Door, Take 2

We now have curtains and inside trim. And that’s going to be it until the weekend at the earliest. It’s raining today. It’s supposed rain tomorrow. In fact, it’s supposed to rain the rest of the week. So perhaps this weekend we will take care of the outside stuff. Or perhaps not.

Answered

We came home last night to the following message on our answering machine: “Hey, I got the wrong number, sorry, but what a great message!” I had to listen to the message, because I had no idea what message I’d done. Oddly enough, I thought the message on the cell phone voice mail was more amusing, but [...]

End-of-Life Care

One of the reasons I have not been writing a great deal recently, is because I have been working on the paper due in my health policy class. It is a group paper, and the subject is, unsurprisingly, End-of-Life Care Policy, with my portion of the paper/project focused upon hospice. What I find so disturbing about [...]

Pardon Me, I Need to Go Get Some Wooden Pencils

Went to check my horoscope today, and read this: Cancer (June 21 – July 22) You might consider picking up some holy water and a few stout wooden stakes. They’ll come in handy soon, although I’m not sure how. I laughed, and then read this to Gina, who sits right next to me. Gina also [...]

Pictures of Stuff

Pictures of our travels. Pictures of the work we did to be guest bedroom. Pictures of replacing the hood over the stove.

Free to a Good Home

We took three bags of books to The Bookshelf last night. Came home with half a bag that he didn’t need, so if anyone is interested, the following books are available, free to a good home. Sorry there is not any Fantasy/Science Fiction, but Jim always takes anything in that category, as well as any [...]

Riflery

WVU’s Riflery team will, as of July 2004, be reinstated as an athletic team. It took a $100,000 grant from the state legislature, but Hardesty finally got the point. It never made any sense to me why the programs that were chosen were cut. Riflery is for men and women, which makes it a good Title [...]

Geek Alert!

To celebrate/mourn the fact that Michael and I finally finished watching Deep Space Nine, here is a list of some of my favorite Garak quotes, starting with: “I believe in coincidence. Coincidences happen every day. But I don’t trust coincidences.”

Green Green

Once I left the windowless room where I work, I realized that it was absolutely beautiful outside. Days like this make the lab a blessing and a curse, I don’t know how beautiful the weather is to enjoy it, but I also know how beautiful the weather is, so I don’t feel trapped inside. Came home [...]

My Vet…

… is the best. Dr. Minger’s office sent us flowers in momory of Slate. That’s really above and beyond the call of duty.

Woe is the Sandman

Well, not really, but it amused me to squoosh together the titles of the two books I’ve finished recently (assuming that by recently you accept “in the past month or so”) Woe is I: The Grammarphobe’s Guide to Better English in Plain English by Patricia T. O’Conner I picked this book up several years ago, but had [...]

Time is Running Out!

Friday is the last day to vote for the WV state quarter! If we don’t do our civic duty to vote, we as a state may be stuck with the horrible “Appalachian Warmth” quarter. Remember, this is for posterity, so be honest.

Tiddly POM!

It was Tiddly POM! Thanks Epacris! This was Piglet’s song (Tiddly Pom) The more it goes (Tiddly Pom) The more it goes (Tiddly Pom) On snowing. And nobody knows (Tiddly Pom) How cold my toes (Tiddly Pom) How cold my toes (Tiddly Pom) Are growing. The more it snows (Tiddly Pom) The more it goes (Tiddly Pom) The more it goes (Tiddly Pom) On snowing. And nobody knows (Tiddly Pom) How gold my toes (Tiddly Pom) How cold my toes (Tiddly Pom) Are [...]

Tiddly Tiddly

I have a vague memory of Tiddly Tiddly being something from Winnie the Pooh, but it is entirely possible that this is something my brain made up entirely. Regardless, I think it’s a Tiddly Tuesday. I almost forgot to post today, as I spent a great deal of time writing and editing other stuff (work stuff, school [...]

Stuff and Stuff and Stuff and Stuff

It would be perhaps a bit of a understatement to say that I was not ready to go back to work. Despite that, vacation is over, so back to work and back to school. As far as house projects, the bedroom is done, and I think it looks quite nice, even if I do say so [...]

Slate

Slate died this morning. I’d been expecting it, as she’d barely been eating all week, and last night she wasn’t even interested in eating treats. When we got up this morning she was barely moving and was having trouble breathing. We took her to the vet, because I was worried that the breathing was causing [...]

That’s It?!

THIS is the big winter storm that drove us home early? Sheesh. On other fronts, the cats definitely want my dad to feed them on a regular basis. Guess my mom has fed them previous times we’ve been gone, because my dad was apparently unable to find the bins of cat food, and instead fed them the [...]

Back from Baltimore

It’s Monday night and we’re heading back from Baltimore. We had planned on staying until Tuesday, but the weathermen have been calling for gloom, doom, and snowstorms. I should have expected it. This is, after all, WVU’s spring break. (more…)

Baltimore Food

It’s vacation time. That means that even if we don’t visit tropical hot spots or any place any otherhuman would find to be a nice vacation spot, we will go out of our way to get good food. (more…)
