Best Quote of the Day
Don't think for a second that funny quotations are grown only at PHC. My family and work environment furnish me with constant chuckles. This was far and away the best of today's gleanings...
"My computer won't give me Artaxerxes! I'm miffed." - Laura, coworker and friend since we were both in Tapestry Y2 together back in high school.
Laura will be a Sophomore at Hillsdale this fall--small world, ain't it?--and is my polar opposite. I'm blonde; she's brunette. I have blue eyes; hers are dark hazel. I'm auditory all the way, but Laura is overwhelmingly visual. Laura is detail-oriented and can memorize anything and retain it forever. She thinks in matrixes. I prefer to think in connections, or relations, and if I remember a detail it's only because I thought it was cool when I first learned it (for example, the fact that Lewis stole his Dufflepuds from Augustine's City of God).
We share a common love for history, literature, and writing. We also experienced 3 years in the high school Tapestry trenches together, which is (I know you won't believe me, but it's true) more work and harder than PHC. Her Classical Comparison paper--Senior year Tapestry project--was 70 pages long, which should give you an idea of what she can do with the written word. Laura, if I had a cap, it would be off to you. Thanks for being a loyal and loving friend for the past seven years. I'm so glad to be working together again! Long live the Victoria Project. ;-)
Oh, minor note. Do any of my PHC friends who may be reading know how to send an ASE while at home? My remote address book doesn't have the option, and I am reduced to making Book of Kells II announcements on the student website, which you should probably read if you're curious about that project.

Anonymous since I am not at my home computer (this is Lisa)...
you send an ASE by emailing AllStudents@students.phc.edu, which you can do from the webaccess Internet. Being offcampus, I do a lot of my emailing from home so have kind of gotten used to it :).
And... you are like the blog queen! Was reading over your entries earlier today... wow... I don't know that any of us can keep up, but it makes very fun reading :).
All right, Jonathan... I guess I'll have to forgive you. :-P
Lisa, I blog because I have to somehow verbalize the thoughts that roll around in my head all the time. Verbalization, whether out lound or in writing, is how I process information, and my family just doesn't have as much time to listen to me as all my single friends at school do. They are amazingly generous to me and want to know what I'm thinking about, but the time just isn't always there. So I blog instead, and hope that it isn't too boring. Don't feel like you have to read it all, please! <:0)
Yes. You have a tremendously voluble blog! I missed it over the weekend, and you have pages and pages to read. You must be a bit bored in the evenings. ;)
Not bored, just processing. I process by writing and talking. :)
