The gods must be freezing...
-20 today.
All the schools were closed, except for BYU-Idaho.
What the crap?

Too $@%* COLD
Today as I walked to school it was -13 degrees.
The vapor from my breath froze my hair, as in it turned completely white.
At noon it was up to +11. What a relief!
I've promised myself that if the mercury goes above the mid 20's tomorrow i'm throwing a luau.
Better yet--I'll fly to Hawaii.
UGH!

So embarrassed..
I fell in the shower today...a thing I've never done before--
I hit my head, and now I have a mild concussion.
How lame!
All is well now, the dizziness is gone, but i'm still sore.
Now I get to explain to my teachers why I wasn't at school today.
*sigh*
5 points to anyone who can come up with a better-- less embarrassing story to tell.

Positively besotted with Kershisnik
Dancing on a Very Small Island
Mother and Child
Girl Reading Very Small Book
The Measuring
I also love his Nativity painting--it makes me cry. It's just so powerful to see in person... but when I tried to take a picture of it at the BYU exhibit, I got yelled at. ( Ironically, it was my favorite piece in the whole show, and the only one they wouldn't let me snap!) Luckily Dad bought a poster of it in the museum store.
Something about his approach, it's anitiquated, and familiar--like moments from childhood. It's also honest and awkward..I LOVE it.

I'm a DOCENT!
Just for our University gallery--but i'm so excited. I get to give tours to 80+students on Thursdays throughout the semester! Also--i'll be available for the other elementary students to come through for a tour.
This will be such good experience!
Maybe i'll go be a docent at the MOMA---like this woman that I shadowed for an afternoon.
NO TIME TO PLAY--here's the rest of my classes with skimpy word discriptions:
GRAPHIC DESIGN: Intimidating, hardcore, outofthebox (finally!)
ADVANCED CERAMICS: Muscles, form vs. function, 9 different kilns.
EDUCATIONAL PSYCH: Refreshing, (thank you lord!) Insightful, 8 texts to read by April
ART METHODS 1: Paperwork, Paperwork, Observation of classrooms
ART METHODS 2: Lesson plans, forming curriculum, Nightmare stories---designed to help prepare us...
ART SEMINAR: Lectures, Inspirational, too many options...want to do it all!
****************************
I love the iTunes store---
Today I bought music from "The Mission", "Chocolat", and Regina Spektor. Mmmm!
****************************
Have to run---I'm teaching the lesson in Relief Society tomorrow morning!

It'll be a while...
until my feet are back on that shore again...
It's snowy and cold.
I hate Idaho in January.
I'd rather be in Maine, in August....
Sitting around the kitchen table with Mom---with flowers in her hair.
*sigh*
In other news:
I'm still learning to say, "what'd ya bring me?"
