Limbo

Once again I find myself in limbo, in that waiting period between times, when my days are mostly mine own, the ToDo lists short & sweet and not that important, the next phase awaits: final semester and set of hoops for getting my Multiple Subject aka Elementary Ed Teaching Credential (student teaching & portfolio evidencing my completion at mastery level 2 of the 13 TPEs blah blah blah), the previous one's done (abortive attempt at Student Teaching). Been helping friends move. Bookending moves in fact: Elise outta coo-el Newhall casa and Dean into it. Six (6) full weeks left of proto-pure freedom. Will squeeze much fun into them...and squeeze much fun outta life (and those 'round me) in this time. Hmm, squeezing's not quite right... See it more as massaging, as facilitating, as taking strands and running with them, as finding opportunities and...don't like to say exploiting 'em, but that's nearly what 'tis: making the most outta what I'm presented with... I savour time. Bubbeye for now, folks!

Charlie & The Chocolate Factory (2005)

I LOVE the original ('member, back from 1971). Not sure yet what to make of the new one brought to us by Tim Burton with Johnny Depp as WW himself. Check out the trailer and tell me whatcha think:
