that much on me who wasn't directly involved in my conception and birth. (On the other hand, it IS a wishlist, hence my overwhelming urge to have some ridiculously expensive computer on there at all times.) EDIT: Oh, holy crap, I found a pink laptop. It's like a Barbie laptop! *flails* If one of you wins the Powerball tonight, you'll buy it for me, yes? Complete with a bag of sparkly gel pens and hair clips? And maybe a pony?

My eyes sort of glazed over at the words "maple walnut ice cream." How do you obtain such a thing?

And as to writing: Yes, whatever works.

So, I was thinking about your "plot baggies" and I remembered a thing we had in school that I think you can maybe buy in education stores...it's a large (blue) plastic rectangle with grommets in the top for hanging and rows of clear plastic pockets. There's probably a name for it, but perhaps it's recognisable from my dubious description. Anyway, I recall using it to play 'Jeopardy' in high school Japanese class and it would probably work for index cards with notes...and it's easy to fold up and put away and rehang somewhere else...
ION, this is a really long comment...
Also, I'm scared to click the 'Christian Boot Camp' link...what if it makes me sad all day!!!? :)

OMGBARBIELAPTOP.

That is all. Because I am trying to distract myself enough from the boot camp post to be able to work. Holy mother of God.

I'm sorry, but that is not in any way something that would fit a real description of a Christian school or camp. In that situation, it seems the Christian label was slapped on it so that parents were fooled into thinking that they were sending their children into something appropriate and nurturing. I've been a believer for a long time and everything I put my faith in was revolted by that girl's story. I hate that she went through it and I find it disgusting that people would subject children (hell, anyone) to it. But don't call it Christian, because that doesn't come anywhere close.
