EXCELlent....

It has been a busy week.

Somehow I have found my way into taking not one but two MS Office classes. One in Word and the other in Excel. And, getting my ducks in a row has been something of a challenge. And an education. The campus at Trade Tech community college feels like a very serious place where there is no room for frills. No public art. No fountains. No trendy cafes. The students are serious...or not. I found the people working in admissions and the cashier, really helpful and friendly. Now if can get my copy of Office 2003, stop gasping having to pay a hundred bucks each for my texts...and if I fix a glitch at my class sign up-----I will be ready to put in the hours a week to become some what competent at what ever it is I am supposed to be doing.

Toastmasters. I liked it. I shall return.

Have gotten a little involved in the doings regarding this scandal of the Motion Picture Country Home dumping their most profoundly vulnerable residents. I don't get shocked, but this one was beyond appalling, and all the jerks behind this awful, awful move was breathtaking in its horribleness. WHAT THE HELL ARE THESE PEOPLE THINKING?

(provided pithy lines for their signage at demonstration before the Oscars. I was too tuckered out to go into Bev Hills. I usually need hours of psyching myself to go anywhere west of Highland.)

The future isn't looking too bleak today. Just pale and murky.
