Themed Reading: WWII | Michelle Rigby
https://michellerigby.wordpress.com/2009/10/19/themed-reading-wwii
October 19, 2009. Three of my latest reads have centered around events of WWII, and since I’ve had a lack of desire/time to blog lately, I’m writing about all at once. By Chaim Potok is the story of Reuven Malter and his best friend, Danny Saunders. Reuven and Danny come from the Orthodox Jewish community in Brooklyn, though their upbringing is surprisingly different: Danny grows up in a Hasidic community, where he is expected to take his father’s place as tzaddik. A Storm in June. Tells of various Paris...

C's Inner Monologue: February 2009
http://cinnermonologue.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 17, 2009. I've been neglecting you again but really I haven't been inspired to write. Since I'm not a great writer anyway when I try to force a post it comes out plodding and boring with no real point. So really it's not laziness, I'm saving you the trouble of reading something bad, or something. It was really nice. Besides a quick trip to the hospital to see The Captain's grandmother (she's ok. Links to this post. Wednesday, February 11, 2009. What I thought: Yum, and yuck. With 4 stro...

San Francisco | Michelle Rigby
https://michellerigby.wordpress.com/2009/10/20/san-francisco
October 20, 2009. A month…two months ago, I was rejoicing in anticipation of a last-minute road trip to San Francisco for Labor day weekend. And then, I seemingly dropped off the planet, or the blogging planet at least. Having finally downloaded and edited the San Fran pics, I’m posting some very belated highlights of the trip. Our drive west…. The Oakland California temple…. At the Orpheum theater…. Golden Gate bridge…. 8230;and Alcatraz…. From → Adventures. Larr; Themed Reading: WWII. New Format →.

Cleaning & Goal Review | Michelle Rigby
https://michellerigby.wordpress.com/2010/01/28/cleaning-goal-review
Cleaning and Goal Review. January 28, 2010. Something turned me onto organizing/dejunking tonight, and so I cracked open some boxes filled with an assortment of papers from years past. These exercises usually prove relatively fruitless: I spend 2 hours reminiscing on memories and eliminate about 10% of the stuff. If so, guess what? A couple things really, really cracked me up. First, “Ways I need to improve to be a wonderful eternal companion! So clearly I need to learn a lot in the next 2 1/2 months.

The Magician’s Elephant by Kate DiCamillo | Michelle Rigby
https://michellerigby.wordpress.com/2009/11/24/the-magicians-elephant
The Magician’s Elephant by Kate DiCamillo. November 24, 2009. I liked this book, though maybe not as much as. The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane. This is the story of an orphan boy. He remembers his family: loving parents and an infant sister and misses them. One day, on a whim, he stops by a fortune teller’s tent and spends his pocket change to hear the amazing revelation that his sister lives and that he must follow the elephant to find her.

New Format | Michelle Rigby
https://michellerigby.wordpress.com/2009/11/24/new-format
November 24, 2009. A few months ago I started subscribing to various book blogs. There’s one major perk to these additions to my Google Reader: lots of great book recommendations. I’m still paring down, trying to find the bloggers whose recommendations are best given my personal preferences. Until then, I’ve got a “Unread” count that is perpetually overwhelming. But that is the story for another day. With these thoughts, I’ve decided a few things about the books I write about:. From → Books. The Magician...

Live Chat-Bots | Michelle Rigby
https://michellerigby.wordpress.com/2009/12/10/live-chat-bots
December 10, 2009. I was doing some online Christmas shopping today. The product (color) I wanted wasn’t available on the company’s website, so I attempted a Google search to locate other potential sellers. This led me to the company’s CANADIAN website, which actually had the item I wanted — and on sale, but no ability to ship outside of Canada. 8212;-long pause —. Perhaps I have to respond? CSR: My my is Jason, and I am available to help you. 8212;-another long pause—-. What does that mean? 8212;-{Disco...
