What made you smile today?


Recommended Posts

I went to The Pig the other night (barbecue / social house) with my son, who just turned 13.  It's generally a grownup place, but does allow kids, and I've been talking about how it is hands-down the best Western cuisine (barbecued meat and potatoes and slaw) in town. I've been trying to take him since last year, but it had a brief problem with.. burning down.  BUT It's back, and we went.  I didn't mention it also has the prettiest waitresses in town, and my son is awkward even for an introverted 13-year old boy.  It was kind of awesome to watch, and the watress was super-nice trying to get him to talk.

This is awesome 

 

 

and I would look like Jabba the Hut if I lived there!

Not today, per se, but lately:

- getting a shower and putting on clean clothes

- every time LeechBlock, a Firefox addon, blocks a site I'm not supposed to slip checking because I'm working,

a small, faint smile tugs my lips: "Procrastination habit, I got you this time."

So for my job, I have to take papers that are corrected by someone else, think red pen in school, and then make the changes digitally to those sheets.

 

Right now I have 1 set of pages, copied two times, being worked on my two correctors, that I just put through the system. I already know they're not the same changes on both sheets, and I know it's probably coming back... it's one of those days that you just gotta smile before you choke someone.

Talked to an old friend from high school. Nice to hear from her, I think the last time I talked to her was about 2 years ago (when I was a miserable bastard).

Argh. :( They are on my desk at home, and I occasionally look at them and feel bad and then forget to envelope them up.  Argh.  Feel free to send me letter bombs if I don't get those out this weekend!

The cancer was aggressive, but the chemotherapy was aggressive, as well.

There was aggression on both sides.

Good news! The cards are all set to go out.

 

And just to make them EVEN MORE authentically from my house, many of them will be adorned with food stains.  Because my kids.  Oi.

 

One thing, Guzzi... your e-mail addie and delivery name are very different.  Is that a typo on my end, or is that supposed to happen?

My "adopted sister" randomly texted me today and asked if I wanted to go out for coffee or something. It was a delightful surprise, and a very welcome break from spring cleaning.

 

Also, a new kind of peacock spider was discovered recently in Queensland and named the Sparklemuffin spider. Its mating dance looks like drunk dancing. (The whole video is fun to watch, but start it at 3 min. for Sparklemuffin hilarity.)
