Everything is Ducky.
I glumly related to The Socialist this evening that I realized that the concert date was on a night he was scheduled to teach. He paused and thought a moment and then said, “No it’s not. We have Spring Break that week.”

This Day, Last Year
I don’t know the details. I may never know the details. I’m not certain I want to know the details. But one year ago today a family lost their thirteen-year-old son or daughter. I’ve always imagined it was a boy, but I don’t know this; it’s just an idea that has lodged itself in my…
Wasted day.
Last night I called and cancelled my seminar, called work to say I’d not be in at all, took my sleeping pill, and crashed. It felt so good I may just take another one tonight. I do plan to go to work tomorrow though. I have no further days off to take. Today was spent…
Getting better
I’m feeling a bit better today, but it still feels like I’ve been hit by a very large freight train. Since I’m still running a low-grade temperature, I took today off as well. I’ll be back to work tomorrow though, regardless. To answer questions: From: toverfeeDate Posted: 9 Jun 2004 Your sick days take away…
Why Anneal
When I was a kid, fried marble jewelry was big. I doubt many of my readers remember the gawdawful bracelets and necklaces we made using fried marbles, but I remember with particular pride a lime-green bracelet I made all on my very own when I was maybe eight or nine. One fries marbles by heating…
Impressions of Life
While walking from the main building to my office yesterday evening, I watched grey storm clouds jostling for position over my head. A red-tail hawk soared into view, surfing the edge of the storm front. Tail and wings fully spread, he could have been a kite without a string. Other birds had taken cover from…
Lima beans for dinner
I was off work all day yesterday to get some hospital tests done. I had an echocardiogram done, the results of which I won’t know until next week. I also had a pulmonary function test done. I won’t know the final results of that one until next week as well, but I do know that…
You gave me a good laugh. The kitty and the replacement phenomenon. Me too, me too.
I USED, to be around a dunder head who was forever going on about how tired she was due to all the volunteer time she put in. (She didn’t feel appreciated either, boo hoo hoo) One hour of selling raffle tickets at the door and 6 hours of her griping about how hard she worked.
You -will- find someone to go with you, through the sheer force of my desire. Don’t stop asking.
It’s a realy shame that The Mouth doesn’t have A Brain. >:(
I have no idea who you’re talking about but I would go, just to go….too bad I’m so far away!

Maybe you were dreaming you were awake?
I don’t suppose you could go to see Dar with one of your sisters? Or would that be too much torture?

your workmate sounds entirely obnoxious
it wouldn’t surprise me if one of the rules of the universe states that in every work place it is compulsory to have such a person as the Mouth. we have a few of those people here, one in particular is notoriously difficult to work with. this person makes tidal waves if they do not get their own way all of the time
as for your liver transplant, not something necessarily easy to face but you sound like you are taking it all in stride. that’s really commendable, good for you
thanks for the comments. it makes one wonder how self-involved 2 people can be to have a wednesday wedding hundreds of miles from home!
take care 🙂

I’d go to see DW with you to brighten up an already bright event. I’m far from everybody, now! Well, I’m close to Tex and that makes up for the rest ;o)
– How is it that I can be insomniac and wide-awake at 6:00 a.m. only to be jolted out of a deep sleep at 6:30 a.m. by my alarm clock?
A: You relax when you know the nights almost over, and fall asleep.
– Why is the Kitten’s favorite place to sleep while I’m at the computer directly behind the wheels of my chair?
A: Because that’s where she finally gets exhausted after doing all that stuff behind your back
– How do the disc jockeys know how to time things so that the first thing I hear when I turn on the radio is the last ten seconds of my favorite song?
A: It’s taught in 400 level DJ courses at their secret DJ university
– Why is Cattitude’s affection for any given food item in direct proportion to the likelihood it will make her throw up?
A: It’s part of their charm
– Is it a requirement that I will only be able to figure out where I put some pricey item after I’ve gone out and purchased a replacement for it?
A: It’s not a requirement, but it is a "suggestion"
– What cosmic karma ensures that my Mr. Coffee at work will die the final death five seconds after the onset of my most intense caffeine craving in months?
A: The warranty just expired
Very awesome that you will both be able to go!

LOL at Shay’s answers.
Glad you and the Socialist get to enjoy the concert together after all. Spring break for us is this week.
Shame, shame, shame on your coworker. Hope you don’t catch her cold. Let me see her vocal cords, I only need one more intubation. 😉
You know, it is not possible at all to buy any Dar Williams CD’s here. I asked at a music shop and they wanted about a extra $30.00 ($15USA) on top of the overinflated price, to have one sent out!!
Its pathetic, cos the words of her songs and the little I have heard on the net is awesome.
Dar Williams RULES.
You’ll love her show! Even if you do have to go alone!!
