Reverse is his default gear now, as made clear by his advice to would-be palindromists, who, Duncan says, should begin by reversing everything: “Every word you see, every word you hear, every word you read, every word you write. And I’m not exaggerating when I say that all day, and all night, that’s what I’m doing.

The Believer - Doubling in the Middle

I apparently have the beginnings of a palindromist. Ever since I read about a charecter (I think in Babysitter’s Club, of course) who reversed words as a kind of trick, its been a weird mental tick of mine to do this.

Less lately. Thinking about teaching has become more my default mental activity. But subconsciously flipping words- still a very odd little habit.

Two Things:

1) HELP- does anyone remember that really lovely blog post that made a story out of “Party in the USA” and it went a little bit viral? I read it and loved it and want to re-read it but can’t find it saved in my blog or my delicious. I am getting very agitated.

2) After two years of my theme annoying me because the “p” in Swamp was touching the top of my about box, today I finally got my act together and looked up the CSS code to make the margins on the title box bigger. This is like the time I taught myself how to autofill seperate tabs on a google doc.

CompSci 4: More useful than I realized it was going to be, in the long run.

I am immensely proud of myself for this.

A Girl You Should Date « nona merah

Date a girl who reads. Date a girl who spends her money on books instead of clothes. She has problems with closet space because she has too many books. Date a girl who has a list of books she wants to read, who has had a library card since she was twelve.
