First Anniversary

Saturday, December 20, 2003  

Today is the first anniversary of this weblog. A year ago I was planning to leave for Norway. Tomorrow we leave for Virginia to spend the holidays with my family. A lot has happened over the past year, but this is probably my favorite post. I am working on new artist's books, I have a couple of performances coming up, academic life progresses, the cyborg child grows at an amazing pace (and is now reading!), I am still married to a fabulous Norwegian, all in all life is pretty damn good. I must get back to packing and preparing for the road trip...

I get a different color everytime I do this quiz:

you are deeppink
#FF1493

Your dominant hues are red and magenta. You love doing your own thing and going on your own adventures, but there are close friends you know you just can't leave behind. You can influence others on days when you're patient, but most times you just want to go out, have fun, and do your own thing.

Your saturation level is high - you get into life and have a strong personality. Everyone you meet will either love you or hate you - either way, your goal is to get them to change the world with you. You are very hard working and don't have much patience for people without your initiative.

Your outlook on life is very bright. You are sunny and optimistic about life and others find it very encouraging, but remember to tone it down if you sense irritation.

My new baby. I haven't had time to load her up and test her out, but as soon as finals are over this week, that is exactly what I will do... she's a beauty. What should I name her?
