I just watched the last 20 min. of Oprah

D, Your Dosha is Vata

Creative and restless, you take in all of life's pleasures (maybe a little too much!). You're quick witted and very talkative, but you also tend to have a spotty memory. You tend to get very into ideas, people, and lifestyles... but only for a short time. It's difficult to hold your attention, and you sometimes feel (missing mystery word) with what life has to offer. With friends: You are very uncomfortable in new situations or with new people In love: You fall in and out of love very easily To achieve more balance: Live in a warm climate and spend some quiet time in nature

What's Your Dosha?

N, Your Dosha is Pitta

You have a quick mind, a gift for persuasion, and a sharp sense of humor. You have both the drive and people skills to be a very successful leader. Argumentative and a bit stubborn, you have been known to be a little too set in your ways. But while you may be biased toward your own point of view, you are always honest, fair, and ethical. With friends: You are outgoing and open to anyone who might want to talk to you In love: You are picky but passionate To achieve more balance: Be less judgmental of those around you, and take cool walks in the moonlight.

hi

A man wrote on my head in red crayon this morning: Death by 23 small x's. I am a zombie! It is sooooooo much easier to TCB when you have a weekday off, let me tell you, zombie or not. As of today: A. Neil is insured on our car. B. Our car is registered for another year, so the next time we get pulled over for having a 3/06 sticker, we can shout, "The new sticker is in the mail, suckaaaaa!" C. I will not be fired for the fact that my state licensure is up 6/30 and I have not yet sent in the renewal form, since Mary from ADHS said processing time is fast and they'll fax an advance copy of the new license. D. No fewer than 76 cards are waiting blankly to be transformed into thank-you notes. E. The post office has confirmed that it's not holding onto copies of Neil's "The Economist," which apparently didn't come during our two weeks away.

And as of yesterday, we found a house to rent! It is really cool. The walls are different colors, including blue, green and light yellow, I think. The colors are classy -- not too primary or too light. Kind of Ralph Lauren Santa Fe. And there's a yard! And many windows, including in the bathroom. And wood floors. And it is situated just NE of Grant and Campbell, which is farther from our jobs but in a lovely neighborhood that is jogging-friendly and walking distance from Bookman's, Yoga Oasis, sushi, Indian, Vietnamese, coffee, etc. Right now I am completing my CEUs (continuing education units) online and learning about the demonstrated efficacy of lingual strengthening exercises on the swallowing efficiency of people with ALS, Parkinson's, ataxic dysarthria, spastic cerebral palsy and closed head injuries. Please don't hesitate to submit any questions.

Queen's Birthday

We are married! The front quarters of the apartment smell like Raid. Neil arrived from work early in the afternoon and found the kitchen teeming with ants. At work, probably around the same time, Diana suddenly pictured "ANTS!" as a good name for a horror flick. This demonstrates ESP. Or the ability to remember the names of films made barely 8 years ago.

Marriage is nice, so far. My mind is a delicious soup, secondary to fatigue. Thank you, friends, family and the weather, for a lovely wedding. We are happy.

I just read James M. Cain's Mildred Pierce and found it highly enjoyable. You should read it too.

We got free beer.
