I gave Shadow a bath, so her back feathers were spiked up. Afterwards, I was cleaning her cage. She likes to throw water when the vacuum was on, so I pulled the bowl outside of the cage. She came out anyways and threw water at me.
I got a perfect score on my second quiz in Disaster Response & Recovery. Most of the class missed #24, but not me!
Also, while I’m bragging, I’ll add that I could very well have been the only person in class to do so well. The professor read some statistics about the quiz, saying the best score was 24 of 25. Then, my classmates sitting around me said, “Leia got 25 of 25!” I turned as red as my sweater.
Let’s hope my good grade streak carries into next week, when I should get a test back.

It’s really official this time. Blogging is no longer cutting edge.
My March 2005 Reader’s Digest arrived today and contains the following articlette on page 22:
Power to the Pod People
We knew iPods had seized pop culture when ski helmets became MP3 player-compatible. Now iPods don’t deliver just tunes. Shows such as public radio’s “Future Tense” turn their broadcasts into “podcasts” — recorded sound files iPod users can enjoy when they please. But you don’t need to be a pro to podcast. Anyone can post files at sites such as ipodder.org. Perhaps podcasts will become the blogs of 2005, though most, alas, sound like public access cable.
I was surprised to see a mention of podcasting and floored to see them so casually compare them to blogs as if it was something you might see joked about in Life in These United States.
Love is peace. In the pew at church last Sunday.
Look, mom! It’s the result of my first quiz! I got a check!
5% of my grade down, 95% to go.
