Time space continuums and just not enough time in the day

We watched the new Star Trek movie last night, and it was so fun! Loved it! Very retro, very good work establishing all of the ties to the old story line. Highly entertaining and enjoyable!

As I was watching it I realized I was also trying to figure out how,  at this point in time, I might be able to miraculously tap into that whole 'time folds and stretches and it's possible (hello, Mr. Spock) to be in more than one place at a time in time'...concept.

Wouldn't that be cool?

Or am I just sucking at the whole life balance pursuit right now?

That may be the case. I'm looking at what needs to happen before this week can end, (500 real work deadlines to meet, none of which can be dropped or heads will roll...ok, my head will roll). Then entertaining Saturday night. Then tons of prep/nesting before Daughter has her surgery next week. I'll be trying to get as much done as possible to ensure she's guaranteed healthy, yummy snacks while she recovers, that the house is clean and comfy, that the freezer is stocked with fast, nutritious meal stuff, that any Thanksgiving prep work is done that can be done. And so on.

I'm whining. I'll stop.

But I really, really could use a mini me right now. An S2. A fiercely organized, very focused ever-energetic slightly smaller (ok a lot smaller) version of moi to pick up the pieces and guarantee nobody is let down or disappointed by me. Ever.

Wouldn't that be cool?

Schnazzed up Desert Magnolia..again, thanks to LP the graphics guru!

Happy Thursday, everyone! Nope, it's not quite Spring yet, but sometimes a girl's gotta get a new 'do. Or in this case this girl's gotta get a new blog header. You know what I mean. Thank you LP! You rock. I love the artistic approach..it's soft but nice and still says, 'Enter here at your own risk, for opinions of a strong nature are sure to be expressed.' That's how I see it, anyway.

What do you wear in Austin in October??

It's suppose to be in the 80's during the day, and only in the 70's at night. It's humid. I'm not sure what to pack. For once I'm attending a conference instead of having a booth at the tradeshow and networking that way. It's going to be good...to be in the classroom, listening to what people are caring about now. I look forward to it. But I'm spending way too much time worrying about whether jeans are too hot, capris are too cliche, clogs are passe, should I just go with a theme and be done with it, and all that crap. Seriously, you'd think I have better things to waste mental energy on, right? Apparently not so much.

Stormy Tuesday, with a chance of showers too....

The emotions, to say they're wildly fluctuating would be an exaggeration, but they are certainly not balanced and I am so not centered and I'm finding it really hard to maintain my train of thought and I'm now even more worried about my son moving to Abu Dhabi now that they're further limiting Blackberry communications, and my daughter has a stomach bug. But other than that, everything's cool in my world. Son heads to Abu Dhabi this Saturday, early evening my time. Daughter heads to Providence, RI, this Saturday, before lunch. Hubby just informed me we're committed to a dinner at his department head's house Saturday night for a 'casual evening with the new headmaster and his wife.' Are you kidding me? WTF? Of all the things I want to be doing Saturday night, I'm pretty sure schmoozing with the new guy (hub's boss for hell sake) is NOT on the list. My list looks more like this: Take a nap after first wave of absolute searingly...
