Courting’s been nominated for a Koufax award, best writing, blog. I put the reasons why Savannah 3, our computer, Savannah 2, our laptop, and Toto our imaginary dog–but never tell him that–think we deserve our nomination. Tried to talk them out of it–but never fight two Savannah’s and a Toto!
Was just leaving a comment at Josh’s site about my progressive Jewish sleep away camp where all we had to do was–nothing, basically, but have sleep outs–and make the camp site, have socials, once a week have a big discussion about current events–act out a skit comparing Maimonides, Moses, and Martin Luther King Jr, but that was all for the week.
Yes I went to a camp where nothing reigned. Don’t think Larry David went there. Howard Stern did; he still talks about it.Â
He was on my life long friends Western trip, where we camped out to the Grand Canyon and back, met a lot of great people, slept in a jail–really, when our tents were blown over by massive winds, stayed in a farm in Kansas, and still managed to do nothing very well. If you can name this camp, leave a comment. If you can name the division I went to–my sister doesn’t count–please explain how you knew it.
Just realized that I have had life long experience in doing nothing well with a social conscience tinge.
Found this at Ally’s. Not usually into tests, It can be found behind the “tests” link, but this seems interesting. It’s a Johari window personality thingie. There’s a darker one, but I thought I would begin by being slightly gentle about myself.
Some of you should feel obligated to do this.
Thanks Ally, this was a great find; I think.
Will be leaving it up for several days as I really really want your input!!!!!!!!! If you haven’t read my dad’s feeling upon adopting me–it’s two posts down
It’s really absorbing, I keep going back and checking mine.
Your decluttering, plus , has almost (almost) got me inspired to tag my own posts …
Bugger, sorry, really boshed that up … my blog-mate Rhys has generated a tag generator, here: http://www.gospelrhys.co.uk/2006/01/technorati-tag-editor.html
which has contributed to me *almost* being motivated to tag my own posts 🙂
Hmmm… how on earth do you find this stuff ? I find myself almost staying away from that test thing for fear that it will take over the rest of my day.
I know, I’m slow, but did you create your own Johari Window too? I tried to click on it to contribute but didn’t see anything. This is going to be my tell it to me Tuesday this week actually.
Oh and where do we go to vote for you?
love ya pia… and will vote once voting starts… took your test for you… hope you like my answers! 🙂
