Inside: Photos of eyeballs, bees, eyeballs, blue hands, and eyeballs. Also inside: Thoughts I want you to read and to live by and, when especially inspired, to set to opera. Also inside: my fight against vegetable tyranny. Just a little something I do so you don’t have to. You're welcome. Come on in and get your jibber jabber on!

5 or 20?

A school assignment my oldest daughter received yesterday. Take an index card and write the name of a family member on one side. On the other side, briefly describe that person with enough detail that one could read the description and accurately guess who you are describing. Do this for all the members of the family. Here's what she wrote. Pretty accurate, if you ask me.

"This person is kind and a good reader, and is great at piano. She has lots of stuffed animals and is going into a new girl scout troop.

This person is funny and cute, sometimes demanding. She likes to go first. This person's cheeks never stop.

This person is tall, crazy and nice, loving, but is sometimes a worry bug.

This person likes candy and princes and princesses, laughs a lot. This person makes friends quickly and is sweet.

This person is silly, good at math, a good cook, and pretty and generous, not to mention giving. This person is great."

After the comment about being a worry bug, she failed to mention what an incredible robot dance this tall person does.

My robot dance is, frankly, mediocre. I appreciate the robot more than I become the robot. Robots and anxiety don't go together well.
