Bloggy friends, Are you sitting down? Oh, right. Anyway, I have big news! Last night I got a call from my cousin Butch (hereafter known as the best cousin a girl could have or BC). Well, BC had donated 250.00 to the Clinton campaign in order to attend a breakfast with the candidate. AND HE COULDN'T GO! So, would I mind filling in for him? Well, OK. I'm all about the family. So, I went to the Hyatt Regency this morning, and who is introducing Senator Clinton? That's right. . . Gloria Steinem. Yes, my friends, The . Gloria. Steinem. Of course, the 250.00 tickets were the cheap seats (read, no seats at all--we just stood in the back), so most of my pictures of Senator Clinton ended up looking like this. And this. And this. Yes, that is a man with thinning hair in front of the senator. Before the speeches, I heard a rumor that Gloria Steinem was going to be speaking at Justin's Ice Cream Parlor later in the day. So I high-tailed it down there and I met Gloria Steinem. ...

Cute little quiz. How is the grading coming? I am now off to prep for my last semester at the closing little community college I have loved teaching for. Enjoy your day!
I imagine I'd get some sort of terrier today, which would be absolutely appalling so it's probably all to the good.
German Shepherd
The Perfectionist
Doggedly dedicated to getting the job done, you don't let silly little distractions get in the way of putting in a full day's work. And after you come home, chowing down on a little grub and taking a little catnap is all it takes to get you up and at 'em for round two, whatever that may entail. Your dogma emphasizes the importance of hard work, and you swim laps around your dog-paddling, time-wasting co-workers. Your cleverness leads to you often being entrusted with some pretty important tasks, which you are always more than happy to sink your canines into. You really dig being outdoors and love a bit of exercise, but you draw the line at the ridiculous stuff, choosing a game of beach volleyball over Pilates in the park any day. Learn more »

Cool quiz, Karen.
The Achiever. I don't know about being an achiever, but I am a hard worker like a boarder collie.
Oh and thanks for stopping by and wishing me well. I'm shocked at how knocked down I've been by this virus. Today I managed to get out of bed at about 12:30 and have been sitting upright ever since. I think the worst is over. If it isn't then I want to be hit in the head and put out of my misery.
I have a German Shepherd but have not become one! There's still time. . .
