Oh my… how the mighty have fallen. Yes! It’s official… I just flunked my Hebrew Exam. The only real question is… why it hasn’t happened sooner. I am sooooo down! I’m only taking said class pass or fail, but you know, I was getting used to that A average. S i g h!
Winter hit us Wednesday night with abandon. Last night the wind gusts were up to 60 mph and trees are showing evidence of it. Add that to the rain, and its been quite a ride! It’s supposed to blow out sometime Saturday… until then, we are living in a virtual “tree-house” for all the toppled trees out there.

23 Psalm
God is my Mother;
I am secure.
We play in the park and by the stream.
You hold me,
And I am renewed.
As I go through the transitions of life
You are there with me
Helping me to find the right path.
In the darkness of night,
In the fear of the unknown,
I know that you come to listen to me breathe.

It appears that I need to clarify a few things�
Moving: YES!!! However, before you panic, I must say that it is still in the distant future. I do intend to finish my Masters Degree here in Marin. I just have decided, that while a second MA is a good thing, I don�t necessarily want it from the GTU. There is a better program (for me�) in Seattle. And Seattle happens to be the place I call HOME. So� unless the heavens change course�and they often do!�My plan is to finish the course work here and do my Internship fourth year in Seattle. While I know that you can never truly go home� I also know there is no other place I feel more myself. (of course it remains to be seen if I can live without the beach!)
Ordination: YES!!! It�s on perma-hold. I know. That may come as a shock for some of you. However, again, it�s about being at home. Lately (the past year) the idea of being ordained has felt more like a gun to my head than home. Until that changes, I don�t see the point of being unhappy. In fact� to use my Presbyterian friend�s language: I seriously doubt you could define that feeling as a �call�.
So� where that leaves me. Well, as stated� I�m finishing here. While ordination is a long shot at best, the degree will serve my future intentions just fine. As for what those are� stay tuned.

There should be an universally understood code for “Hey, your turn signal is STILL on, three miles later.”

In desperation… I’ve taken to chatting with weirdos on the internet. ONE who actually suggested that I wasn’t weird enough to be the “ultimate” weirdo internet girl. Nor the “penultimate” weirdo. Shows you just how NORMAL you can pretend to be! If he only knew. I know the rest of you are laughing your fool heads off over this. And while I appreciate a good joke, even those at my own expense… I would like to point out, that I wouldn’t be pretending to BE normal with STRANGERS if I heard from a few of you more often. Frankly, I’m sick of begging for mail. Don’t drive me to talk to REAL strangers. I’ll do it… I mean it…
This is why I’m moving back to the Northwest… ASAP

I would like to add… You should NEVER bake when you are this tired. I mean, I should NEVER bake…Baking 101: spray non-stick stuff on inside of muffin liners if you don’t want half of your muffins to cling to said liner. Oh well, I will just eat twice as many.

Um… can I just say I’m gifted? Yesterday I cut my left hand, index finger slicing apples. TODAY, I set my right hand index finger on fire. I don’t know. This doesn’t bode well for me. I’m afraid to leave my apartment.

Every once in awhile… you have to give up stuff. It’s a bit liberating… that is if you get around to really DOING it!
Let’s play tic tac toe
I’ll play X, you can be the O.
Thoughts of turning pro
Have crossed my mind
I could make a mint
Fill my pockets with more than lint
I’ll give you a hint
It involves the “internet”
I can be that
But soon you’ll see that
I will never do anything
I can be that
But soon you’ll see that
I will never do anything

Ever had one of those days? Well… welcome to my Friday. Yeah… I know it’s Saturday already. But Friday still sits there! I don’t know. Maybe I need to BRIBE my friends into sending mail. It could work.
