Tuesday, May 13, 2003 ( 5/13/2003 04:48:00 PM ) Jeanne Few minutes of web fame at the picket we went to the other day. The second pic from the top is me and Sofia at the picket for Illinois House Bill 211, which would require insurance companies to cover birth control. The local Independent Media Center snapped it and the rest of their site is lovely as well. I'm dog tired today. Worked at Planned Parenthood, met with my advisor at GSLIS came home to make an oriental noodle dish for Sofia's daycare potluck tonight and will leave for said event in a few minutes. I did manage to stop by our local movie place and pick up a "chick" flick, Personal Velocity, which I hope to see tonight. It has to be back tommorow by nine. Parker Posey is in the film and it won the grand jury prize at Sundance so I've got high hopes. # Monday, May 12, 2003 ( 5/12/2003 09:48:00 AM ) Jeanne Watched White Teeth last night on PBS. I know I'm the only person in the universe who didn't like this book, at least it seems that way, so the fact that I enjoyed this Masterpiece Theater version more than the book didn't come as any surprise. Had a nice Mother's Day with our traditional breakfast in bed and a day of not lifting a finger for mundane tasks like cooking and cleaning. Oh and the kids both made me a card. I'm having dreams of learning to rag hook "rugs" after I got a book at the library, Beautiful Ragwork. I don't know that I will be doing rugs, but maybe smaller decorative items. I hate the word decorative, because I don't even decorate my house per se, or at least in that Martha Stewart coordinating kind of way. We've got a few things we like in the house like our wooden Indonesian goddess, the stained glass window I lucked into when I moved into a warehouse studio in California and the people who were leaving didn't want it, and a reproduction of Duhrer's rhinocerous that I got Juan for a Ph.D. gift. I'm actually going to go write about some books I've been reading on my book blog, which I've been neglecting. # |
