Meet the Roomates. ok. New roomie wants in on the blog world. She's a my-spacer trying to be nice to the bloggers. So everybody, this is Isabelle. Isabelle, this is everybody. She's got an upstairs room. A nanny and she is getting her master's in teaching. Ok. all the roomies but one are in. so. taking advantage of the opportunity . . . I'd like to introduce you to Gloria. She's a rodeo queen. No really. Ok fine, she came in second place or something. Next year she's going to try again. But she's a chef. Big huge hotel downtown. But I can't tell you where, because she can't give you free food anyway. Gloria has a downstairs room with me. Hers has a rock in it. Our bathroom has an apron tacked across the window. I'll show you some time. This here be Liz. Last names are being withheld in order to protect people and make you think that they're innocent. Liz is mysterious. She's an artist, so maybe it's best that we protect her image. Y...

Did you notice the pink? Ah but how could you not. Yes. This is still Heidi's blog, but it has changed to meet the demands of the public. This is SPECIAL FOR SPARROW!!! HI SPARROW! Do you like the PINK PINK PINK? Three year olds can't necessarily read words, but they can read pink. For the rest, it won't last long. I just had to try to win the little girl's heart so that when she see's me at Christmas she thinks pink and she just loves loves loves me. I don't know if the princess in pink is a good book. I'm not promoting it, I'm just including it because it's got a tiara on it. Remember, Sparrow can't read words, just pink. Now for the rest of my readers . . . The crunch of snow underneath my feet transported me to another place. You know those moments when your mind goes somewhere and you think of weird things? While I walked home from dinner all the ice and snow in the moonlight made me think of Russia. And I thought, "I could be anywhere...

November 18th. The week heading into American Thanksgiving. I am going to keep my eyes peeled, because apparently Christmas pops up immediately after thanksgiving and I want to experience it. Lots of walks and looking around at houses. America, America. Well, I have something special to share with you. Something unique to this city perhaps. I am not sure. Perhaps unique to cities with a whole lot of leafy trees. What are those called? Deciduous or Carnivorous - I can never remember. Heh heh. Anyway. I awoke yesturday morning to the strangest thing. Piles of leaves at every intersection in the suburbs. Like huge piles. My roomate was tempted to just drive her car straight into it. I wish she would have. We could have video'd it and won huge prizes on stupid videos.com. Oh well. our 15 seconds of fame will have to be for something else. Too bad. the funny thing about these piles is that people rake their yards and place their piles on the side of the road. They're not supposed to...

New digs. Yep. I'm in. And as you will soon be able to see (sorry that I didn't do a before and after) I am cozy as a bug in a Spokane rug. And it is quite rugged, i might add. Anyway. We have insulated this little enclave so much so that I have not had to use my space heater. It is quite a nice little cozy room. Although I do have to admit, it is a little bare. I have not got any art up, neither do I have my little bulletin boards or magnetic thingies so I can .. you know, post up all the people I love and gaze at you all longlingly. Oh yes. This morning I was just minding my own business, and all you computer people who know computers know that people make mistakes not computers. Well anyway, the computer made it's own independent decision to give me a slide show of a file of pictures that i am about to print. Yes, I'm not sure how. Instead of "sleeping" and a black screen, i saw all my peeps and nephews and nieces and i watched and it was beautiful and I...
