This can’t be right.
*Take This Test!*
I was supposed to be a chocolate glazed donut. Or a Boston cream filled donut. I don’t even like jelly donuts.

I recall vividly what I was doing two years ago today, right now. I imagine most everyone in the US remembers what they were doing too. In fact, I’m willing to bet they were doing the exact same thing I was. They were glued to the television, or the radio. They were witnessing the aftermath…
Today I Turn Five.
Apologies to anyone who has read previous entries on this. Apologies also for the length of this entry (believe it or not, I had to leave things out because it was getting too long). I have never before written all this down at one time, in one place. Today I needed to. I reserve the…
A sample of what I’m working on:
Bottle Gentian I found this about six feet off of the trail in the back of the preserve I’ve been going to. I’d never seen it before, and from what I gather, it isn’t common to our area. This is as open as the flower will get, hence the name “bottle gentian”. A small bee…
Kitten from Hell Recuperates.
KfH has found a fine place to recuperate from her operation – on top of the telephone under my desk light. I just wish someone had called me while she was there. I don’t think the operation has slowed her down much.

Call from Big City Hospital
I just got off the phone with the liver transplant coordinator at my hospital. She wants me to come down for a full re-evaluation and work-up. She feels it would be to my advantage to put me on the “needs” list for livers. The “needs list” allocates livers that are less than prime to people…
I hope those know-it-alls don’t make learning latin even less fun :o)~
And if I don’t actually see a car, then it can be anything I want it to be.
Remind the know-it-alls that the Latin language, and its pronunciation, evolved, so there is no one "proper" method. Furthermore, while we have some ideas how it was spoken in the Classical period, we have no definitive answers. All any of us can do is adopt the best guess. As the good folks at UPenn say, "The so-called Roman Pronunciation of Latin aims to represent approximately the pronunciation of classical times." If you want to see how they do it, try http://ccat.sas.upenn.edu/jod/AG/allgre.8.html.
I think I’d have rather had your teacher than the first one I had, a Jesuit whose only goal seemed to be to make his students cry. He was a humiliation-teaches-best kind of guy. 😛 Not that singing mnemonic songs isn’t humiliating. Hmmm. Maybe they’d both suck.
Hope class gets better. 🙂
your latin class sounds like a scene out of waiting for guffman. lol.
and, as luck would have it…slithers behind nearest large tree branch…the boy and i bought two wicker papasans last night. sadly, when we got them to the apartment, we found that they’d given us the wrong cushion for mine. now we have to go all the way back and get the right one.
The egg is cracking!!!!!!

Doggone you Sal!
More tests?
It sounds like class is fun.
The couple sound obnoxious and rude.
You’ve still got me singing

re the mirror project site: it’s absolutely fascinating seeing all the different and unique ways people have taken self-portraits
if you’d like to submit your own one, they pretty much accept all submissions so long as they fit within size requirement

Vini vidi vici. Or something.
Both dogs are doing alright… Hooray!! What a nasty week we had last week but now everything seems better. I think the Dachshund had some problems with her anal glands yesterday (she’s been to vet because of them before), but my mum emptied them. It seemed painful for her, though. I’m thinking they didn’t empty themselves last week because she didn’t poop. LOL I know, a bit too much info.
And dammit, I took the past life test too! AND the doughnut test!
There is always "one" in any class, you are lucky, you have two know-it-alls in your Latin class (which sounds like it is going to be hard!). Feel sorry for the teacher having students that undermine him behind his back.

Nya nya, I’m a glazed doughnut and you’re just a jelly doughnut! Bwahaa!

The whizbang people hit my website 515 times this week!! Good lord!!!
LOL!
It’s good to know I’m appreciated =)
Those tests are dangerous…I know!
Do you think you could translate something for me into latin if I asked really nice like?
I thought you already knew what you were in a past life, or are sherpas not interesting enough for you?
