Hello all,

I’ve been posting about this for quite some time. The nominations for the Advisory Board are posted.

I am looking for the support of you, my readers, the readers of your journal and as many people we can link to from there. But of course, only if you think I’m the candidate to do the job.

My platform and your chance to support me can be found here:

I ask that you take a moment, read my post, and post a comment (at the link, not here) of support:
Preferably, “I support this nomination”

And more importantly, I ask you to re-post the link above and a similar message in your journals and encourage your readers to do the same. Regardless of the overlap that you think our readership may have.

Thank you very much for any and all support.

Hiking with the family today. Managed to make my knee painfully unhappy with me.

I’m a regular user of EA’s online game site. Pogo

This evening I received an error message. So I wrote a VERY long post to their support division. And internally… I really don’t think I’m going to let this one lie… especially if I get crapped on by some outsourced tech support pre-fashioned script.

I invite you to read the rather biting letter. But I really don’t think most of my readers are that interested.

Hello readers.

Tomorrow is the nominations for the LiveJournal Advisory Board. I ask that you keep an eye on my journal tomorrow and be willing to post to your journals and ask your readers to do the same.

I think I have a very strong background to represent users well on the board and your support is really what is needed.

As always… (relevant) questions are welcomed.

So, Aiden is 20 months old today. That’s 1 2/3 yrs. Wow..

19 months was very difficult. It’s causing a bit of a shakeup in my world and the cleanup is underway.

This month Aiden spent the good portion of a day in daycare. (6 hrs) This was very difficult on me even though I don’t spend that time with him anyway due to work. The upside is that it worked out very well for all concerned. shimmeringjemmy had a day of personal work, recuperation, and gardening. (Oh, happy Cancer)

Aiden is undeniably a toddler. An independent and “WILLFUL” personality has emerged. He is more and more amazingly interactive. Yesterday, when we got home after work I retrieved the garbage pails from the curb while H & a unloaded from the car. About halfway down the driveway I bent down and opened my arms for a hug. Aiden tore into a (toddler) sprint and jumped up into my arms. It was beyond adorable.

The word, “Hi” is his mainstay. I’m pretty sure he knows what it means. Though everything is a greeting to him. Even getting attention. I think he equates it to also mean, “Excuse me.” With “Hi” has also come waving. He definitely has different hand motions for “hi” and “bye”… And whenever we say, “Say ‘bye-bye'” he does is farewell wave.
