Well, since you all thought the Easter picture was so cute,
I thought I'd give you one more--me when I was four.

I think we're heading for CUTE overload here, Robyn.
I'll have to start using かわいい instead, which you very definitely are.

Oh, you are a cutie.

Dive, this looks like jibberish in the comment box, but in the e-mail version of your comment, it appears to Japanese. ??
dive said…
Damn! I often comment to perople in Japanese. Do you mean that the characters don't come out, or is it just that you cannot read them?
(The first is a squiggly thing with a dash; the second has a hook thing on the right hand side; the third and fourth are two slightly bendy lines).
If they look different to this, please let me know and I'll stop doing it. They look fine on all my computers.
Also, are the characters on my old Japanese posts readable or just somputer rubbish? I'm worried now …
The word is "kawaii" by the way ("cute" in Japanese).

Dive, when I look at this while using my laptop, the Japanese is just double dashes, but it comes through on emails (I get email allerts with comments. Later I'll check it on the Mac and see if it works better. My Mac is loaded with fonts.
Scout said…
Dive, on my MAC, your Japanese characters translate into question marks. sorry.
speaking of Macs... robyn, how do you like it - do you have an ibook?
Scout said…
Hey Rich. I have a big G5 with a giant monitor and I don't know how many gig of ram for all of my graphics work. I would love an iBook, but my laptop is a peuny little pc that I inherited from my daughter when she graduated to something better. It serves it's purpose.

Are you thinking about an iBook?

Right Brain Dominant

I am reading A Whole New Mind: Why Right-Brainers Will Rule the Future , by Daniel H. Pink. I wouldn't have chosen this book had I been book hunting because I lean toward fiction—it was a gift from someone who, like me, is right-brain dominate. I haven't gotten very far, just far enough to learn that in Hippocrates' day, the left side of the brain was considered the true source of thought, the thing that separated us from the animals and made us human. It was the source of reason and logic. The right side was considered a useless left over, a parasite. Now we know that both sides of our brains are equally important and equally involved in our daily thoughts and functions. But some of us do seem to be governed by one side more strongly than the other. Me, sometimes I think the left side of my brain has completely atrophied, that the right side governs everything. But I am learning that I don't give that other side enough credit, that logical mathy side. As I read on ab...

Ish People

Tell an Ish person to show up around 9 a.m., and you'll see them somewhere around 9 a.m. Tell them to show up at 9ish, and you'll see them anywhere from 9:05 to 9:20. You have given them license to dilly dally, and who wouldn't take advantage of that? The other night at the big shindig dinner party, one of the drummers said the rehearsal the next morning would begin at 9ish. "I am an ish person," he says. Immediately the clanker goes off in my head--oh, good, I thought. I can deliver my daughter a little late. No Ish person is early, so if you say 9ish, that does not mean give or take 5, 10, 15 minutes. It's exclusively a taking phrase. Take an extra 10 minutes to drink your cup of coffee. We won't mind. We're Ish people. Sunday's rehearsal started at 2:00. Because it was conducted by the same people who conducted the Saturday rehearsal, my understanding was 2-ISH. My daughter is worse than I am about taking liberties with Ish time frames, so she d...

Happy Birthday To...

Pope Leo IX (the Pope) JCF Bach (German composer) Jane Russell (of Gentlemen Prefer Blonds fame) Daniel Carter Beard (founder of the Boy Scouts of America) Jean-Paul Sartre (French philosopher) Maureen Stapleton (Academy Award winning actress) Mariette Hartley (who?) Prince William of Wales (the prince) but most importantly, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 45 years ago today, I was born in Alabama in a small town on the banks of the Tennessee River. Yesterday, someone asked me if my family has any birthday traditions. The answer is no. My family never cared very much, but I do remember a few birthday highlights. I was given a birthday party in the back yard when I was ten years old. Two years later, my sister got married on my birthday, so I was just a bit overlooked, although I did get a stuffed animal--it was a white Yorkshire terrier with an AM radio in its stomach. When I turned 20, a different sister took me to an outdoor performance of Dvorak's New World Sympho...
