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.”

I’ve been working on a couple of entries/projects: – I’ve taken a good number of pictures at the local preserve, and hope to take some more today or tomorrow. Leaves are peaking here now, and even on an overcast day some of the oranges and yellows glow of their own accord, as though some of…
Saturday Blues.
The day starts slowly. The Professor didn’t come to bed until 5:00 a.m.. This means I won’t see him until one at the earliest. The first words out of his mouth will be “I’m hungry“. By the time he gets his act together it will be two. By the time we figure out where he…
Relapse
I can’t seem to shake this thing, whatever it is. I barely made it through the morning, and when my doctor’s office called to say they needed some bloodwork on me to day, I used it as an excuse to take the rest of the day off, even though I had plenty of time to…
Garam Masala (thanks ChinaPink)
OK, last night I cleaned the dishes in the sink, prepared stew from scratch, made cous cous and salads, set the table, served the meal, cleared off the table, put the food away, cleaned the dishes. Just noting that for the record. Anything else I could say would be the moral equivalent of beating a…
Sleep, Rain, Keywords and Kittens
Today started off quite slowly, and has managed to stay that way so far. I woke to the sound of rain against the windows of the bedroom. Checking the time, I was amazed to find it was 12:30 in the afternoon. I had a fair amount of sleep to catch up on, but I don’t…

I just put my name on a volunteer list for clean-up for the Gulf oil spill. I took the optional wildlife courses in vet school, and have some basic knowledge of what the grunt work would be on site, so I figure that makes me useful. If they want me I could be on my…
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!!
