\t\t\t\t\t\t     OK.. I’m bored…. really, really bored.  and I think that’s perfect.  I’m now on week number 2 of my two weeks off and I needed to do nothing for awhile. I needed last week. Sam’s memorial week was hard on me.. and I wasn’t going to get anything done.. anyway.. This week  I’mm hoping that the time off will  recharge me somehow .. and maybe help me find some new spark.. some new inspiration on how I should be directing my life’s energy.. .  I’m trying to get back to a point where I’m clear on my intentions… that usually works. This time last year I was much clearer on where I wanted to go.  I put my intentions ‘out there’  regardign working with kids and science.. and a ton of opportunities landed in my lap..   I need that abundance of ideas now… Diane pointed out that demanding inspiration right now is so ‘left brained’.. Real inspiration usually comes when you’re not looking for it… I haven’t found it yet.. but boredom is a great first step.
    So.. what DID I do today… anything ? … I built  a cool linux workstation for my lab… it’s giving me music out in the lab and is  hooked up to one of my robots and to some of my lab instruments.. and I dug up the inspection port of our septic system. I think that was it… oh.. and I took the dogs for a run. I’ts about 7PM and I’m still in my jammies… Now that’s a vacation day…
    One thing that did happen today is that I learned my new nephews name… Theodore Howard Liddicoat…
Sounds like a statesmen f!   I think they’re going to call him ‘Theo’.    I was wondering about the popularity of those names so I found a baby name wizard… Here’s what it showed.    Theodore was popular areound the time of Teddy Roosevelt… no suprise there…<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

    <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n
Theo can be a girl or a boys nickname… it also spiekd in the early 20th centruy. I liek the sound of it. While it’s Th-E-O.. here.. I think it’s T-e-o…  in ohter parts of the world (can anyone verify that for me ? )<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

The baby’s middle name, Howard  has had a good spread over the last 100 years…<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

All of those names are much more common than Cucaracha, the name that his sister conferd upon him the day of his birth… I think I’m calling him that <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

OK… folks.. THat’s it for me.. time to go do some more nothing !.. Love you all.. Love you Sam..
