Do you ever worry about getting on in your years, and getting dementia? Well reading the March/April issue of http://technologyreview.com/ I was taken by an article called Brain Trainer. A company here in the bay area, http://positscience.com/ is developing a brain fitness program. It is an interesting concept to keep us keen. So in the future when you plan your fitness routines, don't forget physical and mental wo

The moon so wide and bright
Sometimes I cannot bear the light

Just reminded about this weeks upcoming full
Will I see you in the midst of my wool

Children adore and jump at the site of the moon
In this way we are lucky everyday is a soon

The sizes and shapes it shows are a joy to see
What will I think when I see you this Wendnesdee

Ever wonder what those emoticons are really saying in yahooIM? Like the guy showing --hold on I'm on the phone--, where the phone is blue? I think he is saying "I am going to go upstairs and tell the boss off right now, and tell him what I really think of him. For crying out loud"

Can any of you read emoicon lips? Any other thoughts here?

So today there is this construction machine banging into the ground next to my office building, they are drilling/banging large poles into this Oakland lot. Well it is sortof a turn on for us girls in the office; it is making the chairs vibrate (I confirmed that I was not alone). So what are we to do?

Option 1) Conduct keggle exercises in rhythm while seated in the chair

Option 2) Go hang out in the ladies room stall and do whatever comes naturally

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN

Today is John's Birthday what can we say?

He delivers us poetry every single day

Yeats, Carver, Goethe, Thomas all quoted greats

None compare to Slash's JohnDiii and all his traits

When at last I see thy love

My heart swells with beats of joy

Wonder and amazement pulse through my veins

All the world could rock but for you.

Oh Poetic John,

My brother Michael is autistic. Everyday I am blessed that I grew up with him and that I learned that when you are around someone so perfect, that he in fact makes you more perfect. For you learn to be good and kind to all people and that who are especially perfect. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11526448/ I hope some of you are as lucky as me, and can be around someone like Michael or Jason often :)

After that weekend I needed something to take my mind off of the IMs and emails from depressed in Virginia. I took an interesting aerial shot of me last week w/ out my face showing. Yesterday I decided to post a CL personal posting for woman seeking man. It has been rumored that woman posting get hundreds of hits. This I confirmed. Of the 300 emails I received these past 30 hours. 70% are inappropriate, out of age range (too young/old), not my type. 30% were possibilities. This seemed like a pre

Sigh..... OK so my Internet & phone instinct are not so great. Or maybe they are and I simply wanted something and was willing to take a 2600+mile trip 1 day, meet for 2 days, 2600+ mile trip back to find out, if I or we could 'make it happen'. I did find out and WHAM! nada, zip, what was I thinking, coocoo etc... One directional interest and towards me and not from me :( For inquiring minds...my learnings: 1) Do ignore your parents phone calls when they call when you are

So now the fear factors are starting to enter my brain and his. We are no longer meeting at the airport for our first historic meeting. We are going to meet on the boardwalk instead. Oh man Oh man Oh man. I guess this allows for hands in pockets if the chemistry is minimal. Thank God for Southwest frequent flyer miles! How freaken nuts is this? Breath... good man, plays bluegrass, writes songs and poetry, devoted Dad, wears a kilt when celebrating his Scottish roots and well he calls me Darlin (

Off to the East Coast in 4 days. To meet a stranger. How strange is this? We long for someone. I have uncertainty on several angles, but I long. I long for something. I long for something in my heart. Something real and touchable, something scaring yet exciting, something deep yet wonderously simple.

Is it really possible to fall in love online? Hmmm? What the hell is this feeling that we sometimes get with someone online? Is it purely our fantasy of what we want in a mate? Is it our mind playing tricks on us? They say that sex is 90% in the brain. If so, then what about online chat? Not physical, only in our minds as we type, sometimes seeing someone's pic, sometimes not... Ahhh Hmmm? Sigh...
