My topiary hippos are now at the Drinker Infohub, which is nice.

Yesterday I had school - children's first day back after the holiday, although the adults were in on Tuesday (not me, though). Jonas came in with a T-shirt request so I made 40 transfers of a simple logo-school name- "staff" design I made in a few minutes. He had a piece of glitter stuck to his face and my brain wouldn't acknowledge it although my eyes had difficulty not staring at it. If I knew him better I'd just say, "You've got glitter on your face," but I don't. My art room was always a glitter-free zone and the children knew better than to EVER think they would have glitter. That stuff is diabolical and actually has zero use in any art project I ever wanted to do. Plus they could glitter away with their teachers for holiday projects.

I had come in at about 10:45 to work with Alan - he's the kid who was told last time that he had one more change then he would be out. Well, bye bye. I told Alex that perhaps he wanted to GET in, but didn't want to BE in. Then I had Sabra and Cheyenne who had a half-finished comic strip to finish (I'd put their characters in a few frames to give them the idea). After that I went into fifth and gave them a short lecture outlining the Big Picture, Montrose had them fill out forms, and we dived into the virtual world and got a lot accomplished.

I stayed afterwards to talk with Alina - asking if the grid increments could be altered, and if the children could access the more detailed coordinates that we get from the world features section of the UI. She didn't know about the grid but thought the children could access the same thing as us - I'll have to check that out.

I had jin shin today and was totally wiped out from yesterday+jin shin, so kept falling asleep all day. They tried to deliver my mouse but I wasn't here - what the Hell - can't they just leave it, or leave a form for me to sign so they CAN leave it?

Enjah sent me a funny souvenir tiny cup and saucer-ish sort of thing from DC that is imprinted I love DC or something. I laughed for about a minute. Her computer is supposed to be ready on Saturday. Eek - she must be climbing the walls by now. She did tell me she's working on a painting, though, so perhaps not.
