as jen pointed out, the iPod can be a harsh mistress (unlike her, i did look under its skirt)...

anyhow, i got Minnie (my iPod Mini's name, get it - i crack me up - named for, well, the obvious reason, and partly because i loved minnie driver in the phantom of the opera and partly because of one of the guys on the style channel has a cute dog minnie...) an iTrip and these little things that make the ear buds feel better (my one *gasp* compalint about Minnie is that her earbuds were a bit uncomfortable - much better now)... i was however, heartbroken - i dropped her (no00000oooo...i am sorry - it was an accident) - and she has a tiny scratch - but i think it just adds to her charm (at least that's what i'm telling myself)...next stop: hmmmmm or hmmmmm though i should probably consider this, to prevent further injuries

had lingoberry crepes for breakfast at ihop...yum

am going to donate a photo to this benefit

i am working on an Access project, which is taking more time than i thought, but i think i'm in good shape...doing a mini-class for hisgh school students in a couple of weeks i must prepare for - but my class is done - so i have completed my masters (though i won't be happy til i have the paper)...am teaching a class too - which is going well...with my class over and more relevant, no more writing assignmentws, perhaps i'll start posting more...
