pameladlloyd: Alya, an original character by Ian L. Powell (Kitty Call Out)
Just dropping by to say hi and share this thought with you:

Just one more reason we should be kind to those around us, no matter how small, weak, or unimportant they may seem.


But, while I'm here, I just can't resist bringing you up-to-date on the highlights of what's been going on in my life.

My schedule recently has been very full. I'm enjoying my work at IBM (well, actually, at home, most days). I'm part of a great international team and I'm getting the chance to learn new technical, geeky stuff, which is a blast. In addition to the new skills I'm picking up on the job, CTG (my direct employer) offers a great selection of online training courses, which I've been taking advantage of.

I've continued to tutor twice a week in the evenings at the Pima Community College Learning Center, although I won't be able to do so over the summer, as they don't offer evening hours for the summer sessions. I love working with students, so I'm going to miss even my short visits, but at the same time it will be good to have those evenings back.

Echoed manually from Flying?.

My husband was lying in bed reading when he happened to notice that a couple of feathers had escaped his pillow. He picked them up, one in each hand, and started flapping his arms like crazy.

My comment: "Those aren't flight feathers, they're down. You can't fly up with down."

From Quotes of the Day:

A good many young writers make the mistake of enclosing a stamped, self-addressed envelope, big enough for the manuscript to come back in. This is too much of a temptation to the editor.

Ring Lardner (1885 - 1933), "How to Write Short Stories"
