Ah, insomnia… I’ve got something weighing heavy on my mind… it’s always heavy on my mind. Sometimes it leads me to unhealthy amounts of sleep. Other times it deprives me of it altogether. Anyway, instead of needlessly bitching about it, (”No use crying over spilled milk”, someone once said to me) I’ll talk about other things…
I met with “my kid” (whom I will call “Steven” for confidentiality purposes) yesterday. I think it went quite well. The 13-page report - complete with the results of a battery of psychological assessments - led me to expect a very different child than the one I actually encountered. This is a very good thing. He far exceeded the portrait the report provided.
I got to..GRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!! It appears that the power supply for my laptop is taking a dive. I’m currently dealing with a sporadically flashing light that is horribly distracting. To make matters worse, the battery on this thing no longer holds a charge. I’m going to have to be brief. I may not be able to finish this post without the event of a seizure…
I’ll tell you about Steven another time, I guess. This is going to make script writing difficult.
For now, I wanted to let everyone know that we received an email from the reporter that interviewed us. Sadly, it would appear that her editor has decided to shelf the article. Apparently the reporter had trouble compiling enough content outside of our project to support the article. She did, however, say that she was looking into the possibility of writing a piece about our project specifically. She didn’t want our interview to go to waste. We’ll see what she can come up with.

Hope it works out! Gah, I jumped to the movie “Batteries Not Included” when I read the title of that.
