Cricket
I finally got some good pictures of the latest acquisition from Jungle Jim’s, made when we were in Cincinnati for Andy and Heather’s wedding.
I’m not planning on eating it, but if anyone is interested: it’s sugar-free!

Random Pictures
Hadn’t had much of a chance to go through any of the pictures I’d taken this fall.
Pictures taken at my grandmother’s house.
I also got a couple of senic pictures on the way home–the weather however didn’t really cooperate, so despite the beautiful fall color, I got few pictures.

Earlier
Me: Michael?
Michael: What?
Where are you?
I’m in the basement.
What are you doing?
I’m looking for my eye.
Oh.
(pause)
Me: That reminds me, have you seen my big stick?
Michael: I can’t look for yout big stick until I find my eye!
(later)
Michael: AAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! (holds out eye)

Damn
Just talked to my parents. Cousin Pat’s cancer has spread. It’s now in her adrenal system and other nodes near her heart.
They’re talking about other experimental studies and treatment, since the study she wanted to enter required enterants to be cancer free.
Damn.
Dreams
I had a strange dream last night. It’d been awhile since I’d had one, so despite the weirdness, I rather enjoyed it.

Science News:
HOBBITS!
One for the Tinfoil Hat Brigade
The DA has an interesting article on a recently publiched book about UFO sightings in Flatwoods.
Because they don’t think we’re crazy enough here in WV as it is…
Listening
I wish someone would explain to me why in Windows XP, you still need to go to DOS to create a text file of a directory list. Stupid.
Meanwhile, here’s what I’ve been listening when I walk:

Gah
When I left work today, that jackass Warner was politicking in front of Health Sciences. Despite tremendous urges to the contrary, I did not walk over and spit on him.
Although I really wanted to.
That the biggest slumlord in Morgantown can claim that he will be a good steward of the state astounds me. Does [...]

Land of Crazy People
I can’t decide if it’s me, or if everyone I know is crazy.
(To this I am sure Michael would reply, “yes.”)
1.
We were watching the 1st game of the World Series (my dad loves baseball) at my grandmother’s house. She doesn’t have cable, so the signal was coming in from her antenna. The picture would occasionally [...]

Ack! Ack!
I realized when we got home last night that I had not realized that I am buried under a huge pile of work, both for work and school.
I’m sure this is because over the weekend I came up with about 6 different things I wanted to write about.
Mornings with Grandmom
One of the nice things about visiting Grandmom, is that we are usually the first two people wup, and so I get to spend time with her in the morning, just sitting and talking.
We don’t necessarily discuss anything of consequence, we just sit and chat.
It’s a long-standing tradition. Grandmom says that when I was [...]

Tired, But Content
Just got back from Baltimore and visiting my grandmother. It was a good visit (they all are, really) although we were pretty busy the whole time we were there, and didn’t get home to 7, so I’m pretty tired.
We visited with cousin Pat, and I got to hear from here how things are, and how [...]

Fireworked
I’ve mentioned before that we live close to the stadium.
Sometimes there are advantages.
Plus, being stuck at home was a good excuse to make chocolate biscotti.
The only disapointment is that we’re not close enough to hear the band.
Political Madness
That time is fast approaching, so in preparation:
Why I don’t like Bush

Election Information
Project Vote Smart
CNN’s Voting Coverage 2004
Faiths versus Works and Heresies Galore
Teresa at Making Light has been posting like crazy. In addition to the post I mentioned yesterday, she’s also talking about Catholicism and Bush.
I’ve been saying for awhile that I don’t understand how anyone who is Catholic can support Bush–especially since he’s even failing the abortion litmus test.
Dreams
I’ve had the oddest dreams recently. Not that my dreams aren’t normally odd mind you, but still.
Earlier this week I woke up with the feeling that I had spent the entire night running away from people and things in different dreams. The only unifying theme was that I was constantly trying to get away.
The follwoing [...]

What’s Going On
Who wants to know what’s going on? (Sorry–brief movie flash)
It’s been a strange week. I’m actually quite busy at work, with a substantial project on my desk right now. But it’s a fun project, so I’m not upset, I just feel like I’m firing on all cylinders all day long.
As far as school goes, [...]
CEO President
You MUST read this post from Making Light.
I’d comment myself but:
No time! No time!

Poetry, Also
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their [...]
