Here it is way past my bedtime, and I’m still awake and on the computer. I had a long day today, and have an even longer day tomorrow, so I really do need to get to sleep. I mean, tomorrow I get to do a presentation before some of the Pharmacy faculty, and then teach [...]
I hate computers.
That is all, please carry on with the rest of your day.
While I am amused by the “Things that Irk Me” Lists and understand how cathartic they can be, it’s not safe for me to think about things that either make me sad or make me angry, as I don’t need to make myself more sad or angry than I already am.
So instead, you get a [...]
But I’m obviously not.
We went to see Wanted, and were the only people in the theater. (15 minutes of commercials/previews, but the movie was five minutes late getting started. Perhaps the projectionist was off doing something untoward.)
First, I KNOW better than to sit so close to the screen. 3/4 of the way back is best, [...]
Longevity checks came today!
(happy dance)
Another busy morning at work, and then Michael and I are taking the afternoon off. Probably going to go to the movies, but who knows for sure?
Why today? Because this is pretty much the last chance for him to take any time off until after the semester starts.
Feel free to entertain yourselves in the [...]
I know a good meme to swipe when I see one!
As requested elsewhere, he is our favorite chocolate pudding recipe. It’s easy enough that Michael was able to make it by himself when I had the flu.
The recipe comes from Nancy Baggett’s All American Dessert Book, which has fast become one of the first [...]
Happy Rain Day!
This years hat bettor is Luke Ravenstahl, mayor of Pittsburgh.
I’m somewhat startled to discover that I have at least three illiterate dogs taking my polls.
Kit is in trouble with Grandmom. Her furriness did not come upstairs at all today to talk to Grandmom, so when we got home, Grandmom was yelling down the stairs asking if the cats were ok, since she hadn’t seen them all day.
With that, Kit went sauntering up the stairs.
So why was Kit in the [...]
In the atrium/lobby area of our portion of the facility there are two types of lights. Large lights hanging the ceiling and slightly smaller metal lights attached to the walls.
Over the weekend, one of lights attached to the wall fell down.
If you look at it, you can see that the contracts did NOT, in fact, [...]
He saw the teeth sitting on the glass shelf when he walked into the bathroom. His hand immediately came up to his mouth, as if there was a possibility someone could have stolen his teeth while he was asleep.

Here’s the weeks flower pr0n. Apparently only yellow flowers are blooming right now.

I was just doing bills, looked at Quicken, and realized we have only two payments left on our car.
TWO!
Then it’s ours, free and clear, and that’s extra money that can go into savings. Or pay for our trips this fall. Or pay for the new wood stove.
AWESOME!
Our plans are to go to the movies and see Hellboy.
Keep your fingers crossed for us, that we actually make it there.
ADDENDUM the First:
20 minutes of commercials and previews. Grr. Though at $5.75 for a ticket, guess I can’t complain that much.
It was fun.
We enjoyed ourselves thoroughly, especially since there were only a [...]
A friend had an excellent post come pouring out, but did not want the post to appear on their own site, for fear of upsetting loved ones. So I am posting it here. I will also post any comments or responses the author has to make, anonymously, if the author so desires.
And I may steal [...]
Yet it I am still continually surprised.
First and foremost, and the on-going game of Word Association is 1) Still on-going and 2) Becoming one of my top posts.
Second, by today’s search terms.
And it took me quite awhile to figure out where that search term came from.
Almost forgot. This weekend is MountainFest.
If they come over this way, I’ll take pictures, but so far I’ve only seen a handful of bikes at a time.
Quizzy Goodness!
Dunedain!

For all his brutish tendencies, I still sometimes see Kat doing something and squeal, “He’s so cute!”
When he’s sleeping I try to squeal quietly.
Kit gets some attention this week.
But she has to share the spotlight with Michael on his birthday.
And with Grandmom, just because.
Kit pays very close attention to Grandmom throughout the day, for [...]
