   when I was 15 we moved from Kansas to Chicago - I got out of there as soon as I could!  but now I realize that it was really a good place and I was just a stubborn little girl.  However, since my parents were so tired of parenting it all worked out great for all of us when I left and went out to explore the world!  Where did you grow up Hmr?

            because I happen to know a guy who does research in Antarctica on penguins and he would know how you could maybe get on a ship there as a volunteer - maybe get expenses paid for part of your trip that way and learn about the penguins and seals etc there.  He was in that movie that Werner Herzog made about Antarctica - if you're interested, I will try to find out for you more info.  If you want, look him up online - David Ainley is his name and he has a book called Penguinessence!

    Hmr - The one place really on my "bucket list" currently is Greece.  I suppose is the theatre geek in me, but I have a need to see where it all began.  (Dream vacation would be a mediteranean cruise with lots of time to relax and then a whirlwind trip around Greece.)
    
    Mega - That Gaugin trip sounds amazing.  Give me about 18 years until the kids get out of the house, and I'm there with ya'! HaHa.
    
    Denno - How's school?  Got my app and my rec's in... just waiting on my transcript (and a lot of work on financial aid!)
    
    Everyone else - Howdy!  Not sure when I'll be back around today, but I am SO glad to be home.  (Got snowed in at work for 2 days... )

          Ok.  Having sort of a lazy day.  We were all supposed to go to sis-in-laws for Superbowl, but my little guy is sick (again - he's highly prone to respiratory infections and ear infections, so its always something.)  He's doing better, but not well enough to go out.  So, my husband's going to take our other son, but the 17mo old and I are just going to hang at home.

    @ Stevie- No, nothing serious.  He's running a fever with a nasty cough and runny nose.  Pretty typical kid stuff.  He has ear tubes, so they drain whenever he's got an ear infection, which we are seeing too (sorry if that's too graphic).  But, the drainage is actually good... before the tubes, his ears would get so plugged up that the infection wouldn't go away, and he'd be in serious discomfort.  Now, we just see it, give him some ear drops for a few days, and he's a much happier camper.

             HaHa.   I was just messing around, and the "poo-poo head" struck me as funny at the moment.  (I have a whole collection of preschool oriented slurs if anyone wants to see them sometime... perhaps a new hub. ) 
             
             And, actually, I do like your avatar.  A bit of a departure, and an homage to the split personalities I think most of us have deep (or not so deep) inside.
             
             As for bashing, I can be quite nasty if I choose to, but I learned a long time ago that life is too short for that nonsense.  So, I try to stay clear.  Mess with my family and you'll get an earful, otherwise, its "Live and Let Live" for this girl.
