Maya and Me: Why attention to detail is important
I woke up late this morning. I had a 1030 appointment in Winston, and I woke up at 845. (Not ONE WORD about laziness – I worked and then had homework after I got home, thankyouverymuch!) As I blazed my way through the pages of the paper (like Esbee, I read the dead tree version as I breakfast) one thing attracted my attention in The Week Ahead section of the Local News section. I looked at the clock, squealed and grabbed my camera and things, getting to my appointment only five minutes late. At the end of my appointment, I celebrated joyously – I’d gotten done just in time to haul myself to Salem College, park at the edge of the campus, and walk the half-mile to Corpening Plaza. In the cold and rain.
The closer I got to the square, the more I realized that things just.weren’t.right. Where is the teeming sea of humanity? Balloons? Dancers? Wait…what day is today?
I called My Sainted Mama and asked her to read the blurb to me again. As she read it, she started laughing and well…it took a while for her to regain control of herself. And then I sloooowly made my way back to school, picked up my registration card for next semester, and went home.
Birthday Celebration

No Child Left Behind, indeed.
Frustrations abundant, and promises forgotten.
He signed an acknowledgement of paternity at birth.
His name is on the birth certificate.
The child is his father remade, in stature and build (and temperment).
Even though he has signed and acknowledged, he still has the legal right to request DNA testing.
A court date had been scheduled in December 2007, before Christmas, in another state. Obviously I was not able to attend this hearing. I have had no further information from this other state – I don’t know if it was continued, if he requested said DNA testing, what-have-you.
When we were discussing The End of our relationship, he said he would probably stay out of The Child’s life until the age of five. At that point (when The Child is fully capable of expressing needs and wants) he would be interested in becoming a part of The Child’s life.
The Child will be seven at the end of this month.

Boycotts need to evolve to become effective again. Our issues are too numerous, the companies play a shell game with subsidiaries, and CEOs have no problem with paying themselves millions of dollars in bonuses while closing factories and moving productio
