Not one, but TWO North Carolina WordCamps

First up is the RDU WordCamp on Oct 4.

And then Charlotte WordCamp on Nov 15th.

Rumor has it that we may just be the first state to ever have had two wordcamps like this. I don’t know if I’ll be able to make the RDU one since it’s so close to ConvergeSouth [...]

BlogHer ‘08 is coming to Greensboro – Saturday Oct 18

The agenda has been posted here and my favorite Tiny Superhero CaraMichele is going to be talking about changing our world.

Are you coming? Let me know in the comments please

My own First Day of School

This happened Thursday – I was too cussed tired last night and hit “save” instead of “publish”

The day dawned gray and dreary. For some psychotic reason, I decided that TODAY would be the day that I pull through the loop and boot the boys out of the van – dropping them off at the front [...]

On campus an hour early.

I forgot my camera. I really wanted to capture that glassy-eyed bleary look that a freshman (or ten) are sporting this morning.

Coffee – it does a mama good. Just in case you were wondering.

There was a bit of an unofficial day yesterday – I came to get my books and ended up helping a [...]

I thought this lovely monster was a leaf hanging from a spiderweb. Then it moved. I may have screamed like a little girl when it did.

Update: I’m straight now.

Does anything make a stylist more happy than hearing the words “Go crazy!”

Don’t worry – I won’t stay straight for long though. It’s just…not natural.

*blinks innocently*

I’m depressed. You know what that means, right?

I’m going this afternoon to get my hair done. No, it’s not a walk-in – I’d scheduled this appointment weeks ago. Wonder what Alannah would say if I came home with purple hair….

Wonder what else I can change with all this time on my hands????

Stay tuned….

I was up late last night after work making sure that bags were packed and clothes were out. It took me an obscene amount of time to pick out the “right” outfits for their First Day of School. (Yes, there was weeping.)

At the breakfast table, the boys decided they wanted to bring their [...]

I’ve tried and tried and I can’t wrap my brain around it.

My boys will be going to school tomorrow. TOMORROW. Although The Fail Whale is currently floating around my inability to locate 4 (ea) boxes of 16 Crayola Crayons. There have been panic attacks, entirely too many shopping trips, and overstimulation in the store.

In the mail today: the county association’s “welcome to homeschooling/how to” packet.

Addressed to My Sainted Mama.
