“It must be a Thursday… October 25, 2007

Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Universe
Actually, today is not so bad. I just sent out my gazillion emails to all of the observers I am supporting this next Chandra Observing Cycle. Whew, it is tough because some observers have 60+ observations associated with their program and I need to put a link to each observation in the emails. Instead of hitting the poor people with one for each observation, I tend to give them one email with all of the links in them.
Anywho, my week of single mom is almost done. Jay returns from Huntsville, Alabama where the 8 years of Chandra Science Meeting is ending. Good for me because I am about fried. The girls have actually been really helpful this week. Last night, Luna awoke at 1:30am and I brought her in bed with me. She spent the night grinding her teeth. It really upsets me that the girls get so stressed so young. What could be so hard in her life that she is grinding her teeth? Really? Maybe it is because mommy made her clean most of the blue dye out of her hair (Soleil kept telling everyone at the Halloween party last night that I had tie-died Luna’s hair. The thought of tie-dying hair just gave me giggles all of the time…). Maybe because mommy laughed and sighed when I saw that she spent nap-time at daycare coloring her tights purple. And that the marker had bleed through causing her legs to turn purple…. The teacher was mortified because she thought Luna was coloring a picture, not her legs! I told her not to worry, it will wash out. If not, eh we have a new design on tights!
I think I am really settling into the new routine of life. I am getting used to parties and school and searching backpacks… I found a book report from Soleil yesterday
"Daniel had 2 dolars. He went shoping. He bot a kite." Not bad, my love, not bad at all
I hope to do Fiction Friday this week. I really need to release something, I just don’t know what! 
BTW- a great comet showed up yesterday. Check out spaceweather.com to see more info!
