guess what I'm watching?

marcel the shell with shoes on.
he is really rather adorable I think.

he hang glides on a dorito for adventure.

librarian chic

R.E.A. (check out that cleverly disguised name!) started laughing today when he saw me, and he told me that it was because my outfit was very 'me'. he continued to add that I looked like a librarian. I'm taking it as a compliment. (I think that it was? maybe?)

I'm glad that my sense of style can be equated to that of a librarian. LEVEL UP! my dreams of being a childrens librarian are that much closer to being achieved.

I'll be recommending my favorite books to kids and having story time and doing craft projects and playing peek-a-boo between the shelves before you know it. as soon as I learn my alphabet I'm going to be totally ready for the rest of my life.

QUESTION

does my enjoyment of running (especially hard workouts and long runs) make me a strong and dedicated runner, or a masochist?

just a question for all of you. it has been bouncing around in my head for the past few days and I want to hear your answers.

is it worth more than 1000 words?

oh no not again. I'm so indecisive and so I think that I'll wish on spare change and fountains. started a couple of weeks into summer vacation, and have been folding them while I watch tv. at least I got it done before the school year started? (t minus two days now)

they're really rather small- 1/16th of a regularly sized piece of origami paper. (because I don't want to have to deal with the storage of 1000 full sized paper cranes. you understand- don't you?)

this is my second time making 1000 paper cranes with this paper- it's all left over from the origami page-a-day calendar that my parents gave me in 2006. I'll use it up eventually. (I hope.)

best wishes to all of you for the academic year- and for cross country season- and for autumn- and for the year- and for life. :)
