Hello iPad

| Finally figured how to upload bloody picture |
Back on the Frankennetbook now. I am absolutely whacked after a day of trying to teach seven year olds to maypole dance. Honestly, it is far trickier than it seems. I'm not even going to go into it. This photo i took on the iPad shows all my wrinkles. I do not like it. I was at the Apple store and the person who was seeling us the iPad looked like Edward Norton. I have a slight crush on Edward Norton, so it was quite difficult concentrating on his pitch on the Macbook Air. Also he was like 14 years old. Well, ok 26. He was also about 6'3". Yep.
It is v odd. Most of the young folk in the Apple store speak with an American accent. Do they have to go to California to get their accents? Or do they learn it on Facetime? they also seemed to come with a standard issue piercing or tattoo. The Edward Norton character had a slightly askew baseball hat which made him look like an idiot. I did not want to tell him this. He was also carrying around a bottle of lens cleaner as if it was an ESPA spriter.
They also have their weird way of talking which is sort of in between used car salesperson and massues. However that may be spelt. It is supposed to have a soporific effect to lull you into buying whatever it is they wanted you to. Again i am not convinced. I had far more questions about them than the product they were selling. Such as, are you from Belfast? If you are from Belfast why are you talking like that? Do you think talking like that will make me buy the thing you are selling more? Do you breathe through gills? Is there an inhalation/exhalation process or are you like a bird which only inhales?
What was most disconcerting was how the sales staff seemed to be attached to several electronic gagdets at the same time. They had their iPads and these weird communicator things which also appeared to be able to take money off you. One of them asked me as i went to pay, do you have an iPhone? I said, er...no because i was worried it was a pitch but it turns out you can pay by iPhone. I do fine th world of Mac slightly sinister. I don't care how many Edward Nortons they deploy. Weird is weird.
Today, Part Two
It is really REALLY amazingly beautiful today. Well, so much has happened and today when i went to school i felt very...its hard to find the words for it. Anyhow, i feel really very like i need to get on with my life. So, as of tomorrow, the organisation restarts again.
SO: I'm going to start cleaning the house again - this has been mostly left to my mom and while it is clean it is also cluttering up. There needs to be lots of cleaning and tidying done. The HRF diet begins again too. I've sort of let to go over the last two weeks and have probably put on a coupla pound. Nevermind. The gym needs to start up too. And of course the admin, the course, etc. God where does one find the time?
Well, i read the lecture series given by Steiner last nite about the fifth gospel. It was very interesting. Which is all i'm going to say about it.
Right. LOADS and LOADS to be done now. Time to start. i'm gonna go to the gym, do some working out, have a sauna and then a swim. Yep. Then home to start thinking about where i should begin.
